Top and Bottom 50 Movies

I pretty much hate any kind of listing shows that are on TV right now, but that's not because I hate lists, it's because I was way into listing things like 3 years ago before all these shows came along. Yeah, that's right, I invented listing things.

Back in uiniversity some friends and I finalized our lists of 100 favourite movies in order. Since then my list has changed and I thought I should revisit the epic undertaking. This blog will now be used to publicly announce this updated top movies list, this time with a twist: I'll include the top 50 favourites, alongside the top 50 least favourite. That should make it a bit more interesting. Alright here we go:
FAVOURITE
#50
South Park: Bigger, Longer and Uncut
Musicals suck. They suck pretty bad. Unless we're talking about the live version of Phantom of the Opera starring Kiss frontman Paul Stanley, they suck SO bad. South Park luckily breaks the shitty mould with a wicked funny movie that manages to not annoy me with song.
That being said, this movie should be called "Terrance & Philip: Asses of Fire" not only because that's one of the funniest jokes in the movie, but because without Terrance and Philip this movie isn't half as funny. Don't get me wrong, the standard set of Cartman, Stan, Kyle and Kenny have their share of great moments, but it's the flapping headed Canadians that really deliver. Fart jokes are funny - and Trey Parker and Matt Stone know that for all the political and social commentary in the world, farts are the best.
