They're only similar in that they fit the Monomyth/Overcoming the Monster Archetype. By that standard almost any movie that features a challenge to be overcome or a lesson to be learnt - that's almost all of them - is basically the same.

Within that Rocky and Star Wars aren't really that similar.

Haven't seen Rocky tbh, was just taking a swing at Breaker's bizarrely wide-ranging list of genres he doesn't see the appeal of Sob

Maybe he just hates films with more than three sequels.

Edit: never mind, just seen Dok's post Laugh

dok the common factor is they are all quite popular and famous films, remember reading the hobbit at primary and enjoying it but I couldn't be hooped with the films

102/250. Apparently not as bad as I'd have assumed.

It's arbitrary but a decent enough yard stick. I'm gonna say anything below 80 is risible.

74/250 I normally watch 1-2 films a week as well Laugh

Tbf there's barely anything points wise between 1st and 250th

**Christian Benorchgrevink** · 09-11-2015, 04:43 AM

Ah makes a bit more sense then

There`s few more that I`ve seen bits of but not the whole thing.

There's a high water mark for normal films on that list. Unless you're horsing through Chaplin, Ghibli and Kurasawa then you'll only ever get so far.

116/250. Surprised myself with a few films I've never got around to seeing.

**Big Physical Acey** · 09-12-2015, 05:09 PM

Straight Outta Compton - 8/10.

Pretty compelling stuff. My favourite parts were the pool parties with largely-naked ladies. Sound

**Gigolo-Aunt** · 09-12-2015, 05:28 PM

Just a shout for the first Rambo film.

For the machine gun nonsense that it turned in to, only one person gets killed in the first film.

A documentary that uses a cache of letters, diaries and documents to reveal the life of SS-leader Heinrich Himmler.

Definetely changed my opinion of him. What thoroughly nice man he was.
