As none of you have surely noticed, we've yet to finish the TMS Top 30 Movies list. The original end date was last Christmas. We apologize. We've decided to pull a Kevorkian and end this lifeless idea. Better late than never. We left off at #13, Predator. On to the rest...
#12: Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang
This film marks Robert Downey Jr.'s triumphant return to notoriety. A damn good film, with the added bonus of Val Kilmer playing a homosexual private eye named Gay Perry.
Actor/Actress the Bartenders Would Most Like to Bed: Michelle Monaghan
Honorable Mention: Corbin Bernsen
#11: Good Will Hunting
Oh, you know who wrote this and starred in it. A fine film, regardless of Ben Affleck's presence.
Actor/Actress the Bartenders Would Most Like to Bed: Robin Williams
Honorable Mention: Matt Damon
#10: The Blues Brothers
One of the only musicals a man should ever watch. Near and dear to anyone that is from Chicago or loves Chicago.
Actor/Actress the Bartenders Would Most Like to Bed: Aretha Franklin
Honorable Mention: Ray Charles (alive)
#9: Lord of the Rings: Return of the King
Though the trilogy kicked ass, this is the one that finally got the Oscar love. Viggo Mortensen is dreamy, but I hated that whole cop-out with the green ghosts suddenly showing up and killing all the bad guys.
Actor/Actress the Bartenders Would Most Like to Bed: Billy Boyd
Honorable Mention: Sir Ian McKellen
#8: Schindler's List
Utterly depressing. But you know, good in that way that monumental movies are supposed to be.
Actor/Actress the Bartenders Would Most Like to Bed: Embeth Davidtz
Honorable Mention: Ben Kingsley
#7: Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
Never saw it. Heard it was good though.
Actor/Actress the Bartenders Would Most Like to Bed: Kate Winslet
Honorable Mention: Elijah Wood
#6: Pulp Fiction
One of the classics of our high school/college years. Tarantino hasn't done anything of quality since this one.
Actor/Actress the Bartenders Would Most Like to Bed: Bruce Willis
Honorable Mention: Bruce Willis
#5: The Royal Tenenbaums
This is still Wes Anderson's masterpiece, and will probably never be eclipsed. A fantastic ensemble where Gene Hackman shines and Ben Stiller is actually funny because he's not supposed to be funny.
Actor/Actress the Bartenders Would Most Like to Bed: Anjelica Huston
Honorable Mention: Gwyneth Paltrow
#4: Seven
Brad Pitt before Brad Pitt was Brad Pitt. Morgan Freeman shines though the movie is bleak, culminating in us putting Gwyneth Paltrow's head in a box after her honorable mention.
Actor/Actress the Bartenders Would Most Like to Bed: The fat guy that died of gluttony
Honorable Mention: Kevin Spacey
#3: Shawshank Redemption
A masterfully emotional film about hope and the triumph of life. Lots of shivs.
Actor/Actress the Bartenders Would Most Like to Bed: Um, Rita Hayworth?
Honorable Mention: Tim Robbins upon first entering the prison
#2: Swingers
The guys movie that taught us everything we need to know about women. Assuming you live in Los Angeles and like the Squirrel Nut Zippers.
Actor/Actress the Bartenders Would Most Like to Bed: Heather Graham
Honorable Mention: Skinny Vince Vaughan
#1: The Big Lebowski
One of the biggest cult classics of all time, and possibly the most quoted movie ever. A bevy of bowling, cultural references, and showdogs with papers.
Actor/Actress the Bartenders Would Most Like to Bed: The Asian Carpet Pisser
Honorable Mention: Tara Reid
