I was making this list for another site since I want to keep track from now on, and as I've done before I thought I might as well post it here too This list is constructed just from memory really, so there may be a couple of mistakes, and they are ordered by U.S./Canadian release dates rather than the order that I saw them (which would be pretty much impossible to recall).

I'll be adding to this every time I see a film that is a first time viewing for me, and I'll likely add a few words too. I didn't think of posting this on here til now so I'll backdate it with the ones I've already seen this year:
Hobo with a Shotgun (2010) - 6/10. Obviously done with the intention of being tongue-in-cheek, but often a bit overindulgent and not really as funny as it's meant to be.
Jason Bourne (2016) - 6/10. A little boring, but this series has never real
Socks with toes on them
The scene in Star Wars when the two Imperial officers decide not to blow up the escape pod because "they do not detect any life forms aboard"
- First of all, they're not even looking for lifeforms, they're looking for the Death Star plans.
- Droids are extremely common in the galaxy anyway so the "not a life form" thing shouldn't matter.
- It's not like they're out of ammo anyway, just shoot the fucking thing. George Lucas' cracks started to show in St
Been watching this show a lot lately and felt like making this list
20. Bart's Comet (S6 E14)
19. The Otto Show (S3 E22)
18. You Only Move Twice (S8 E02)
17. The Springfield Connection (S6 E23)

14. Lemon of Troy (S6 E24)

12. Homer at the Bat (S3 E17)
11. I Love Lisa (S4 E15)
10. The Joy of Sect (S9 E13)
9. Lisa on Ice (S6 E08)
The films that I picked for this list all either have less than an average rating of 6.0 on IMDb or less than 50% on Rotten Tomatoes, and in many cases, both. Personally though, I'd rate all of them at least a solid 7 and many of them even higher for various reasons. I'm not gonna game anything like slasher series (unless it's a reviled entry I happen to like), Transformers or Batman v Superman which are all fairly popular really despite being disliked by critics and would have a significant amo

Just to make this easier, I'm counting everything from PG-13 horror comedies to brutal borderline NC-17 pure horror flicks. However, I am not counting films that simply have some horror themes, but make practically no attempts to be scary whatsoever (Ghostbusters, Army of Darkness, What We Do in the Shadows).
100. Brain Damage (1988)
99. Night of the Demons (1988)
98. When a Stranger Calls (1979)
97. Them! (1954)
96. Pin: A Plastic Nightmare (1988)
95. From D
I have a longer, more detailed list in the works but it's taking a while to put together and I wanna do another one so I made this in the meanwhile. Again, live-action series only.
20. 3rd Rock from the Sun (1996-2001)
19. The Goldbergs (2013-present)
18. The King of Queens (1998-2007)
17. Eastbound & Down (2009-2013)
16. Black-ish (2014-present)
15. Corner Gas (2004-2009)
14. The Office [U.S.] (2005-2013)
13. My Name is Earl (2005-2009)

I did this for another website and I figured I'd back it up here. A minimum of people will probably care but eh, it's already done. If a series is italicised, that means it's an ongoing series that I simply own every released season of thus far, and unless otherwise indicated, these are all DVD.
Complete series:
American Crime Story: The People v. O.J. Simpson
Angel
Arrested Development
Ash vs. Evil Dead (1 on DVD, 2 on iTunes)
Batman: The Animated Series
Birds of Prey

Some of these are better known than others, and two specifically have a lot of martyrdom attached to them due to being cancelled so early on, but ultimately I think still deserve a lot of acclaim.
10. Garfunkel and Oates
This one was more quietly removed and I don't think it really garnered much of a fanbase, but it's an amusing if somewhat uneven show with some very offbeat, non-generic comedy.
Favorite episode: Maturity
9. Clerks: The
Trick or treaters
Super Mario Bros. 3

It's nearly October, so here's some good ones you may not have heard of Many have comedy, sci-fi, thriller mixed in there but they all qualify
Altered States

Brain Damage
A Bucket of Blood

The Company of Wolves
The Curse of the Werewolf
Dagon
The Entity

Frankenstein Unbound

I'm not naming any villains who were kind of bland or generic (Walter Donovan, Malekith) but weren't really a major presence in their respective films or villains that are simply too funny for me to hate (Mr. Freeze). All the ones listed are poorly acted, poorly written characters who definitely drag the films they're in down.
Walker (Stuart Wilson) - Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III
Dr. Claw (Rupert Everett) - Inspector Gadget
Serle
Most/all of these films take some artistic license with the real people they're based on, but I will set some limits. I'm not going to count anything here like Amadeus or Quills (both great movies) that are less biopics and more just fiction loosely based on real historical figures.
And yeah, I'm a whore for Warren Beatty.
20. Schindler's List
19. Quiz Show
18. Catch Me If You Can
17. Raging Bull
16. Tombstone
15. The Soci
Half of you rascals probably don't even remember this format but here it is Again, just backing this up elsewhere and figured I might as well add it here. This is all the stuff I haven't yet bothered to replace on DVD or Blu-ray, so there's a lot of kids' movies and mediocre action films/comedies here...

I hadn't gone to one of these since I was about 15, so when I heard they were putting on one for ten days in my local city (with better rides than I was used to as well, my previous city didn't really get the full treatment), I was pretty excited. I had it in my head that I was gonna try all the badass shit that I was too much of a pussy to go on as a kid, and...I sorta did.
The first thing I tried was one of two rollercoasters that were there, and this line took fucking forever. As

Doctor Strange and Mr. Fantastic (these are somewhat old and you can't take them out of the box without cutting it open, so I won't be doing so)
The Shadow (debated getting the regular version or the Lamont Cranston/Alec Baldwin one that turns into the Shadow, landed on the former). Again, not gonna open it.
Batman (1989) blast shield (action figure included) and Batwing, still boxed.
Movie-based Dick Tracy toys that I ha
I'd specifically avoided naming animated TV series in my other blog entries, so here's me making up for it. I'm counting any kind of animation here - traditional, CGI, stop-motion, whatever. Also counting everything from cartoons with a child target audience to super raunchy, adults-only cartoons, and I'm counting every genre.
20. Harvey Birdman, Attorney at Law (2000-2007)
19. Clerks: The Animated Series (2000-2001)
18. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1987-1996)
17. Ani
Most of these range from improbable to ridiculous... I could probably fill this list with Sly alone!
Sylvester Stallone
- Jerry Savage (Rebel)
- Johnny Kovak (F.I.S.T)
- Deke DaSilva (Nighthawks)
- Robert Hatch (Victory)
- Lincoln Hawk (Over the Top)
- Raymond Tango (Tango & Cash)
- John Spartan (Demolition Man)
- Ray Quick (The Specialist)
- Robert Rath (Assassins)
Seagal has some doozies as well...
