Can you beat my score? I got 94/100 on this list. Leave a comment with your score if you dare. I am especially interested in how someone like MD would score. That would be both sad and pathetic I think.
I got 77... BUT... some of these choices are bewildering. Is All Quiet On The Western Front really an "action" movie? It's a fine, intelligent anti-war film with a certain amount of "action"... but can it be compared to Die Hard / Rambo etc. I don't think so... I wonder if the person compiling the list has ever seen it, or just seen the DVD packaging...
71 for me. I had seen a number of the others on TV or started and just didn't get around to finishing the rest and didn't feel I could count it if I hadn't seen the uncut film from start to finish.
I forever stand vigilant to protect this planet from the myriad of forces that are always against us. Be it the octopus, zombies, aliens or the robots my team of human agents, and our feline allies, circle the globe in a never ending struggle for human freedom.
I learn all I can on every subject that interests me. I especially enjoy ancient history because in the past there are valuable lessons to be found. Also, if I ever get my time machine to work properly, it would be good to know a bit about possible destinations and what to expect when I get there.
I greatly appreciate beautiful design. Be it manufactured or found naturally I am fascinated by the process of invention. I am attracted to the unique, the strange, the haunted. I like to share what I find on this blog.
And not let us forget the 'Cephalopod Menace' who, if allowed to, would wrap their tentacles around all that is good and pure in this life and crush it until it remained no more. They are creatures of pure spite. Hate is all they know. Death is all they do. They are our most ruthless and determined enemy.
So we fight. Selena has the celebrity contacts, the cat is ruthless and without pity, Roosevelt's ghost has the experience and I do the wetwork.
Fighting for the future of the planet doesn't have to be a chore, however. We can take the time to appreciate all that is cool in this world even as we cut the octopus into bite sized chunks.
This is the reason there has always been and must forever be, a Cave of Cool. Be sure to wipe your feet before you enter.

23/100 yes indeedy.
I only scored a 41.
But these ARE only action movies from my lifetime. I just missed a few of the Japanese ones which I should see anyways.
79. Way better than I thought. I missed most of the Japanese and the James Bond.
I got a 94 also. Most of those I missed are the Japanese ones. I had the Hong Kong stuff like The Killer and Hard boiled.

77, but I differ slightly from the criteria used to select the list.
