      Racist? Lol. Who cares. That's history for ya. You wanna talk bout authenticity, then make a list coz there are plenty with lack of authenticity. Braveheart should've made the list but maybe it wasn't his type of movies.

    • @cooperarthur3
      @cooperarthur3 10 років тому +3

      ***** History isn't racist, Brave hearts racist, just English stereotypes fighting Scottish stereotypes. Also (apart form 300) all of the films on the list were historically accurate. Braveheart is just overated ( and the acting by whoever plays the English king is awful)

    Braveheart is the EPIC Movie that inspired the modern gererations EPIC MOVIES,
    300, Gladiator, Troy, the Last Samarai All are simply stealing off of Bravehearts playbook.
    I hope it is possible to add a 1 and 1A revision to your videos????????

  • @mikebaks6960
    @mikebaks6960 10 років тому +2

    You should have replaced Troy 4:55 with Braveheart, seriously, Braveheart is not only a fantastic movie, it has some of the most amazing battles ever filmed, no cheesy slow motions shots like in every frikkin' battle scene of Troy...
    As the matter of fact, Braveheart is a movie where slow motion is used the right way, only when it's absolutely necessary and not to cover up weak battle scenes like most movies do.

    1. Star Wars A New Hope (shits all over Gladiator and 9 films in your top 10)
    2. Infinity War
    3. The Ten Commandments
    4. Jaws
    5. Transformers
    6. Close Encounters Of The Third Kind

    No The Dark Knight Rises? That's interesting... It fits your definition of epic more than The Dark Knight does. And didn't FlickPick say The Dark Knight Rises was his favorite in the trilogy. That makes the results of this list even more surprising...

      Star wars isn't really an epic movie, It's an great film sure maybe one of the best but it's not really that epic aside from some battles.

      I mean, also, besides the fact that they are ALL of extremely high quality... if you really think about it, Lord of the Rings is one entire story. It's not really three movies. No on every puts on "The Two Towers" without having seen "The Fellowship of the Ring" first. That's the way it works. To me and many others they are one whole unit. (In fact, Tolkien originally wanted to release the lord of the rings as one entire book/story but the publishers fought against that).

      "flawless" No. No movie is flawless, not even the beloved LOTR.

    [Epic!: Usually centered upon a hero, in which a series of great achievements or events is narrated in elevated style.]
    Some of Epic! movies in my collection that may deserve runner up status.
    Blade Runner, Terminatot II, Die Hard, Serenity, Hellboy, Ben Hur...just a few.

  • @ericabbott9382
    @ericabbott9382 10 років тому

    Would any of these make it in your top 20? The last Samurai, Braveheart, The Patriot (Too much Mel?) Road Warrior, The Postman, Dances with Wolves, Waterworld (Too much Kevin?) Windtalkers, Pearl Harbor (Too much love story?) These seem like some Epic Films.

  • @chrisk6887
    @chrisk6887 10 років тому

    Starship troopers for sure (never speak of the sequels), Kingdom of heaven, toy soldiers (not small soldiers), willow. There ya go, one from each field of Sci Fi, historical, action/war and fantasy.
    Gonna have to throw in the raid 2, just epic fighting!
    AAAANND 1986 crossroads.... as if having a guitar battle with the devil for your soul isn't epic.

  • @connorpusey5912

    I don’t think some of these can really be classified as epics. Just because a movie has a lot of action and special effects doesn’t make it an epic. Epic doesn’t mean what a lot of people think it does, in terms of movies; a film could have minimal action and still be classified as an epic.
    But anyway, these are my favorites in no particular order:
    . Ben-Hur
    . Titanic
    . Barry Lyndon
    . Amadeus
    . Gone with the Wind
    . The Birth of a Nation (1915) (for its historical value and story-telling)
    . The Good, The Bad and the Ugly
    . Dances with Wolves

    I'd have to agree with you on Gladiator, that movie defines bad-ass. Some of the most classic movies are the most epic like The Good, Bad, and the Ugly, Lawrence of Arabia, and Jurassic Park. But, for new movies, Pacific Rim is one of the most epic movies I've seen in a while.

    I think you missed Braveheart. Also, 2001: A Space Odyssey is a horrible movie. Beside HAL 9000 and the effects (which I think are amazing) I think the movie's a boring piece of garbage.

  • @robertzerep91
    @robertzerep91 10 років тому

    The thing about Troy and 300 that pissed me off is the fact it actually happened in history and failed to teach anything. The only history these films portray are the basics. In troy they portray the horse which everyone knew about already. In 300 they portray the 300 soldiers and the hot gates which everyone knew about already. I respect your opinion.

    People, he´s talking about epic movies (what epic means to him at least) not about the best film ever. Don´t understand how you can say his list is wrong because a movie at #5 is worse than the movie at #7 or whatever. It´s about the epic ingredients, not best film.
