Zero Dark Thirty was simply too long.
Didn't like Rango at all.
I love/hate The Social Network. I love how it really does encapsulate the generation. I hate that it does not accurately portray the actual events.

KP, do you rewatch most movies? I watch a lot of movies but generally only see them once.

17/30. Zero Dark Thirty would be much higher for me, possibly at #1.

KP, I was curious how many of the top 50 you saw in the theater vs home. I also wanted to know how many of the 50 you watched more then once.

I saw Room this afternoon. I loved it. It was a very powerful movie with amazing performances, that kid deserves an Oscar. I'm surprised you are lukewarm on it.

I rewatch a lot of stuff that I didn't just downright hate. Sometimes right away, sometimes years later. I have seen certain movies in the 100s of times, and have watched a new movie 3x in one weekend. Even stuff that I was lukewarm on I will try again years later. I figure that I am VERY different than I was 10 years ago, so I love to rewatch stuff to see how I react to it now. My ordering of stuff is in constant fluctuation - my top favorite 10 movies when I was in college would look completely different than it does now.

Interesting question. I don't see movies in the theater much anymore. Since 2003, 9 years of that was spent either owning my own video store or managing chain store, so I would just take all the rentals home for free. Even now I just tap into the library system to watch stuff for free. At the most I will see about 5 movies in the theater a year. Now it is usually a few family movies that I take my 9 year old son to plus one or two movies I want to see on the big screen. Scanning my list of 50, I think I only saw 4 in the theater. 1 was Inside Out, and 3 are in the top 20. I honestly can't think of any on this list that I haven't seen at least twice.
Movies are my outlet and escape, and have been for quite awhile. Unfortunately I don't read a ton anymore, and there aren't a lot of shows I am addicted to right now. It is not unheard of for me to rip off 8-10 movies a week. Sometimes it's only a few in a week, but there was a time I was a stay at home dad and would watch 12+ in a week.

I guess it's on to the top 20. It was good timing that a couple people asked me about rewatching movies. As I was looking through I realized that there was group of movie that stood out to me this way: they were movies that I loved enough that I ended up watching again (sometimes more that 2x) within a week after seeing them. Sadly, there are a couple that I just hit the play button again, and watched back to back. 
In the case of the couple I saw in the theater, I ended up going again.
20. The Fighter
A couple of my favorite actors in Christian Bale and Amy Adams. Adams is great in damn near anything, and outside of DDL, I can't think of another actor who throws himself into roles quite like Bale does. In between big budget movies he morphs himself for "smaller" roles like this one.
19. Inception
If not for Krista, this one would probably rank higher. I would still call myself a Nolan fanboy despite not loving his last couple movies. He tops Abrams is his dedication to using as many practical effects as he can, and damn do his movies look great. What he is able to do is create that "how the #### did they do that" feeling that I got when I was a kid. This is what I would like all summer blockbusters to look like if I had my way. That said, it is not great on quick repeats, because as Krista made me realize, 1/2 the movie feels like Juno explaining #### to us. Works the first time, not so much as you know what is going on. Still a damn fun ride to take.
18. How to Train Your Dragon
Who doesn't love this movie and love Toothless? Looks fantastic, and was out around the time it felt like Pixar was spinning it's wheels. IMO no longer are they the must see, go to movies for kids, and other studios really have caught up.
17. Edge of Tomorrow
Sooooo much damn fun. Again, has that time travel element that always pulls me in, plus had some great action and humor. Not sure why this didn't do even better in theaters - maybe it's the Tom Cruise factor? If that's the case, at least you get to see him die over and over (no spoiler - the movie is called Live.Die.Repeat). Also, any movie that Bill Paxton is in automatically gets a few cool points.
16. Blue Ruin
If you are tired of the revenge movies featuring guys like Liam Neeson kicking ### and taking names, this movie is for you. This movie is about what could happen if an everyday Joe tried to do the same. This movie hooked me right away and if I remember right is a popular movie to recommend in the few other movie threads floating around here.

This next tier was the hardest for me I think. One in particular I thought would be higher, maybe in the top 3, but for this list I think the rewatchable factor held it back. I think that is a theme for 3 of the movies, maybe technically better than others in the top 10 but harder watches and the other 2 I think are where they would be either way.
15. The Raid: Redemption
I said there would be a cheat and there would be a foreign movie on my list. Here is the deal - there is really not much of a plot, so you are not missing a ton if you don't want to bother with the subtitles. What you get is some of the best action I can remember seeing for a long time. Just amazing.
14. The Master
There are going to be a handful in the top 15 that aren't for everybody, and this is definitely one of them. I think that PTA is probably the best director working today - IMO he made the best movie of the 90s and a top 3 movie of the 00s, This one didn't quite rise up to that level, but I was still glued to the screen by the performances. Again with the Amy Adams love, but also has Philip Seymour Hoffman (RIP) and Joaquin Phoenix. Loosely resembling the early stages of Scientology but also has that odd pseudo father/son dynamic that is present in just about anything PTA does. Love it.
13. The Way Way Back
Probably way to high for some people, but just a damn good, put a smile on your face movie. Probably the movie I have seen 2nd most in the top 15, as its one of those safe movies that I think a lot of people will also enjoy. My man crush on Sam Rockwell knows no bounds, and Steve Carrell plays a good doosh as well. Maybe people don't love it as much as I do, but I can't think of anybody that at least didn't like this one on some level.
12. Black Swan
Before Noah, if there was a director I loved as much as PTA, it was Aronofsky. Now I am not so sure, but I know that Black Swan was one of those movies I talked about earlier that I ended up watching a few times the first weekend that I saw it. I know it is hard to believe if you have seen the Star Wars prequel, but Portman can act her ### off.
11. The Tree of Life
I think a lot of the top 15 here will be love/hate movies and this is probably the most polarizing of the bunch. This is the movie that I talked about that if I was just doing this by ratings or what I think a great/important movie is, this would be in the top 3. Even I can step away from Malick's junk long enough to admit that the dinosaur stuff is a bit much and it is bloated. However, this is the movie that he was designed to make with the voice-overs (don't know why I can forgive him and not Scorsese) and bouncing back and forth in time to follow a character remembering his life and childhood.

Love and love. Agree on somewhat forgiving the Tree of Life voiceovers, even though I'm usually the worst of the voice-over critics. Somehow it just worked. I loved Black Swan but don't wish to watch it again. Tree of Life is something I need to watch again; thanks for the reminder on that. (Oh, and the dinosaur stuff is soooo bloated.)

It just works with Malick's meandering, look at the flowers way of directing. Supposedly there is a 4-5 hour cut of the movie, and I would totally watch that. To the Wonder was not great, and I still haven't gotten around to Knight of Cups from this year.
If I like something, I will watch it at least one more time (with one exception), not matter how bleak. I have seen Requiem for a Dream several times, and that movie can suck the life from you (top 5 movie of the 00s). The exception is Dear Zachary. It's a documentary, and I don't think I have sobbed as much watching anything in my life. Not sure if I am going to ever watch that again.

Bale was amazing in The Fighter. I could live without the rest of it though.
Very much agree that Inception falls apart the more times you see it/
I might even put Edge of Tomorrow higher. Its just such a fun movie. Plus, much like you and Amy Adams, I'll take a similar stance on Emily Blunt.
I get what he was doing with Black Swan, I just thought it was mostly boring.
I recorded both The Master and Tree of Life. More than once. Just couldn't get myself to watch them. Felt like I had homework to do.

I saw this over the break - there was a very well dubbed version on Kodi somewhere.

Good call. I think I'm in the minority in that I thought The Town was the best of the three, but Argo has to be on anyone's top 50 decade-so-far list, surely.

Loved The Fighter. Could rewatch the bar scene on infinite loop. Everything about that scene, especially the background music, is perfect.
Predictions for top ten
Silver Linings Playbook (my number one)
Wolf of Wall Street
Argo (may have been listed, I know it has been mentioned itt)
American Hustle
Dark Knight Rises
Django
Chronicle
TS 3
Nightcrawler
Super 8

OMG, forgot that one. Easily a top 20 movie of all time for me. Loved everything about that movie. So many good characters. I really enjoyed Nightcrawler. A lot of good movies still left. There's going to be some disappointment.
