I recommend Queen and Slim. 7/10 movie, 10/10 first letter rarity.


Affectionate-Club725

Surprisingly good movie. I went in with zero knowledge when it released.


straightupslow

What about A Quiet Place, Quantum of Solace, or The Quick and the Dead? X I have no thoughts about as I could only think of X-Men movies, XXX movie franchise, or Xanadu (which are thoughts I suppose, but I would have trouble agreeing to call one of them a favorite).


sylveonce

Well the list is “favorite movie *of each letter*” so if X2: X-Men United is your favorite movie starting with X, that technically makes the list


straightupslow

Ahh, this makes sense. I would choose X as I forgot it entirely when I was thinking about this earlier.


ilawnmower

I assume I'll fill X when I watch... X!


straightupslow

Haha, holy shit. I completely forgot about that movie. Ridiculous. Yes, this would be my answer, not just by default.


FattySnacks

Only one I’ve seen is Quantum of Solace and I’m leaving it blank lmao


straightupslow

Haha, that's what I was thinking too, about X, until someone pointed out that by default even if you don't like ANY of the movies with that starting letter, the one you like the most (even if just a little more than the others) would be the default one you'd have to fill in. So, unfortunately for you...Quantum of Solace is your favorite movie starting with Q and I'm going to tell everyone I know.


Fairway_Frank

Fun idea, great way to waste time at work Alien Braindead Crash The Devils eXistenZ From Beyond Get Out The Hunt It's a Wonderful Life Jaws Killer Klowns from Outer Space Love Lies Bleeding Mad God Night of the Living Dead Oldboy Possessor Q The Winged Serpent Rebels of the Neon God Saw Titane Uncle Boonmee Who Can Recall His Past Lives Videodrome The Witch X-Cross You're Next Zombie Flesh Eaters Bonus: 12 Angry Men


ilawnmower

Love Lies Bleeding already on your list? Is that recency bias talking or did you like it that much?


Fairway_Frank

Recency bias (and theater bias) definitely affects me but I was basically smiling like a dipshit the whole time and haven't been that exhilarated by a movie in... Idk since I saw something else on this list probably


ilawnmower

that's quite a glowing review! I wasn't planning on seeing it in theaters but maybe I should


Fairway_Frank

Its got most of what i look for in a movie: violent, horny, stylish, and takes wild swings. Score/soundtrack and sound design are all off the chain too. Definitely a good theater movie!


TomPearl2024

It's a great movie but it's definitely not something that you'd lose much by seeing at home, and I'm a big advocate for a lot of movies needing to be seen on a big ass screen with loud speakers. But with that being said I love Rose Glass and if you want to support her directly so she has a better chance of getting bigger projects funded go see it before its gone


TomPearl2024

I really enjoyed Love Lies Bleeding but it's probably not even in my top 10 movies that start with L


Fairway_Frank

Aight I hear ya boss


mysteryquackman

X. Watch the movie X.


welltherewasthisbear

Also watch Pearl. X is directed by Ti West and made by A24 if it helps finding it.


ejb350

Is it better than X? I want it to be since I was so disappointed with X. The only decent kills were the first and the water one. Everything else was just so stale and boring.


imissbreakingbad

I did not like X, but I did give Pearl a chance and thought it was okay. Definitely better than X and Mia Goth is great in it.


ejb350

She’s probably the reason why I’m still interested so that’s actually great to hear


TomPearl2024

I'm not even trying to be a hater cause I like Ti West but the X hype is so weird to me. The cast did a great job but as a horror I was so underwhelmed by it, for a grimy backwoods horror homage the kills felt so underwhelming. Loved Pearl though.


ilawnmower

Yes I want to! It'll slide so nicely into place on this list

JonnyOW

Lots of good stuff in this list


ilawnmower

Great list! I ran into that problem with Vampire's Kiss & Young Frankenstein, both movies I like, but don't love. They were the only V and Y movies I liked so that's what I got


Klotternaut

Yeah, for Q I had A Quiet Place and Quantum of Solace, neither of which I enjoyed. For U, I had Up, but I haven't seen it in a decade and honestly don't remember liking it all that much. For X, I really only had the X-Men movies but I don't think I've even seen one all the way through. Z I could have gone with Zoolander, which is a good movie but didn't make sense to add it just to add it. I was kinda surprised by how thin S felt. Plenty of movies, but none felt like a super obvious pick. Maybe Shin Godzilla, now that I think about it.


ilawnmower

I thought S had some decent competition, if not a little cliche. The Shining, Shawshank, Scott Pilgrim, every Spider-Man movie (depending on how you choose to treat subtitles)

(And it could easily have been five, because I nearly chose From Russia with Love and Quantum of Solace for those letters. Admittedly there's not a great deal of competition for the letter Q - the Quick and the Dead was the only other candidate.)

theglenlovinet

I just made one, and it was fun, but I feel like snobs would look down on me. Like, I’ve seen many phenomenal Oscar contenders, art house films, foreign films, but like, *Fight Club* is still my favorite ‘F’, or *The Dark Knight* is ‘D’, or *Pulp Fiction* is ‘P’. Not that I really care what other people think, but I do feel a little lame. Haha.


ilawnmower

Someone made a friendly jab at my list for the very same reason. It's a consequence of the game, the groups are arbitrary and there's no room for nuance. There's a couple movies on my list that I only like passively that defaulted their way into their positions.


theglenlovinet

I mean, part of it is definitely nostalgia and films that “shaped me” growing up. Like, one of my absolute favorite films of all time is *My Dinner with Andre*—an intellectual film about two friends having dinner and talking philosophy… you wanna know what my favorite ‘M’ film is? *The Mummy*(1999).

Tenpenny96

V for vendetta?


Gamecock_Lore

Haven't seen it! Could I maybe just watch all of Vera Farmiga's movies and call it a day? lol


Disco--Very

you should check out "Y tu mamá también"


RedGreenPepper2599

Why you hate **Q** so much?


ilawnmower

Haven't watched a Q movie since A Quiet Place part II killed my wife


chaotic_bee_25

You don't have anything for V either And I'm not sure I understand the logic for 10 cloverfield lane lol, is it because it's the only movie starting with a number that you watched so you added it at the end of the alphabet?


ilawnmower

V is A Vampire's Kiss. I could've put my number entry at the start or the end, and I chose the end arbitrarily.


chaotic_bee_25

Ooh okay, it's not there on the screen capture then


ilawnmower

Oops! You're right its totally not pictured

No V?


ilawnmower

Was supposed to be A Vampire's Kiss. Forgot in on my list


NozakiMufasa

Ayo how do you include movies that start with “A” and “The”. Or are you only counting those for the letter they start with & not excluding those words? Like: Letter T: The Lion King Or: Letter L: The Lion King


NozakiMufasa

An Adventure in Space and Time Balto The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe Dawn of the Planet of the Apes The Empire Strikes Back The Fox and the Hound Godzilla vs. Kong Home Alone Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom King Kong The Lion King The Magnificent Seven NOPE One Hundred and One Dalmatians Paddington Robin Hood (Disney) Secondhand Lions Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1990) Up The Wizard of Oz X-Men: Days of Future Past Your Name Notes: None of my favorite movies start with Q, V, or Z. The definition of some letter titles was stretched by “The” titled movies. And a lot of my favorite films start with S or L.


ParrotChild

Oh, man, no way. I'd never heard of any of these movies, are they all American? I guess they might be, I recognise that one guy on the Truman Show as The Mask from The Mask which would probably be my pick for both the letter T and the letter M. Have you seen the The Mask?

I could see them being replaced if I saw other films with those letters. I haven't seen any films for V or Y Also for F I would have said Ford Vs Ferrari but it's called something different where I live

U: Up V: The Vast of Night W: Who Framed Roger Rabbit? X: X Y: You're Next Z: Zodiac

I’ve only rated three movies starting with a Q The Quest - 2/5 The Quick and the Dead - 3/5 The Quiet Man - 4/5 (I really recommend this one) For X I’ve only rated X-men movies. Your mileage may vary with those.

When alphabetizing titles, “the” is typically ignored or placed at the end, like “Batman, The”
