Earlier this year I did a 100 Favorite Films countdown over on Twitter. And being completely swamped with no time to write this holiday season, I figured I'd close out the year by re-posting it here in a lead up to my Best Films of 2016 post. Please note this is a list of favorite films, not best films. (That would be an entirely different list.) And so, here are the films I love and can watch again and again and again with nary a guilty pleasure in the whole bunch. Again, there's no real order to it but I might sandbag a few for a Top 10 to polish this off. So please, enjoy these revelations or revel in how big a cine-idiot you think I am.

Adventures in Babysitting is a lot of fun, but it loses out to 'The Citizen Kane' of Babysitter movies; Don't Tell Mom The Babysitter's Dead. Also, it's hard to believe Elizabeth Shue just six years later would be in Leaving Las Vegas-----I wonder how many fans of hers went to see her expecting a far different movie?
God, it's so weird how you're picking some of my faves that I thought no one in this entire dimension would ever select. Despite its completely asinine tacked-on "paperboys save the day" subplot, The Monolith Monsters outshines many of the 'classics' of its time. And fuck yeah, The Giant Claw and The Blues Brothers are immortal.
