5-star Movies (Abridged/PART 1)

This is a list of all the perfect 5-star movies I found in my rateyourmusic account.

I'm almost certain there's a few dozen if not more that I am missing per I never found myself going to those movie's pages and rating them.

But just for the Sake-of and the minimal work I did copying these onto this entry, I'll throw this up for now.

But I mean to in the near future include an updated/more accurate/more than 24 5-star movies.

Also for the record, these are what I consider my 2 favorite movies of all-time:

story

UPDATE: Let me confirm that Sam Raimi is set to direct Disney's extravagant 'Wizard of Oz' 3D prequel. I understand that talks to hire Raimi for Oz: The Great And Powerful turned into a deal last night finalized by CAA. It's a coup for new studio bosses Rich Ross and Sean Bailey, who are rolling the dice big-time by hoping that this pic will be a global hit like the billion-dollar-grossing Alice In Wonderland. "Robert Downey Jr. isn't set yet. They are going to develop for him, if things go right. The script will be rewritten," one of my sources says. "The movie will happen, though." Downey would play the Wizard Of Oz before he became the Wizard Of Oz circa the 1939 iconic film: he's in fact a circus wrangler transported by tornado to the mysterious world of Oz where he gets mistaken for a know-it-all. This will be Raimi's first firm project since he exited Spider-Man 4, which prompted Sony Pictures to reboot the entire franchise earlier this year. Now the only question is whether Sam Raimi can do what Tim Burton just did.

I kind of have mixed feelings about this as I like Raimi and Downey Jr, and am a big fan of The Wizard of Oz. But how many franchises/classic stories has Hollywood ruined in the last decade alone? My favorite story? at least it's a new/original story apparently and not actually a remake, but instead a prequel.

Also it appears there are to be a couple of other The Wizard of Oz related pictures to be made in the next few years. Although animated, they do include some good people including Patrick Stewart (yes, of course!)
