    Wait, Britain is to blame for Borat? I totally thought it was an American film. For shame...

    All Bond movies with Sean Connery.

    that list loses all credibility by placing a parody movie on 6th place.

    Though not probably one of the 100 best I recently saw The Dead, and thought it was a very good zombie movie.

    Interested in a Vicky 2 or HOI 3 multiplayer game?
