James Gunn challenges fans to come up with six perfect movies and shares his own list

Get the Full StoryJames Gunn has set fans a tough challenge on social media to name six movies they consider absolutely perfect. Obviously, perfection is something that s very subjective when it comes to cinema, as one viewer may find a film to be flawless while someone else thinks it s a waste of time. The movies that people are choosing for Gunn s challenge, then, say a lot about their personal tastes.

Gunn s own choices are especially intriguing, as they display his wide-ranging interest in classic cinema and yet are worlds away from the kind of films he s known to make himself. Off the top of your head, 6 movies you can watch anytime & consider as close to perfect as a film can be, Gunn wrote before naming his six. They are 2004 s Kung Fu Hustle, 1973 s The Long Goodbye, 2004 s Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, 2009 s Mother, 1974 s The Godfather Part II, and 1969 s Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice.
