Family Guy: It's a Trap! - 7/10
The Maltese Falcon - 1941 (6.5/10)
A hard one to rate due to it being a milestone film that gave birth to the film noir genre but at the end of the day I just didn't particularly enjoy it. Almost the entire first hour is people sitting in rooms smoking and talking about a bird. Its influences on films even decades later is obvious but it has been far surpassed many times over.
It's Better than all 7 Star Wars films combined.

All seven combined? Well the PT really brings that average down doesn't it?The Maltese Falcon was okay but unless you're a die hard Bogart or private eye fan I wouldn't rank it above other milestone films from that era. Casablanca was far superior and stands the test of time much better IMO. With regard to Maltese vs Star Wars well let's just say that in this case I do agree with the American Film Institute that SW is far superior.
Well it's an honor to finally meet the man who speaks for the majority of film buffs.

ORCA - 7 out of 10.... Guilty pleasure at it's finest.
I always found the tone of Orca to be quite unsettling (in a good way.) SO much better than the idiotic JAWS The Revenge (since they both share the "it's personal" theme.
Battle Royale - I love it when Netflix puts foreign films on streaming with no dubs or subtitles...not
A watched it earlier this year and the subtitles were there. Check your settings. It might also be a glitch.
