The nikka forgot Axel Foley was from Detroit..

False.

 

[Antwon Mitchell]

False.

Those regions are trash when it comes to movies...I've watched half of that list and nothing really memorable which is why many were left off.

I disagree...and a film being "noteworthy" is not based on what you've seen or liked.

 

[KodeBlue]

Bad Boys was left out for the South.

 

[Antwon Mitchell]

South and Midwest cant compete against east and west in terms of movies...maybe against each other, it would be interesting but they don't stand a chance.

I cares not about that - you said the South and Midwest didn't have enough "noteworthy" movies.
That's the part I disagree with. So I added ones I think are "noteworthy" in case anyone else was curious, and I'm done with it.

 

[NoMoreWhiteWoman2020]

nikka said east coast but only included New York movies

The South: Gone With The Wind, Porgy And Bess, Old Yeller, Roots, To Kill A Mockingbird, Black Like Me, Goldfinger, Cool Hand Luke, Easy Rider, In The Heat Of The Night, Sounder, Where The Red Fern Grows, The Outsiders, Scarface, Places In The Heart, A Soldiers' Story, The Color Purple, Mississippi Burning, Bull Durham, School Daze, Steel Magnolias, Cape Fear, Fried Green Tomatoes, JFK, The Firm, Forest Gump, A Time To Kill, Rosewood, Life, The Notebook, Ray, Hustle & Flow, ATL, Glory Road, No Country For Old Men

Southern as well
bad boys 1-3, eves bayou, Jason’s lyric, o brother where art thou, idlewild, any given Sunday, players club, uptown saturday night, Friday night lights, hustle n flow

I would argue that movies about philly/Boston are just as good as movies about New York


since when is the matrix an east coast movie? shyt looked more Cali than NY
