Filmsite has compiled many extensive collections of material on a variety of topics, including: Sexy Hollywood Bombshells, The Most Controversial Films of All-Time, Greatest Plot Twists, Spoilers, and Surprise Endings,, Greatest James Bond Girls, Best Film Speeches and Monologues, Movie Title Screens, Greatest Movie Props in Film History, and so much more.

Some of the Bond franchise films have done better than others in terms of appeal and quality. In particular, the Roger Moore Bond films have not stood the test of time as well as many of the other Bonds and their films. The rankings are obviously subjective, although based on numerous reviews and Filmsite's own evaluation. There are three levels for the 24 rated films: the top 10 Bond films, the middle films, and the bottom 10 Bond films.

This multi-part list of gal films or 'chick flicks' (a demeaning and damning term, however, since this sub-genre of film was traditionally known as the "woman's films - melodramas " in the 30s and 40s) was put together to provide a counter-balance to the 'guy films' category. 'Chick flicks' have often been put down as trite, sappy, emotional, soap-opera-ish, cliched, melodramatic, weepy, and trivial.

This multi-part section provides a great overview of the sub-category, and main objective of the greatest guy movies of all time. Film genres (or sub-genres) most associated with 'guy' movies include action films, crime/gangster films, sports films, war films, and westerns plus an occasional comedy or raunchy teen film. They usually include lavish doses of brutality, ultra- or cartoonish violence, various vulgarities, competitiveness, races, blunt humor, trite dialogue, and scenes with naked males and females. They are the reverse of "chick flicks."

These are among the most successful horror films: Halloween (1978), Friday the 13th (1980), and A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984). Each of them spawned inferior, low-budget, sickening slasher, 'schlock' or 'splatter' films in the 80s (and 90s and beyond). Most of the sequels or imitators were exploitative and featured shock, gory violence, graphic horror, 'teens in peril,' computer-generated special effects and makeup, and usually a homicidal male psycho who committed a progressive string of gruesome murders on female victims (where brutal killing/slashing/hacking metaphorically substituted for a rape).

This 3-part compilation provides brief descriptions of the sexiest films in the display of sex and eroticism on the screen throughout cinematic history.

In four parts, this ranking provides a quick overview of the rankings of the greatest film franchises (or series) in box-office history. The rankings are presented in descending order based on total film franchise revenue. Each franchise lists each of the films in the series, the entire film franchises' total revenue (domestic) (approx.), the number of films in the franchise, the # 1 film (with its title screen) in the franchise and its total revenue (domestic).

Title screens are the initial titles, usually projected at the beginning of a film, and following the logos of the film studio. They are often an ignored aspect of films, although they reflect the time period or era of the film, the mood or design of the film, and much more.

This extensive listing includes almost 700 Best Film Speeches and Monologues, in multiple parts (organized chronologically), of deserving best film monologues and speeches. Film speeches are normally delivered orally and directed at an audience of three or more people, although there can be exceptions, such as voice-over narrations.

Each one is quoted as accurately as possible (and in its entirety), with accompanying screenshots from the scene, and some audio files (for playback).

All of the James Bond films have at least one or more Bond girls, serving as sex objects and often as major characters opposite agent 007. This section of Filmsite provides access to specific information about each Bond film (and its Bond girls). The introductory page also highlights the contributions of Miss Moneypenny to the popular series - not technically a 'Bond Girl' but a fixture of the franchise.

The character type of femme fatale was derived from the anti-heroine vamps of early cinema, and later evolved into the main female character in film noirs that first evolved in the 1940s. The dark style of film became prominent in the post-war era and lasted in a classic "Golden Age" period until about 1960. A film noir story was often developed around a cynical, hard-hearted, disillusioned male character [e.g., Robert Mitchum, Fred MacMurray, Glenn Ford or Humphrey Bogart] who encountered a beautiful but promiscuous, amoral, double-dealing and seductive femme fatale that was often surrounded by deadly circumstances. A Picture Guide to the 50+ Femmes Fatales and film write-ups is also provided.
