Inspired by Zink's recent top 10 games thread, I thought we'd do exactly the same for films.
Same scoring system, no. 10 = 1 point, no.1 = 10 points. Here's my list:

1. The Shawshank Redemption
2. One flew over the Cukoo's nest
3. The Magnificent Seven
4. Life is beautiful (Vita e bella, La)
5. Pulp Fiction
6. Star Wars : the empire strikes back
7. Total Recall
8. Monty Python's Holy Grail
9. For a few Dollars more
10. Blade Runner

So the current standings:

1. LotR trilogy (107)
2. Star Wars IV-VI (103)
3. Aliens (50)
4. Pulp Fiction (41)
5. Matrix (trilogy) (34)
6. The Shawshank Redemption (33)
7. The Usual Suspects (31)
8.Clerks (30)
9. Fight Club (29)
10. The Crow (26)

Some tough choices for me as I made the list I started to think about more movies. Then I had to make cuts. [img]smile.gif[/img] Not many classics in there for me. Apocalypse Now, should be on that list. Also I could add half of Stanley Kubrick's films in there.

Nice to see other peoples choices out there.

2) Lock Stock & 2 Smoking Barrels
3) Clerks
4) Fight Club
5) The Crow
6) Chasing Amy
7) Boondock Saints

9) Matrix (original)
10) Resivour Dogs

I don't feel like putting these in order, but Oldschool, Scarface, Lord of the Rings, Eurotrip, Officespace, and Fight Club belong on that list ;) [img]tongue.gif[/img] .

It's difficult. Picking out 10 movies from the mass of excellent pictures. And pictures that prooved to be fluff on second viewing (new Star Wars and LotR - yuck). I came up with something like this

Festen
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0154420/
Flåklypa Gran Prix
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0073000/
Stalingrad
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0108211/
Lion King
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0110357/
Star Wars IV "A new hope"
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0076759/
North by Northwest
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0053125/
L.A. Confidential
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0119488/
Reservoir Dogs
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0105236/
Blade Runner
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0083658/

How can it be possible that you select a movie that hasn't even been released? :rolleyes:

I myself won't make a list, because I know there'll be movies that I forgot to mention. I haven't seen Rain Man in the above lists, for instance, a darn good movie at that!

One of my top 10. Really liked that movie. Not bad flick for Zach. Writing and directing. Hope to see more movies from him. ;)

LOTR Trilogy
Star Wars 4-6
Alien Trilogy
Blade Trilogy
Spiderman 1 (Still haven't managed to get my hands on two...)
Matrix Trilogy
Tomb Raider 1
Armageddon
Deep Rising
Dawn of the Dead-New version, really creepy situation when I saw that one at the theater. We came out of the theater, and there was no one in Old Town, on a Friday night, which is really unusual...Creepy.
