    difficult..

    In no order..

    Apocalypse Now
    Citizen Kane
    Dr Strangelove
    The Godfather & ii
    Goodfellas
    Metropolis
    Pulp Fiction
    The Shawshank Redemption
    Taxi Driver
    The Usual Suspects

    Film not on list that would have been in my top 10 (it would have been number 1 TBH): Good Will Hunting

    Someone was talking about the aliens movies - the only one of them worth talking about is the second one - IMHO the rest are utter trash, up there with Police Academy smile.gif

    NO return of the jedi!!! they should be shot and thir bodies should be dragged through the streets by a cars with a bumper sticker that sez "My other car is a millenium falcon"!

    The Millenium Bug, You mean Han Solo's ship is coming here in the year 2000?

    ROTJ would be left out by many die-hard Star Wars fans including me, simply because of what we would describe as the "Ewok Menace".
    <font face="Verdana, Arial" size="2">An entire LEGION of my BEST troops awaits them...</font>


    were Palpatine's words...right before said legion gets its collective ass whooped by a bunch of rotund Care-Bears carrying blunt spears. Having said that- I'm very suprised indeed that The Big Sleep isn't on the list.

    Anyone else notice how TOP 100 of ALL TIME lists tend to focus on the last 10-20 years of film-making? It might be natural, but they've overlooked some fantastic films.
