[BioHunter1990]

These are certainly the best examples of film. Film is an art, and these are the works of the masters. Film is everlasting...I have always loved it, and I always will.

@bellotti8101 I no right? Like why doesn't they just have movies made in the last week? Who wants to watch all those boring old people movies?

@erikbateson Eh, I would move Raging Bull down

[bellotti8101]

I'm disappointed that neither Fight Club, Requiem For a Dream, City of God, or Good Will Hunting made the cut. I think those should be at the top of the list. it's kind of gay that like over half the movies they put on here are gay 1950's movies that I've never scene. They should make a '1960 - Present Time' one next.

Because everyone was riding the Titanic-hate bandwagon for 10 years. Now, Titanic is making a comeback, I think.

Personally, I think #83 is outrageously low for Titanic.
