The DNForum Top 20 Films

[dodo1]

This is obviously not domain-related, but since this is the forum to discuss "anything you wish" I thought "Why not compile a DNF top 20 movie list?"

I will be accepting the input of DNF members through August 31, at which point I will compile the data and list the top 20 movies.

List up to 10 movies, please. The movies can be of any genre. This should give me enough data to come up with a top 20 list. Accepting more than 10 movies per member would just result in more work for me.

You can change your list any time and as often as you want through August 31.

I make the first move, here we go, my top 10:

Apocalypse Now Redux
Being John Malkovich
Clockwork Orange
Fight Club
Jurassic Park
LA Confidential
Lord Of The Rings
Once Upon A Time In The West
The Godfather
The Graduate

 

[Ian]

Here is my list;
Elizabethtown
Lord of the Rings
The constant Gardener
7 seconds
I-Robot
Bourne Identity
Garden State
Almost Famous
The Usual Suspects
A walk to remember
