Part of me wants to vote for myself because I am highly conceited, but both Sam and John Marston gave some great responses, so I guess I will abstain from voting.
You know, after having to debate (about 3) hicks today about the confederate flag over the course of an hour, 12 Years a Slave might be an important film that all Americans should see after all.
I used to think no person in their right mind wouldn't know that chattel slavery was one of the greatest crimes committed by humanity, but those people sure didn't know.
I'm sorry for the wait, I got into a debate with an ignorant hick on twitter who wouldn't stop trying to convince me that the Confederate Flag represented Southern Heritage and Patriotic pride in America (he tried telling me the confederates didn't commit treason, and that secession is Constitutional....). Sometimes, I am really disgusted about the area that I live in but then I realize not all Texans (especially the city dwellers like me) are ignorant hicks so all is well.

I just got into a debate with a southern hick on twitter about the confederate flag. I don't even know why I am even trying when all he says is that it represents Southern Heritage, and that the confederates fought for southern heritage. Sometimes it sucks knowing history because it's so disgusting when people are totally, completely, and ignorantly wrong.
And now for the number 3, also for fun I'd like to see if people can guess #2 and #1, so I'll give a little bit of time to let a couple people guess (About 30-40 minutes)
#3
Heath Ledger is what really carries the movie, he's honestly the only exceptionally strong element to the film, the rest is a shallow attempt at trying to be epic, dark, and meaningful.
B+
I bet 300 Rise of an Empire is under A Good Day to Die Hard Domestic 50 points. 2 peopleI bet 300 Rise of an Empire is under After Earth WW 50 points. 2 people I bet Mr Peabody and Sherman is over 90m domestic 50 points. 2 people
I agree, nobody saw 3 Days to Kill because it wasn't appealing, give the audience an appealing action movie and they'll go see it (We saw that last year with Olympus has Fallen)
It was to allow people's top choices to be more weighted, I've seen it done before and it gives passion voters a chance to get their movie on the list, it slightly backfire with this list simply because the voters were scattered on what to vote for. It's not like there were any films with mass support that failed to make it.
Great job!
I remember playing that part before, it's definitely a fun show, but I remember by the time it was over I wanted that freaking Who song to burn in hell it was so annoying (And that's the theme the Mayor sings everything on).
I'm usually pretty picky with my historical epics and usually get really mad when they butcher the history (being a history buff), yet for some reason I still really like Gladiator (despite it's gaping historical inaccuracies).
It simply means that the people who voted for Return of the King put it high on their list. It's also because there wasn't much universal agreeance on any film so it made more room for passion votes to rank higher up. (Like I mentioned earlier, I received 20 lists, and no movie managed to get even 10 individual votes)
Also, here is the number 2 for 2013
Now for overall number 4
