    I have been blessed by @Auteur Panda to present number 7 to y'all.  Obviously we are a few spots away, but here is a preview of my write up for number 7:

     

     

     

     

     

    Perhaps no film, in the long history of Hollywood, . Director Francis Ford Coppola, when interviewed in 1999, recalled 

     

     

    It went through five drafts before finally settling on the script that we know now.L

     

     

    pitched it to every studio and even though was coming off a huge hit  the budget kept increasing and screened an early cut of the film for  executives and several director friends. The cut had a different crawl from the finished version an

     

     

     

    Film critic Roger Ebert wrote in his book The Great Movies, “Like The Birth of a Nation and Citizen Kane,  a technical watershed that influenced many of the movies that came after.” It began a new generation of special effects and high-energy motion pictures. The film was one of the first to link genres together to invent a new, high-concept genre for filmmakers to build upon.  it shifted the film industry’s focus away from personal film making and towards fast-paced, big-budget blockbusters for younger audiences.

     

    Filmmakers who have said to have been influenced by Jaws is still my favourite film of all time, has done more to shape and influence film

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Ah, so its ranking decreased a little bit from two years ago. I hope the same happens to the other one too. We need a new film in its place this time.

  7. Both are great films but while one is a top 5 all time favourite for me the other is more like 200ish. I'll be really really disappointed if it's The Matrix that missed the list. The story, the visuals, the dialogue, the action, the costumes, the characters, the concept... Everything about that film is so good. Can never get bored of watching it. A special film that deserves special recognition.

    TDK missed the list, that's my guess. He's giving way too many hints.

     

     

    But then again, can it really miss the list? Surely a lot of people voted for it, even if not very high? Huh...

    :qotd:

    No way it missed the list. It's never even been out of the top 10 in any of the previous renditions of this thing.

  9. Also as we're getting higher up the list I am starting to get more and more worried that Spirited Away didn't make the list at all. Just missed the top 100 or something. But then Mononoke Hime made it and it will be quite surprising to see that beat Spirited Away (even though I personally consider Mononoke the better of the two).

    And here's twenty more just misses!

     

    146. Ferris Beuller's Day Off

    164. The Hunger Games: Catching Fire

    165. The Grand Budapest Hotel

    Quite surprising that Deathly Hallows part 2 made it over Prisoner of Azkaban as the best HP film. I thought there there was a clear consensus pretty much everywhere that PoA is the best of the lot
