I don't think we should be ashamed that our top movies are riddled with non classics. We don't all have to agree that the best are Casablanca and The Godfather and such.. I like these lists. They're all the lists of true movie lovers.Side note: no wonder 4815162342 is so damn smart. His list makes me feel like a moron.

Just so you guys know, I couldn't accept two lists submitted after the deadline (one a new list and one a revision). The #1 film would have actually been different had I done so. The only thing I accepted were two people who had a single duplicate in their list and replaced them. I'll let you guys know how the results may have been different though.

Damn wish I could have participated. I was basically out of town over the last two weeks. Oh well, next time baby.

That's okay, I'm sure yours has a lot of the same as mine. :)
