TPWW's Best Movies Ever List

[House of Pancakes]

I'm doing the same for Rajah, so I think I'll do one here too.

You reply and list UP TO 20 movies in order of your nominations for BEST [not necessarily favorite] films of all-time. The first movie on your list will get 20 points, and the last one will get 1 point. Once we get enough responses, I'll tally up all the movie points and make a list. I'm hoping we could get a Top 100 list. So if you're up for it, list your favorites.

Movies should be considered for artistic merit, plot progression, charactr progression, dialogue, acting, story-telling, and genre-relation [if a movie is a trend-setter for its genre], all of that stuff. Remember, these aren't necessarily your FAVORITE movies [although if you're having trouble ordering them, they should be, and they can be in general], these are the BEST movies.

Things to keep in mind:

1. If you list, say, 10 movies, the points still go from 20 down.

2. For movies like The Matrix, Lord of the Rings, and Star Wars, each individual movie must be accounted for. Therefore you must separate the movies into getting individual points.

3. If movies have been re-made, please specify whether you're nominating the original movie or the re-make.

4. If you are going to edit and change around your list at all, let me know in your post, and let me know when your list is done. This will make things much easier on me. When you make a list, try to make a finished list. So, get cracking on thos lists.
