Here goes... 
Name your top ten films ever. Simple as. The cutoff date for "ever" is any film made and released in the cinema (or straight-to-video/TV) by the time this thread is created - I anticipate this running for a little while, so no sneaking in "Indiana Jones XIV: There must be some quasi-religious artefact we haven't found".
When I get bored, I'll collect all of the votes and post the 30 most popular for the entire of GTP to vote upon and we can see GTP's top ten films of all time...
My top 10:
1. LOTR Trilogy (and even better in extended versions)
2. Sleuth
3. Batman Returns
4. The Hunt For Red October
5. The Hunted
6. Star Trek films (really only "The Wrath of Khan", "Insurrection" and "First Contact", but hey. Although "Nemesis" was good too)
7. Memento
8. Alien Quadrilogy (the first sequel being the film of choice).
9. Terminator 2: Judgment Day (superior to the first and... dont' talk about the third)
10. The Fifth Element
(feel free to vote for either individual films in a series, or the series themselves, but don't include multiple individual films from a series - either vote for, say, LOTR or, say, Return of the King. Don't vote for Return of the King AND The Two Towers as separate entities in your list of 10. Please.)
All votes for Matrix films will be ignored, as you're clearly delusional
Edit: The thread will close on Christmas Eve. You will then have one week to vote for your 3 favourites in the subsequent list of "less than 31" films.
