really don't care about the final list at all and kinda can't believe anyone really does (in fact i'm dreading the idea of 'kane' getting pushed off the top spot if only because of the completely pointless backlash/debate it'll generate) but i do always love browsing the individual lists.

yeah i would cosign that, i remember assiduously poring over the 2k2 top 10 ballots

unless 8-1/2 counts, has a comedy by anyone except Chaplin ever made the top 10?

surely 'the general' made it at some point?

It did, twice, yeah. Also Le Million and Singin' in the Rain if you count musicals.

i can't really rationalize my interest in these lists (other than, as said above, it was basically the start of my film education). but it's always fun to see what places around 50 and later.

i feel a little bad admitting it but i basically have no desire ever to watch 'satantango.'

Screw that noise, I obsess over every single-slot shift in the top 10 like a madman. Things that place below 10, much less 50, do not count.

Replacing just one movie? (also, bad form to reveal one's ballot early? I suspect others will leak too.)

The Decalogue is one work, so S&S can suck it (if Rog is representing their rules accurately).

Think he's just bending over backwards to find some way to justify to himself not simply re-running his '02 ballot with no changes.

Of course, I have no idea what the editor specifically told contributors, or if specific titles were named as examples.

With all the online-only people I know that are involved, I wonder if this year S&S isn't opening up a third category exclusively for the new breed.

Aside from a couple specific voices there, I'd prefer to blame the canonization of a real good musical like Singin' in the Rain for the distaste/indifference.

"I'm not going to beat around the bushes with this: 'Jurassic Park' remains a modern marvel to me. In this cinematic age where substance subsides to style among the masses, Spielberg's blockbuster masterpiece seamlessly blended a rich and fantastic story with incredible special effects that continue to awe and inspire. I truly believe it deserves a spot amongst the top 10. That being said, I've never been that fond of 'Singin' in the Rain.' Though I'm not disputing its significance in cinema's history, I'd probably bump that one to make room for 'Jurassic Park,' especially since it's ranked tenth."

"Anyone who knows me could see this answer coming a mile away. I'd remove 'Singin' in the Rain,' on the grounds that I can rarely tolerate musicals. And I'd add director Darren Aronofsky's 'The Fountain,' my personal favorite movie of all time.

"I'm that awful human being that doesn't love Francis Ford Coppola's 'Godfather' trilogy in the same way that most do, so I'd remove the two-fer of 'The Godfather Parts I and II.' Much like 'The Rules of the Game' and 'Sunrise,' they're films that I appreciate more than I outright enjoy, but they don't give me the same sort of artistic appreciation that these other works do, so my apologies to Coppola (who won't likely be sending me any of his wine anytime soon), but his films is an offer I'd be able to refuse...sorry for the pun. As for what to replace it with, I have to go with my favorite film of all time: 'The Shawshank Redemption.' It's everything that you go to the movies for, and if it's not quite as historical a film, it more than makes up for it with quality. Perhaps not a highbrow enough pick for some, but it's the most honest choice that I can make."
