I really should watch some Preston Sturges stuff sometime. Did Turner ever get around to colorizing any of them?

If this were held today, which high finishers drop way down on the list? I'd guess Annie Hall, Lebowsky, Rushmore, Superbad, South Park.... what moves up, and what newcomers make the list?

Don't know how much support it would get, but Appropriate Behaviour is easily the best post-2012 comedy I've seen.
