EDIT: And after @StraxStrax hit me up and made a lot of sense I decided to go back into this post and lay out an important guideline: Rankings. The way we're going to decide the final list and its order will be on a point system:
1=10pts
2=9pts
3=8pts
4=7pts
5=6pts
6=5pts
7=4pts
8=3pts
9=2pts
10=1pt
So each time a flick is ranked in a specific spot, it gets points and the number 1 movie will be the one with the most points.
I threw the idea out there in another thread and it got some traction and as I sit back and watch the latest film for the #movieclub, I figured now was the time to make it official: We need a top 10 film of all time list. Sites have them and we have enough movie knowledge on this board to compile our own official list and here's how we're going to do it:
The list will be put together over the next 2 weeks, just to give everyone time but it's a hard cut off. If you don't have your 10 picks in by July 27, TS for you, and yes I am talking about tethered swimming. Each person will make a list of 10 films and from those lists, a consensus will be made and that will be the official list. You can pick any genre, don't feel constricted. But again, these are the films you think are the best of all time, not necessarily your favorite. E.g., Back to the future is in my top 10 of favorite films of all time, but do I think it's one of the 10 greatest films of all time? No. If you don't think you can make that distinction or if you don't think it's possible, don't make a list. Also, don't feel intimidated by the amount of films you've seen compared with other posters; all cinephiles are created equal and it's not a pissing contest, so just because one poster has seen 250 movies and you've only seen 100, don't back down.
Also, this forum is going to be just for lists...don't give an explanation of why you picked the film and no one come in and start clowning other lists..in fact, there should be no discussion in the thread whatsoever so let's see if we can keep it just to each poster's top 10 list and that's it.
@cook @hexagram23 hopefully you two can sticky this and anyone who wants to help me compile the list by tallying all of this up, let me know. I'm going to tag everyone in the movie club so we can help spread the word or at least get the thread moving. And remember they have to be ranked 1-10.
