    That list doesn't look right. No Pulp Fiction, Godfather, Shawshank Redemption.

    I've only seen 7 of that movies. 3 of them cartoon ones

    21st century. As in from 2000 -> Now.

    Pulp Fiction - 1994
    Shawshank - 1994
    Godfather - 1972

    Hmmm.... '94 was a good year for movies.

    I'm disappointed that "Freddy Got Fingered" didn't make the cut. Then we could all just say: Crap list, move along.

    Did you spot the subtle troll bit? I'm actually proud of it. Not the "Freddy Got Fingered" part. That's not subtle, it's sarcastic.

    I've watched 32 of those. Not sure if that is a good or bad thing.

    My count is only 15.

    The Dark Knight is a great film easily my favourite in that group but unless I missed it there are no marvel movies on the list I thought Iron Man or Iron Man 2 would make the list it really was one of the films that made the Marvel Universe what it is today. I mean Inside Out is on the list (not one of my 15).
    Oh and no Spiderman films either. Spiderman (2002) kick started the Super hero movie franchise. Trying to think of other movies besides Super hero movies that should be on the list...

    Ah, yes, Zero Dark Thirty. I expected it win many Oscars, but it didn't.

    Yas!! Spirited Away. My brother and I rented the DVD years ago. Then watched it on M-net either a few months or years later, can't recall.

    Yeah this list is strange, it was clearly made by some pretentious hipster.
    Avatar is a huge film, I probably would put it on the list of greatest movies of all time, I didn't really enjoy the story but the film clearly left it mark, especially for 3D movies.

    Avatar was so big, it has it's own list.

    I would not have put The Social Network as a greatest film of all time. Not even close.

    By my count I have watched about 16 of those. I like the IMDB Top 100 list a lot more, the rankings of the films are a lot better according to me (personal taste, please no kill).
