Battleship Potemkin was made in 1925, not 1915

Memento definitely must be in any list of this type, but this list contain a garbage and Racist movies like Birth of a Nation (1915, Griffith). this list is shit too.

This is a pretty bang-up list through and through. However, I’m saddened by the lack of The Bridge on the River Kwai, Paths of Glory, and Amadeus. To name a few, anyway.

Cinema is art. The filmmakers behind these films are auteurs. You are completely wrong to assert that they are “made for an audience first.” These films are made for expression and should be judged by the success of their expression in the context of film history. nUnder this criteria, 2001 absolutely deserves to be #1.

Maybe you should have some Nolan’s movies..nBig LebowskinLord of the rings (come one, how many academy awards?)nLe ConcertnSyndromes and a CenturynnAnd Modern Times.. please!nIt has music, dancing, comedy, drama, love, criticism..nDeserves a better place

Me and a couple of more friends are going to see every movie of this list, in 100 weeks, starting with #100 Japu00f3n and ending with #1 Space Odissey.nI just saw Japu00f3n… I must say, although I understand with some people would find it brilliant… I did not like it at all.nMost of my favorite movies are on this list though, so.. well done (so far). I must say though, I miss Kusturica on this list. White Cat, Black Cat is one of the best movies ever. And Cidade de Deus too

Thank you for making 2001 #1. That is as it should be.

Like the list except for the fact that you missednna.) Satyajit Raynnb.) Ridley Scott- Alien and especially Blade Runner deserves to be up there.nnc.)The Terminator could be in the bottom end

All lists of “greatest movies,” especially ordered ones, are absurd. At the same time, this one feels to me like one of the best I’ve ever seen. I’ve seen about half of the films on the list, and all of them but one strike me as worthy inclusions. I think what I like most about the list is its inclusion of “Synecdoche, New York,” which I believe is an overlooked masterpiece.

You seem to confuse the critical and the commercial sucess. Barry Lyndon was acclaim by critque and won several award for best movie and direction but have been indeed a flop in theater because common people are moron and unable to appreciate the art behind cinema such as wonderful compilation setting and the most realistic and beautiful reconstruction of all time

A masterpiece need years to be considered as such andThis list have been publish in 2010 and you seriously think much of film of the last five years should be there. Ok you’ve spend a good time in waching a couple of good commercial film in theater like Avatar or Wall-E recently but it’s hilarious and childish to condidered them as earning a place among the 100 greatest film ever made and that why you recieve so much reply than anyone who post a comment there. I think this list is extrodinary because it have a good selection of masterpiece from a bit all the great master of this medium of a bit all the decades (and that’s why ”I would be blood” is there) and a bit all the culture. 100, is small number compare of all the great film that’ve been made. There could be hundred of others who could justifiably be amoug them. But because the three best of Stanley Kubrick are indeed 2001, Dr. Strangelove and Clockwork Orange so is Raging Bull, Goodfellas and Taxi Driver the best of Scorsese and that both of them are important director, because that Nolan films are nothing than brillant blockbuster and that the Wisard of Oz and Casablanca had more impact on popular culture than any others film, this list is definatly significant but you’re right some of animation films could have been there, but Fantasia or Snow White , and not Nemo or cars

I always love to see the classic comment of where are my newer films.nWhy does the year it was made matter?

A list that celebrates Yi Yi but omits WALL-E, Slumdog Millionaire, The Shawshank Redemption, Schindler’s List and the like has no actual meaning. u00a0Yes, these lists are subjective, but it reads as though you don’t feel modern films have sufficient credibility to merit a placing.u00a0

One I think should make the list is Blow Up (Antonioni)

Have you actually watched Birth of a Nation recently? It hardly deserves its reputation for innovation – “Child of Paris” made 2 years earlier is light years ahead of the Birth….

FINALLY, yes.

2001.
