Despi...I really apreciate your honest feedback Sen! Despite my self-imposed rules, all the films on this list are personal favorites. If I don't impose those rules to myself I could change those picks everyday. There are so many films I cherish and love that I have to make a clear decision. <br /><br />And yes, I wanted to bring the fact that all those films were influential to the filmmakers of today and that they might be on the new list...<br /><br />Thanks for passing by and commenting this is very much appreciated!MPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08366182655374603950noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2379353038189641208.post-24799952337978431132012-05-24T13:18:33.407-04:002012-05-24T13:18:33.407-04:00A very interesting list, and well argued for the m...A very interesting list, and well argued for the most part - however I'm not very fond of self-imposed rules like the ones you've proposed. It seems to me that a list of the greatest films of all time shouldn't be constrained by arbitrary factors such as the country they were made in and whether they're silent or not, but should simply indicate which ten (or however many) films the maker of the list considers the best, otherwise it isn't really a "best of" list. Your arguments also seem to indicate that the list you've made is more of a list of influential films than your ten favourite ones. I'd be curious to see what list you'd come up with without limiting yourself to these rules.<br /><br />Also, I hope I'm not giving the impression that I think your list is invalid, it's just not the way I personally would use to make a list of this sort, and I agree that it's a good way of creating a unique list.Senhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02074825764101138630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2379353038189641208.post-21593411424296603592012-05-02T12:05:43.531-04:002012-05-02T12:05:43.531-04:00I bet you did!

I may consider doing a list one day, but just like Chip Lary said, I don't think I would be able to come up with just 10. You should consider doing an independent poll like your top 10 director's one. I bet it would be popular.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00597866901901238462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2379353038189641208.post-91387087180218485512012-04-28T11:47:41.544-04:002012-04-28T11:47:41.544-04:00Thank you Chip!

It reflects my tastes and influences as a film enthusiast. I'm sure the list will have some updates in 2022 but for now I think it will stay the same for a good time. <br />You should try the exercise I would be very interested to see what you would come up with!MPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08366182655374603950noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2379353038189641208.post-24853395969374818192012-04-27T17:07:25.290-04:002012-04-27T17:07:25.290-04:00I commend you for putting together your own list. ...I commend you for putting together your own list. I couldn't possibly limit myself to only 10 films, and any list I came up with would probably be radically different from a list I would put together the very next day.<br /><br />Of all the films on your list the only one I can be sure I would have on mine is Seven Samurai.Chip Laryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00787403805554027107noreply@blogger.com
