I stumbled on a classic this year, Idiocracy. I had never heard about it and caught it on cable one night just because it was by Mike Judge. I don't remember when I laughed so hard.

my current top 10

The Godfathers 1 and 2
The Grapes of Wrath
It's a Wonderful Life
American Graffiti
The Big Lebowski
The Straight Story
2001 a Space Odyssey
The Elephant Man
One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest
Chariots Of Fire

All these lists are a matter of personal choice of course, the Godfather appears frequently when folks make such lists...probably the one movie(s) that most can agree on! One of the first lists that I've actually seen every one...the only movie that I have problems with is The Big Lebowski, my friend brought the DVD over one night and we watched it...he loves it, me...well, not so much! Again, personal taste but I simply don't get it...all those times we were stoned in the 60's, to think we could have made a movie...
I'm a TV-first guy of course, think that movies simply can't compare to a good TV show but I suspect most feel differently.
