Not bad of a list, though I think a better thread would be "Your top pick movies for each year". Though that's just me.

Dating back to 1888, I would do that, but it would take a few hours.

I saw Taxi Driver a couple weeks ago. I honestly tried hard to like it....but it just didn't do it for me.

I went in with no expectations, and it became my #1 favorite movie. I hated Goodfellas though, which is surprising to most people.

I haven't seen everything on that list, but what I have seen was pretty good.

Actually, I thought it suffered the same flaw as Fight Club, where to both movies I loved the first half, but the second half turned so weird all of the sudden and I hated when it got to that stage. Fight Club and Goodfellas, respectively, started to go downhill when [spoiler] The "Overthrow the goverment" plot and the coke subplot came into play [/spoiler]

Nice list. I just bought Taxi Driver on blu ray the other day and it looks amazing. To make the great purchase better for some reason it came with a $20 off your purchase on MLB.com

Well, big thumbs up for including Eraserhead. Only 3 films on there I would include in my top 20 aswell, but that's more then I can say for most lists like this. :P

I personally couldn't stand Eraserhead. Most silent movie I've ever seen. I don't need constant action and explosions to keep my attention, but Eraserhead just went way too far to the other end of the spectrum..And yes, I realize dialogue isn't the focus of the movie. I guess I'm just not really into surrealism to begin with and I really don't like anything by Lynch outside of Twin Peaks and maybe Blue Velvet, so I'll just peg it down to personal distaste. I know quite a few people who like the movie.

I dislike your taste and this list, with the exception of a few movies i would include in my list too. No offense of course, that's just my opinion. :)

I loved Saving Private Ryan, The Matrix, and Blade 2. I thought the first blade was the best of the series. I would replace Shaun of the Dead with Dawn of the Dead(2004) if either were to be in the list.
