Yes, 100%

I believe they're all great films but in the wrong order. Far too many Wes Anderson movies in there and there's an in-depth breakdouwn of the votes on BBC Culture that shows only women voted for most of his. Also women are to blame for Spike Jonze being on there too.
Women are to blame for a lot of shit reallt.

>But one thing is certain: cinema isn’t dying, it’s evolving.
Stopped reading right there and skipped to the list

>City of God is in the list
>but not Elite Squad

Fucking drug dealer apologists.

The order isn't that relevant. There were too many critics, some of them rather shitty that's why top films are mostly mainstream movies or modern classics.

>all those Pixars

>5. Boyhood (Richard Linklater, 2014)
>11. Inside Llewyn Davis (Joel and Ethan Coen, 2013)
>19. Mad Max: Fury Road (George Miller, 2015)
>27. The Social Network (David Fincher, 2010)

Well I guess it's true they don't make 'em like they use to

>no memento
>no the prestige
>no inception
>no interstellar
>no batman begins
>no tdkr
shit list tbqh

>no good bait

You are just awful.

Mulholland Drive #1 bby yeh sukkat dik

>10. No Country for Old Men (Joel and Ethan Coen, 2007)
>11. Inside Llewyn Davis (Joel and Ethan Coen, 2013)
>14. The Act of Killing (Joshua Oppenheimer, 2012)
I'm OK with this. Act of Killing should be higher doe.

>5. Boyhood (Richard Linklater, 2014)
>7. The Tree of Life (Terrence Malick, 2011)
Wait, no I'm not.

The Tree Of Life is definitely the most pleb crushing kino released since the millennium. It should be higher if anything.

The Tree of Life was good though

Shubhra Gupta – The Indian Express (India)

1. Ankhon Dekhi (Rajat Kapoor, 2013)
2. Court (Chaitanya Tamhane, 2014)

9. Maqbool (Vishal Bhardwaj, 2003)
10. Lagaan: Once Upon a Time in India (Ashutosh Gowariker, 2001)

So how many of these masterpieces have you seen, Sup Forums?

>mulholland dr. #1
Not a totally shit list.

The Tree of Life was fucking shit.

>Holy Motors (Leos Carax, 2012)

Should I have gone to see this back when it was being shown in theaters?

If anything it's a good first year film student filter.

His name is CAR AXE LIONS and the movie is about SACRED ENGINES. Of fucking course you should've.

>1. Mulhol

Was about to post this guy! What was he thinking!?

He was thinking Bollywood movies. You tard.

>all those koreans
>not enough Kiarostami
most of this list makes me upset

The 21st Century is just shit

too much emotion based

>50. The Assassin (Hou Hsiao-hsien, 2015)

>my nigga WKW on #2
I'm okay with this list.

Fucking great list tbqh

all memes aside EoE should have been in the top 10

>Requiem for a Meme made the list

That list is PROPER shit. About 80 of those films have no point being in there.

List was posted on a patrician private tracker a few hours ago, see their response. Pic very related.

Inception is #51

What tracker?

Doesn't deserve that spot at all tbqh

>patricians
>emoticons
embarrassing

yes, private trackers are known for the intellectually stimulating discussion

Films that won't stand the test of time and will almost certainly fall far off the list:

88. Spotlight (Tom McCarthy, 2015)
81. Shame (Steve McQueen, 2011)
78. The Wolf of Wall Street (Martin Scorsese, 2013)
62. Inglourious Basterds (Quentin Tarantino, 2009)
59. A History of Violence (David Cronenberg, 2005)
57. Zero Dark Thirty (Kathryn Bigelow, 2012)
32. The Lives of Others (Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck, 2006)
26. 25th Hour (Spike Lee, 2002)
21. The Grand Budapest Hotel (Wes Anderson, 2014)

Besides that it isn't half bad.

>July 19, 1997

It's another list where Mulholland Drive is first. Last one was made 5 years ago. It seems to be slowly turning into 21st century Citizen Kane.

theyshootpictures.com/21stcentury_films50-1.htm

Better list.

Top 10 is pretty similar.

David Lynch is pretty much already in the pantheon of greatest filmmakers ever.

Almost all the same ones made it, but in different positions.

Sight & Sound list from 2012:
24. In the Mood for Love
28. Mulholland Drive
They are already canonized.

>the didn't include this masterpiece

fuck the bbc, as usual

Haneke is a fucking hack.

>muh French colony guilt
>Germans were always fascist!

Agreed. Fucking melo-drama fest that culminates in "ass-to-ass" as if that's the most horrifying thing to ever happen

oh whoops i cant read

memento and inception are both on it m8

I'm honestly shocked people still remember A History of Violence.

>ctrl+f Kubrick = 0 results
Didn't even have to read it.

>Wes Anderson anything
>5. Boyhood (Richard Linklater, 2014)
>19. Mad Max: Fury Road (George Miller, 2015)

Disgusting tbqh

>No Chang Dong Lee
What the fuck? Really?

aside from shitty list

>no lotr

HOW? Fellowship is literally perfect, the other two are also close to it.

moonrise kingdom should be top 25 and there shouldn't be any other wes anderson movies on the list tbqh

>Kubrick
>21st Century

>No Drive
>No Enter the Void
>No Von Trier
>No We Need to Talk About Kevin
>No Adaptation
>Requiem for a Dream at the bottom
>No Snatch or any mention of Guy RItchie or Edgar Wright, even on 90-100
>No Amores Perros, Birdman, or The Revenant
>No LOTR films
>No Master and Commander
>No The Departed
>No Little Miss Sunshine
>Her below Spring Breakers
>Spirited Away, Boyhood, and The Tree of Life on top 10
>Royal Tenembaums above Monnrise KIngdom
>Pixar Pixar Pixar
>The list goes on

TRIGGERED tbqh senpai, and this is from the top of my head. Who even wrote this?

You are incredibly stupid.

I thought Drive was fucking awful. Loved Nightcrawler to death, though.

I agree it should have Master and Commander, though. Are City of God or Elite Squad 2 on the list?

1. Kubrick died in 1999
2. Closest thing on the list is AI
3. (Hopefully) Obvious bait but still made me respond

Fuck, I forgot to include Nightcrawler, nice pick. Drive is not for everyone so it's fine. City of God is on a disappointing no.38 spot and Elite Squad 2 is not on it.

>City of God is no.38 spot
>No ES2 at all

>citizen kane
When will this meme end?

Inception on list but not Paprika, or any other Satoshi Kon.

No Primer.

Shame on list but not Hunger. List obviously the work of Brit apologists, but what more would you expect from the BBC?

. Boyhood (Richard Linklater, 2014)
. The Tree of Life (Terrence Malick, 2011)
>Wait, no I'm not.
Interesting to read this on Sup Forums. Just a few minutes ago I read a similar comment on a very different sort of website:
>This list has some greats, some WTFs, but the order and arrangement is infinite yawn. The position of white cis man worship talismans Boyhood and Tree of Life says everything that needs saying about this list.

Would you say you agree or disagree with the sentiment of that comment?

>boyhood
>5
>on the list at all
The movie was a shit

I haven't seen The White Ribbon, so you might be right about that one, but you are so, so wrong about Cache. I mean, where is that even coming from? A movie where white people shout at black and Algerian people instantly makes it about white guilt? Sounds like you are the one who has some white guilt, mate.

>No Von Trier
There are TWO Lars von Trier movies on this list, you illiterate.

>went to look at when Kiarostami's next movie will come out
>he died in july
did he get a sticky, Sup Forums?

>Sen to Chihiro no kamikakushi
Holy shit! FUCK THAT LIST, with all my rage.

pure kino, my friend

>1. Mulholland Drive

I like Lynch as much as the next guy, but seriously?

It's an artifact of the way the list was produced. They polled 177 film critics for their top ten.

MD is on there because it shamelessly panders to the preferences of compulsive movie nerds — noirish mood and atmosphere, check; meta inside-the-dream-factory setting, check; an actor in a dual role, check; evocative Angelo Badalamenti score, check; nude scenes and lesbian sex, check; bizarre, hallucinatory denouement, check; a narrative "puzzle" to be solved, ripe for endless consideration on the Internet, check ...

Can someone explain why Spring Breakers is on the list?


Like, at first time assumed SB was a shit summer flick for teen girls, but now I'm reading that it's satire?

But it fucking has a 5.3 on IMDb, so even if it is satire it's still shit

Well shit, skimmed past Melancholia and forgot Dogville was there. My mistake desu. You're still a fag tho

of course, anything with kylie minogue in it is god tier

It's a James Franco movie. You'd hardly recognize him though. In addition to satire and social commentary, the film was praised for its use of color and sound to establish an eerie, deranged mood. I would say fans of Sophie Coppola and movies like Nightcrawler would enjoy it.

>But it fucking has a 5.3 on IMDb, so even if it is satire it's still shit
Not at all mate. It has a low rating because it pissed off so many people who thought it was going to be a fun spring break movie starring Selena Gomez (her character exits the plot like, less than halfway through). Being hated by "the masses" is a mark of success for satire that criticizes the same, surely.

It's a great film, the problem is that the type of people who want to watch that movie based on the CRAZY PARTY SHIT flick it looks like on the outside are too stupid to appreciate Korine. It's a classic bait and switch. Although at this point I'd say that anybody who hasn't already seen it is too unsophisticated about cinema to appreciate it. Real high level film lovers don't hesitate to watch the latest Korine.

>29. WALL-E

Wall-E is shit tier Pixar

Toy Story is literally a thousand times better

>The act of killing #14

DUDE COMMUNISTS ARE GOOD GUYS LMAO

Fuck the BBC

kill yourself.

>all these garbage pleb films like oldboy and dark night in a "best films" list
>mulholland drive is the best

>hey guys this list is filled with pleb films to make everyone happy, lets be ultra contrarian with our number 1 lmao :^)

This is one of the worst "best of" lists I have seen.

Try reading the methodology. Here are the actual submissions.
bbc.com/culture/story/20160819-the-21st-centurys-100-greatest-films-who-voted

When you combine the preferences of hundreds of critics, some of them popular movie writers, some of them esoteric film scholars, you are going to get something like this.

OP is stupid for misdescribing the article. OP didn't say it was just for recent films

>I didn't read the url or article title at all :^)

It says "the 21st century's greatest films" right in the OP, literally, what are you talking about?

>white cis man worship talismans Boyhood and Tree of Life

I don't even like Boyhood but this is one of the dumbest things I have ever read in my life. It's like they didn't even watch either movie.

The only bad thing there is that The Social Network isn't higher up.

>no marvel flicks
>33. The Dark Knight (Christopher Nolan, 2008)

So DC is confirmed as the patrician capeshit producer.

Springbreakers is the pure embodiment of Style over Substance. Complete and utter trash.

You are just incapable of comprehending the substance unless there are characters onscreen spelling it out for you in expository dialogue. Spring Breakers is absolutely one of the defining films of this age. A slice in time that could be studied for decades to come.

>CTRL+F
>Ghost in the Shell 0 results
yeah seems legit

It's a Harmony Korine movie, just from the director you should know that it's not at all for teen girls. As a satire, it's moderately successful. It's extremely well shot though, and all the annoying Disney girls actually do a pretty good job. Probably wouldn't put it on a list like this though.
