> no Mel Gibson or Koreeda films

shit list

>21st Century
>year 2000 is included

Some pleb choices but overall not a bad list. It's just that many very good films are lower on the list becauset the whole list is just a popularity contest.

>33. The Dark Knight (Christopher Nolan, 2008)
This is pretty disgusting, though.

>Lynch
>Malick
>Boyhood
>anime

>in the top 10
Bongcucks are plebes

Yeah what the fuck is this

Did a jew a made this list?

Top 10 looks similar in almost every list made by the critics. For some reason Westerners really love Spirited Away.

10. Silver Linings Playbook (David O. Russell, 2012)

Why are critics so afraid of tasteless movies? By tasteless I don't mean poorly made but intentionally provocative, trashy movies about things that snobby upper class liberals don't like to aknowledge.

NO NO NO NO NO

>Zodiac at 13.

Get a load of this brainlet. The 21st century started in 2001.

nice education you got there

BOYHOOD
IT TOOK TWELVE YEARS TO MAKE

>around the world

Lebanon, the UAE, China, Bangladesh, Chile, Namibia, Kazakhstan and many others are represented too. Of the 177 critics, 55 are women and 122 are men.
More than half are from the US/UK.

Nice American wikipedia you got there.

Does anyone else's opinion really matter?

Anglos dominating yet again.

jokes on you I'm a leaf

>he doesn't rate Zodiac

>74. Spring Breakers (Harmony Korine, 2012)
D R O P P E D

not him but zodiac is a good film but there have been movies that have done the same thing only better

the best film on the list

i like it but compared to Act of Killing?
also why the fuck is children of men even on there

pretty sure a touch of sun is supposed to be there
and manchester, city of z and ghost story came out after this late

They really put a david lynch movie as the BEST film of the century? How tightly does TM hold these cucks? Lynch could end hollywood if he felt like it

>81 from the US
explains a lot

Mulholland drive is possibly Lynch's worst movie.

they shouldn't make a list when we're barely even at the midway point of the 21st century

we're not even a quarter of the way through...

>81 from the us
i thought the bbc was based in europe?

It's almost always first or second.

are you retarded or did you purposely repeat what i just said

>burger reviewers

Re-read what you wrote, it's not correct. We're not barely at the midway point, we're nowhere near.

Never post again.

>why don't snobby upper class liberals like movies about things that snobby upper class liberals don't like to acknowledge?

i said that we weren't even at the midway point of the 21st century which is correct

>bbc anything
lmao

>3. There Will Be Blood (Paul Thomas Anderson, 2007)
>10. No Country for Old Men (Joel and Ethan Coen, 2007)
>92. The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford (Andrew Dominik, 2007)
if this list was literally in reverse order it would be 100x more interesting

SB is kino as fuck

>it's fucking real
Your country is such a meme sometimes

>74. Spring Breakers (Harmony Korine, 2012)
*breathes in* AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA

jesus christ how embarrassing

I amazed he included a non American film in this list, as it cements he knew he could pick ANY film and not just ones from America

>Boyhood in the top 5
D R O P P E D
R
O
P
P
E

>Boyhood is bad meemee

wew lad

Which one was a non-American film.

spring breakers is kino

Love Actually, Richard Curtis.

>Interstellar nowhere to be found

AYYY LMAO

>no looper
is there a looper that doesn't star joseph gordon levitt and bruce willis?

The ABSOLUTE state of Burger "Cinephiles".

>TFA and Captain America in the Top 5

I can't believe this shit. I'm laughing pretty hard, right now.

>top rated sci-fi movie of the 21st century
>not good because 'muh feelings

Let me guess, you're American.

>top rated scifi
no feat. might aswell say top rated capeshit.

He also includes a film from 2000 which is non-eligible

Somehow it's still genuinely less embarrassing than the rubes getting duped by redneck trashhumping brainlet Harmony Korine's blatant attempt to Emperor's New Clothes them though

>Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Meme in Top 10

wew fuckin lad

>assassination of jeese james not in top 10

stopped reading there

>ctrl+F "refn"
>0 results
>yet Mad Max Fury Road in top 20

really sizzles my burgers

>no smug denis

yeah ok

>>no lord of the rings
That would be racist, don't worry black panther will make the next list

>59. A History of Violence (David Cronenberg, 2005)
>57. Zero Dark Thirty (Kathryn Bigelow, 2012)
The list is backwards right?

Found the rube^, lads

>Boyhood
I fucking hate the BBC.

There were no ayyys in Interstellar.

>mfw people think they understand Interstellar.

Boyhood is bad.

>no womyn until 22

There is still hope in this world lads

>number 5: boyhood

>(you)

no matrix. wtf is this shit list, fuck that

>14. The Act of Killing (Joshua Oppenheimer, 2012)
How are flicks like this making it up these lists? It's an interesting story, but it has the production quality of a youtube video. It could literally be a youtube video, could be produced by Vice

>"We're barely even at the midway point of the 21st century"
M8......

>Yi Yi: A One and a Two and Tree of life being so high up
I'm pleasantly surprised

...

Way too many mainstream media critics. Based historians barely keeping it afloat.

>Lagaan

Based

Laughed so hard at BvS i farted

>5. Boyhood (Richard Linklater, 2014)

I thought the hype around this one had died already. Fucking hell. It's not even a top 5 richard linklater film.

>21st century
>there are films from 200 on it

Probably your most impressive intellectual output of the year desu

meme

>5. Boyhood

i dont care, no movie list of this kind is complete without the matrix :S

>No LOTR

Straight into the trash.

children of men in the top fifty, let alone the top fifteen, is a fucking joke

>20. Synecdoche, New York
>19. Mad Max: Fury Road
jesus fucking christ
