HSX Users Best of the Century Poll - Entry post
Here's how this will work. I've created a google doc to track all the submissions but you can follow up this post with your submission.
The submission rules are pretty simple - you can list as many films as you want but you do have to pick your ten favorites and list them in order in this format (these are mine and year is imdb year):
1) In the Mood for Love (dir. Kar Wai Wong, 2000)
2) Kill Bill Vol 1. (dir. Quentin Tarantino, 2003)
3) Mulholland Dr. (dir. David Lynch, 2001)
4) Battle Royale (dir. Kinji Fukasaku, 2000)
5) Enter the Void (dir. Gaspar Noe, 2009)
6) Spring Breakers (dir. Harmony Korine, 2012)
7) Inglorious Basterds (dir. Quentin Tarantino, 2009)
8) Let the Right One In (dir. Tomas Alfredson, 2008)
9) Zodiac (dir. David Fincher, 2007)
10) Observe and Report (dir. Jody Hill, 2009)
I'll use the imdb year as the defining method to prove it belongs to this century.
I'll enter the titles into the google spreadsheet and keep a running total (this way I can make sure the titles are all uniform which will allow the calculations to be automatic). I'll post once a week on Wed to have a place where everyone can jump in and I'll keep submission open at least until the end of July.
Please keep in mind this is for fun and discussion and that everyone's tastes are equal. You are free to post your least favorites and if I can get enough I'll track those too.
Have at it!

Let me be the first to compliment you on your REALLY WEIRD TOP 10 :-) {nm} Jun 29, 12:56
thanks! i think? {nm} Jun 29, 13:00
Observe and report ??? ... For one {nm} Jun 29, 13:11
Solid list. Plus you and I have a couple that overlap, but won't say which. My #1 isn't even on your list, and your #10 Jun 29, 13:39
I knew O&R would be controversial. For me the whole antagonist as a hero (and how its so true to that belief) is refresing Jun 29, 14:11
my brother and I quote it all the time. love that film. {nm} Jun 29, 17:06
Here's mine (inside)... Jun 29, 13:55
you've great, classical choices on here {nm} Jun 29, 14:24
post it! I have a flash drive I take with me on trips that has 75 of my favorite "comfort movies". Jun 29, 14:58
Here you go (inside)... Jun 30, 07:19
Here's mine... Jun 29, 14:13
Toy Story 3 beginning and end were great A+, the middle gets a D - can't tell you how much I hated that storyline {nm} Jun 29, 14:36
I agree the middle of Toys 3 might need a touch more work Jun 29, 15:23
Here's mine Jun 29, 14:31
Scott Pilgrim Vs The World makes my weirdest movies of the years least but not good enough to make top 10 {nm} Jun 29, 14:33
I could write essays on why this is the film of this generation. {nm} Jun 30, 00:33
first time I saw Pilgrim I hated it. watched it again and realized it was a masterpiece. excellent film {nm} Jun 30, 08:36
(oops i meant hated royal tennebaums) {nm} Jun 29, 15:18
You're not the only one:)...Royal T was a big letdown for me... {nm} Jun 29, 15:25
What can I say? I think its his best attempt at mixing light/quirky and dark/serious. {nm} Jun 30, 00:32
Thanks a lot! Here are mine. Jun 29, 14:35
i feel bad leaving off dark knight. i also feel bad never having seen eternal sunshine or oldboy! {nm} Jun 29, 15:01
Dark Knight makes my most disappointed list (I think I gave it a C-), the other 2 are on my list to see. {nm} Jun 29, 15:04
I had a list of about 20, and trimming it wasn't easy, but Had fun widdling the list down though. Jun 29, 16:51
I had Memento and Inception on my possibles Jun 29, 15:18
be still my heart on #8... love that film {nm} Jun 29, 17:08
thanks, eager to see how it turns out! (mine) Jun 29, 14:52

Ah, "The Fall" was great, great fun. {nm} Jun 29, 15:45
My Top 10 (thought I'd be the only one with Enter the Void :P ) Jun 29, 16:16
is this in no order or is Whiplash #1? {nm} Jun 29, 17:35
In order, sorry. {nm} Jun 29, 17:36
so whiplash is 1, right? {nm} Jun 29, 17:45

thank you, looking forward to yours {nm} Jun 30, 08:05
12 entries so far. {nm} Jun 29, 18:42
if im seeing right, i see 7 movies directed/co-directed by women. not being controversial, im just saying... Jun 29, 19:14
(wiki has Katia Lund as a co-director) {nm} Jun 29, 19:36
but i dont know how involved she was, or about billing, etc {nm} Jun 29, 19:36

My list... Jun 29, 19:31
high five for high fidelity! (and its in your top 5 which is fitting) {nm} Jun 29, 19:53
I'll give it a go. Jun 29, 22:05
Vol 1 then. {nm} Jun 30, 08:17
that's what i picked too {nm} Jun 30, 09:52
And almost famous counts if its 2000 so you can include it {nm} Jun 29, 23:43
Put it at 10 then. Wow that's tough, Perros is a masterpiece. {nm} Jun 30, 08:17
agree, but its been damaged a bit for me by his recent output although i really loved Revenant {nm} Jun 30, 09:53
A great list: nice to see "The White Ribbon" and "Michael Clayton," even on among the honourables. {nm} Jun 30, 07:27
My List. thx for this Jun 30, 09:27
Here's my Top 10 Jun 30, 09:28
