	Apolytoner's Favorite Films Remove this text

If beauty is in the eye of the beholder, I suspect each of us would compose entirely different lists of their favorite films. I suggest that each of us give a list of his or her ten most favorite films, and then, from that series of lists, cull a consensus list by totalling the numbers the Apolytoners' list. (A film ranked 1 by a member would receive 10 points, for example.)

My list:

1. Empire Strikes Back
2. Saving Private Ryan
3. Babe
4. Return of the King
5. Dances with Wolves
6. Lawrence of Arabia
7. From Here to Eternity
8. Midnight Cowboy
9. Titanic
10. Gladiator

Of all of Mel Brooks' films, that's your favorite? Don't get me wrong, it's a hilarious movie. (I will often find myself humming the Inquisition song... and who can forget: "He's a eunuch... HE'S a eunuch... He's dead!") But better than The Producers, Young Frankenstein, Blazing Saddles?

Better than those? Not necessarily. But I enjoyed it more (of course, I enjoyed the others as well...though I haven't seen Blazing Saddles).

When it comes down to it, I would much rather pop in HOTWP1 than any of the others. Plus...it makes fun of history. I like that...

I think that's 10 . After the first 5 they really aren't in order. It's really too difficult to choose one over the other.

edit: I had to add Clerks in there. It's still pretty close to 10 films
