606v2's Favourite Film?

First topic message reminder :

Just to start, this is not intended to interfere with King Beer's very successful 'Best Films Ever' topic, this is a very different concept.
This article is to determine the most popular film among the members of 606v2.
I will request everyone who wants to take part top ten films ever; in order.
After 3 weeks, on the 15th of May, i will count up all the votes and declare the top 10 most popular films on the board.
The scoring system will be very simple.
For each film that gets ranked #1, it will get ten points, #2 nine points, and so on.
I encourage as many people to take part as possible, as the results could be very interesting.
I will start of with a top ten of my own to kick things off:

1. The Shawshank Redemption
2. Scarface
3. Face/Off
4. Pulp Fiction
5. Se7en
6. Lucky Number Slevin
7. The Dark Knight
8. Get Rich or Die Tryin'
9. Rock N Rolla
10. Independence Day.

Near misses: Notorious, Snatch, Layer Cake, The Condemned, Armageddon, Taken, Green Street, Football Factory, Rise of the Footsolider, Die Hard 4.0 and The Departed. Obviously none of these mean anything vote wise; i just felt like putting them down as honourable mentions.

Anyway, i look forward to seeing people's top ten, and the results that will follow.
Everyone has their own opinion, choose wisely, and enjoy!

The Shawshank Redemption
The Silence of the Lambs
Jaws
The Terminator
The Dark Knight
se7en
The Wrestler
Transformers
Disturbia
The Taking of Pelham 123 (the remake with Denzel Washington)

Superman: The Movie
Jaws
Die Hard With A Vengeance
Pulp Fiction
Goodfellas
The Jerk
Wag The Dog
The Goonies
Stand By Me
Coming To America

These are my top ten films without the letter "E" in the title:
Barton Fink
Fargo
Raising Arizona
Nights Of Cabiria
Oldboy
Talk Radio
Barfly
Pulp Fiction
City Lights
Up

Nights Of Cabiria and Oldboy are obviously hugely controversial choices as they do contains the letter "E" when their original foreign title is used.  So as not to antagonise anyone (mainly the 667 Murderer) I offer these as replacements:

Bad Boy Bubby
Four Lions

These are my ten favourite films that contain the letters necessary to make the word c*nt:

One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest
True Romance
Pulp Fiction
No Country For Old Men
Once Upon A Time In The West
Brokeback Mountain
Cannibal Holocaust
You Can Count On Me
Nausicaa Of The Valley Of The Wind
Hansel And Gretel: Witch Hunters

 

Work keeping you busy, Galted?

Piling up next to me, Tino.

Galted, can you give us your list of favourite films that only contain the first 13 letters of the alphabet?  

It has just occurred to me that your job might actually be to compile amusing film top tens.

If it is, I apologise.

@ The Womble - I shall endeavour

@ Tino - nope, I work in the A & E section of a well-known London hospital

I look forward to it.

Is it GOSH? Or West Middlesex Hospital? That's quite well known, I was born there.

Are you a nurse?

Nah, mate. I'm a doctor.

Funnily enough Wingrove just got himself a job at Great Ormond Street Children's Hospital. He's a sniper.

Good god, you must be a clever chap. You hide it so well.....

Could have done with Wingrove last night actually. He would have dispersed the drunken Scots who were pestering us in no time.

Favourite films that only contain the first 13 letters at the alphabet:

M
Kill Bill
Amelie

These are the only films on my list of "268 films that I don't hate" that fulfil the criteria so apologies for it not being a top 10.

Not really a doctor.  Don't even work in a hospital.  Thought it might be funny to say so after I'd said the work was piling up but a bit worried this is going to get onto the Daily Mail site.

Ah, I get it now. Too subtle for me. I prefer your "Arwen sticks a tampon up her snatch" brand of comedy.

I am slightly relieved you're not a doctor.

You sound like my mum.

Your mum sounds like me.

I'll shout that at her next time I'm slapping her around.

Should really have said I work in a mortuary for the comedy effect.

B'stards, just got the "hide it so well" bit.

From the poll we did about a year ago

#1 - 12 Angry Men
#2 - In the Heat of the Night
#3 - The Outlaw Josie Wales
#4 - The Shawshank Redmption
#5 - Airplane
#6 - Saving Private Ryan
#7 - Blade Runner
#8 - The Empire Strikes Back
#9 - The Life of Brian
#10 -The Godfather II

Some decent films there dummy-half but your list suffers as follows:

#1 - each film contains an "E"
#2 - none of them contain the letters necessary to spell the word c*nt
#3 - each contains letters from the last 13 of the alphabet
