This made me chuckle out loud. Couldn't have said it better myself.
No offense, metternich. You are a super cool guy and a lot of fun, but those two movies suck huge donkey balls. If either of them made any top 20 list for an entire decade, that list would have no credibility. Just sayin'.
Seriously though. There's a difference between personally enjoying a movie, and thinking it should represent one the best movies of a decade. I have my own guilty pleasures -- movies that aren't great, but like them, and re-watch them, nonetheless. But that doesn't mean I think they should make the list. I also like a lot of alternative & genre-bending movies, which I might actually rank high because they're great movies (Possession, Clean,Shaven, Men Behind the Sun), but notice I'm not backing them because if no one else is voting for them, they shouldn't make the list.
C'mon people. Let's make it good.
