Best Movies Ever...If You Haven't Seen Many

We have a new list of the Best Movies Ever from that quintessential source, Total Film Magazine.

I never heard of 'em, either.

But they have a list, by god. They have a list.

1. GoodFellas
2. Vertigo
3. Jaws
4. Fight Club
5. The Godfather Part II
6. Citizen Kane
7. Tokyo Story
8. The Empire Strikes Back
9. The Lord Of The Rings Trilogy
10. His Girl Friday

This brings a few questions to mind. 10, in fact.

1. How come "Lord of the Rings" gets squished into one entry when trilogy members "Godfather" and "Empire" get singled out?

2. Fight Club?

3. Notice how most of the Greatest Movies Ever were probably made within the lifetime of the writers of this list.

4. Jaws is a great flick, but ranking it above Kane is laughable to no end.

5. Fight Club?

6. Oh, and other than Tokyo Story, all the Greatest Movies Ever are in English.

7. GoodFellas is one of my favorite films ever, no argument about its placement on top, really. Much issue with the smug way the writer announces it in the story, though.

8. Not to be anti-populist or anything, but most of the Greatest Movies Ever seem to be ones pretty much everyone has already seen. This is not to say that popular movies cannot be great, but rather to note that, perhaps, the authors of this list may not have seen many films that aren't well-known.

9. No Fargo? Casablanca? Hoop Dreams? Pulp Fiction? Kubrick? Fellini? Kaufman? Chaplin?

10. FIGHT CLUB?!?!?!
