9. Goodfellas

Honorable Mention: The Departed, Road to Perdition, Once Upon a Time in America (goddamn theme here I guess), Lebowski, Infinity War/Endgame, Batman 1989, Spider-man (Raimi 1), Gone with the Wind, Two Towers, Matrix, Ghostbusters, Robocop, and Christmas Vacation

Man that's hard to put together. And this is a favorite list, not really a best movies I've seen. There's a lot of memories associated with my picks.

You and I apparently have the exact same fucking taste in movies, albeit I'd have the original Star Wars Trilogy, Indy 1-3, and the LOTR trilogy in my big list.
I still haven't been willing to get my wife to watch Requiem for a Dream. Its flat suicide inspiration.

we are old fogeys and movies were definitely made better back then. though, i think we still had a good movie era all the way up to 2003.
2003 was Return of The King, Pirates:Black Pearl, Finding Nemo and Kill Bill.
and John Favreau's "Elf"

I don't keep track of a top 10 (might try to nail one down later) but I can definitely give a top 3.
1. Fury Road
2. Blade Runner (Director's cut - no Harrison Ford narration and "I want more life, fucker!")
3. John Wick
Memento used to be #1 on my list, but it's fallen over time and Christopher Nolan repeating the same sorts of themes in his movies hasn't done it any favors. Probably still in top 10.
I'd probably try to fill out the rest in no particular order with my favorites from various genres. Ghost in the Shell for anime, etc.
That makes 5 so far.
Edit:
There will be Blood
13 Assassins
Goodfellas
The Matrix (imagine the sequels don't exist)
Death Race: Beyond Anarchy (ultimate guilty pleasure)
Honorable mentions:
Dredd
The Road Warrior
Anchorman
Ip Man
Fuck, this gets tough to narrow down once you start going.

Holy shit. I never realized all those came out in 2003. ROTK was fucking insanely good. And that means right before 2003 started we had TTT. Pirates Black Pearl is the only one I like of the series, it's fantastic. Kill Bill is my top 10, and Elf is my families Christmas Movie, cracks me up.
And this year we had ... Sonic, Bad Boys 3 (it was "fine"), and WW84. LOL.
