This might just do nobody any good.

Thin Red Line has this fantastic piece that works as a precursor to Inception, Batman, Superman and Lord of the Rings:

1. Schindler's List

3. The English Patient
4. The Silence of the Lambs
5. Braveheart
6. Dances with Wolves (Goodfellas)
7. Uh... American Beauty? (Being John Malkovich)
8. Titanic, I guess (L.A. Confidential)
9. Forrest Gump, which is crap (Pulp Fiction... or Quiz Show)

Haven't seen Shakespeare in Love but I have t heard great things about it, so...
I have to agree, I only like 5 of these wins.

Amazingly easy to rank. First three are stone cold greatness. Then Titanic is the only other movie that I'd consider any good (and it is obviously hugely flawed). Rest rank from watchable to pretty shit.


Schindler's List
Unforgiven
Silence of the Lambs
Titanic
Forrest Gump
American Beauty
Braveheart
Dances With Wolves
English Patient
Shakespeare in Love

*American Beauty (1999)

It's been awhile since I posted on this thread. Now I've seen them all, so here's my new rankings
These are linked to my short reviews:

1. Dances with Wolves

2. Titanic

3. Unforgiven

4. Schindler's List

5. Forrest Gump

6. American Beauty

7. Shakespeare in Love

8. Braveheart

9. The English Patient *can't remember well enough to rate
10. Silence of the Lambs


*I think Silence of the Lambs is more like a 4/5 but it's not my type of movie and those ratings are based on how much I personally liked the films.

I think most of these are a better bunch of films than a lot of people give them credit for and the top was quite hard to rank. Shakespeare in Love has a lot of humour but does get a little bogged down in the romance towards the end. Didn't care for my bottom two at all, though.


1. Silence of the Lambs
2. Unforgiven
3. Schindler's List
4. Titanic
5. American Beauty
6. Forrest Gump
7. Dances With Wolves
8. Shakespeare in Love
9. The English Patient
10. Braveheart
