In fact all three of Polanski's latest films could theoretically make the list. At the moment I'll probably just kick off "Macbeth" and add "The Ghost Writer" in its place but "Carnage" and "Venus in Fur" may eventually make it, too.

OK, first of all a clear no to "Machete Kills."

For the FDtD series you should keep in mind that acclaim isn't the only thing that matters and the "Spy Kids" movies were ridiculously popular. As the 2nd one got very good reviews to further boost its credentials I'd say it's too early to add "From Dusk till Dawn: The Series".

However, I would like to suggest swapping both #'s 1 & 2 and #'s 3 & 4. While "El mariachi" wins influence "Sin City" wins popularity fairly easily and while acclaim is close I'd say SC takes that by a hair. As for 3 & 4 FDtD is more popular and influential than "Planet Terror" and the difference in acclaim is fairly small so that should be a no-brainer.

so, at what point will Boyhood be entering Linklater's list?

Check the first post. Toward the bottom I included all the existing lists that will be changed in the next update. I assume you'll be displeased with Boyhood's current rank but it hasn't been in the theatres for a long time yet and it's bound to rise in the future (eventually probably to #1). When "Before Midnight" first made the list it was down at #10, now it's #4. The Before trilogy will probably rise as well in the future by the way. Its acclaim and popularity at least equal that of "Dazed and Confused" at this point.

I'd have to disagree with you there. While they're matched in acclaimed, Dazed and Confused is definitely more popular of the two. It's become iconic enough for it to be referenced and spoofed in other movies and shows, plus I see it get screened in theaters quite frequently in Chicago. I don't see Boyhood becoming as culturally recognizable the same way Dazed and Confused is, nor do I see it revisiting theaters the same way too.

I was comparing DaC to the Before trilogy in that sentence. Plus, we're talking about eventually. At the moment DaC is #1 where it should be.

His biggest box office success so far and highly acclaimed, too. I feel it should make the list. I suggest #9 for now (below "Hugo", above "The Last Temptation of Christ"), kicking off "Gangs of New York".

Has to be #2 or #3. "X-Men" clearly has an advantage in influence but DoFP takes initial acclaim and popularity so I guess #2 should be fine.

I'd also say "Superman Returns" should be ahead of "Valkyrie" as it did way better at the box office and got better reviews, too.

For #'s 6-10:

6. Valkyrie
7. Mockingbird Lane
8. Apt Pupil
9. Jack the Giant Slayer
10. Public Access

I feel like "Che" should probably be kicked off. "Contagion" should rise to above "King of the Hill" and then "Behind the Candelabra" could be added between them.

Still difficult. I'd say the top 7 are pretty solid. After that it gets tricky. I'd put "Lincoln" at #9 at this point. It did slightly better at the box office than A.I. but the latter still has a fair advantage in acclaim. The question is whether to kick off Last Crusade or Duel but I think I'll go with Duel.

His highest grossing film but the one with the lowest critics rating at RT (though only just, plus it's his highest rated film at both the IMDb and RYM and won a number of awards including a top ten placement from the National Board of Review). It's definitely enough to beat "The Cable Guy" and I'll place it above "Reality Bites" as well unless people protest vigorously.

I think this should at least move above "The Unknown Woman".

Yeah I always kinda thought it was strange for Mitty to be in a relatively low spot on Stiller's list although it's understandable cause it's really recent.

Difficult, difficult, difficult list. And the one that is currently up kinda sucks. "The Idiots" seems too low. "Melancholia" seems too high. "Antichrist" needs to be added. The IMDb has decided to combine Riget I & II into one entry so I'll do that, too.

This looks reasonable:

1. The Kingdom [with Morten Arnfred]
2. Breaking the Waves
3. Dogville
4. Dancer in the Dark
5. The Idiots
6. Melancholia
7. Nymphomaniac
8. Europa
9. Antichrist
10. The Element of Crime

AKA The Last Sentence. And the last sentence is: Nope.
