I'm up for this - lots of films I have yet to see there, but I'd rather takes films from the AFI & BFI top 100's;

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BFI_Top_100_British_films
Both has the distinct advantage of not ranking The Dark Knight at the 8th best film of all time :/
Holy shit what an absolutely ridiculous list.
I hope nobody holds this in any sort of esteem. It's terrible.
This is the ONLY 'film list' that matters.
Everyone on every forum needs to watch Citizen Kane so that they learn what that clapping .gif actually represents.

1001 has a bunch crummy movies and doesn't resolve any of the issue of TSPDT.
also just look at the unique films to 1001 - monsters,
apocalypto, muriel's wedding, my brilliant career - none of those films are any good. i suspect the list gets worse if you digger deeper.
What I don't like about the TSPDT that it includes too many minor works from great directors (Wilder's Avanti, Ford's The Sun Shines Bright, Scorsese's New York, New York, Godard's Passion...) and then neglects to list genre/film movement defining works from "lesser" directors like Sex, Lies and Videotape, The 36th Chamber of Shaolin, Planet of the Apes, The Wicker Man and The Ox-Bow Incident.
First of all, 2nd post in about 5 years of lurking...
I'm going through the AFI top 100. I'm knocking out the freebies on Netflix first. My very brief impressions:
Duck Soup- Meh. Doesn't really hold up too well in my opinion. A few very mildly amusing bits, (including the mirror scene), but overall the best thing was that this ran only 68 minutes.
