Barry Lyndon -- it's good, it's not better than most of 50 films ranked behind it

Pierrot le Fou and Contempt -- Godard was so productive in a short span that everyone gravitates to their favorites, but having four Godard films and *not* Vivre sa Vie is absolutely mental

Mulholland Dr -- really? this consistently is one of everyone's top ten favorite movies? or did everyone decide David Lynch must be on here and landed on this one

Fear Eats the Soul -- haven't dug deep into Fassbinder but I feel like he has a better choice than this

Close-Up -- not my favorite Kiarostami

The Rules of the Game -- thankfully no longer top ten, but still astronomically high
