I love love love his movies, but he would probably realistically be somewhere in my top ten filmmakers of all time.

Re: WORLD OF KJ'S 100 GREATEST MOVIES: THE TOP 10! Yay Raiders. I mean, not #2 of all time, but I love it.
So a LOTR movie will be the #1 movie of all time. How boring, lame, predictable, and annoying all at once.

Re: WORLD OF KJ'S 100 GREATEST MOVIES: THE TOP 10! I only had it at #17, but it I'm not complaining too much. I guess I just like
more substantial films at the very top.

Re: WORLD OF KJ'S 100 GREATEST MOVIES: THE TOP 10! I was actually considering leaving Raiders of the Lost Ark off my ballot. I wonder what ranking it would have made then.

Re: WORLD OF KJ'S 100 GREATEST MOVIES: THE TOP 10! Fantastic effort, box. Thanks for hosting.
I pretty much hate the list, but did have fun getting disappointed every now and then.

Re: WORLD OF KJ'S 100 GREATEST MOVIES: THE TOP 10! Raiders was probably my most enjoyable theater viewing ever. Top five anyway.

Re: WORLD OF KJ'S 100 GREATEST MOVIES: THE TOP 10! #1: THE LORD OF THE RINGS: THE RETURN OF THE KING
Yeah. It wasn't even close. ROTK won by a huge margin, more than ten points ahead of of Raiders in a competition where films often ended up with the same number of points! Interestingly, though, it got only 22 votes- far less than Jaws and The Matrix and several other films.
If we assigned films one point each, Matrix would've ended #1, with Jaws a close second (both got 27 votes, the most of any). ROTK wouldn't have made the top ten. Titanic would have.
