A little top heavy with SF, I'd say. 4 of the top 5, 5 0f the top 7???? Maybe it's some kind of millennialism offshoot. I had somewhat fond memories of the original Star Wars, but I tried to watch it with my kids a year ago, they thought it was boring, and so did I. All this director's cut business with added footage is way overrated. Citizen Kane #22, no Dr. Strangelove? Well, at least they put Citizen Kane (just) ahead of Titanic, we got Titanic in heavy rotation with the kids, and the hour of running around in flooding corridors is a little, uh, redundant.
The trouble with this area is you'll get another flood of Neoconism when he comes back. Which brings to mind my favorite line from Dr. Strangelove, "You can't fight in here, this is the war room!".
