ICS's Best Films of the Decade (2010s)
Favs/dislikes: 4:0. Of all the masterful films in the ICS Best of Decade list, two 2011 releases stood head and shoulders above the rest in the voters’ current mindset: Kenneth Lonergan’s uniquely structured Margaret and Terrence Malick’s metaphysical family drama The Tree of Life. Margaret tells the story of an awkward, passionate teenager whose feelings of guilt over a tragic bus accident propel her into moral dilemmas and a quest for justice, against the backdrop of post-9/11 New York as a metaphor for coming of age and the loss of childhood naivety. Upon its release Margaret was considered messy, sometimes brilliant, and controversial – and it has remained so, yet has only grown in stature. Conversely, Malick’s whispered evocation of nature vs. grace, The Tree of Life, was celebrated from the outset and has held up magnificently over time, the dynamics of a Texas family flowing into the natural world like a flight of birds. While American filmmakers claimed the top two spots, the rest of our top 10 was dominated by international auteurs. Coming in third was French director Leos Carax’s surreal exploration of identity Holy Motors (ICS Best Picture for 2012), followed by Asghar Farhadi’s Iranian divorce drama A Separation (which had won ICS Best Picture for 2011 over both Malick and Lonergan). Todd Haynes’ period love story Carol, our 2015 Best Picture, ended up in 5th place for the decade, followed by Xavier Dolan’s deeply felt transgender romance Laurence Anyways, Lucrecia Martel’s colonialist satire Zama, Martin Scorsese’s haunting missionary saga Silence, the always-controversial Abdellatif Kechiche’s Mektoub, My Love: Canto Uno, and Ryûsuke Hamaguchi’s five-hour Sirkian melodrama Happy Hour. The full ICS Best of the Decade list can be found below. The list is 102 films because #59 Arabian Nights is considered as one entry by the ICS -
Jim Emerson's "102 Movies You Must See"
Favs/dislikes: 16:0. "These are the movies I just kind of figure everybody ought to have seen in order to have any sort of informed discussion about movies. They’re the common cultural currency of our time, the basic cinematic texts that everyone should know, at minimum, to be somewhat ‘movie-literate.’ I hope these movies are experiences we can all assume we share….This isn’t like Roger Ebert’s ‘Great Movies’ series. It’s not my idea of The Best Movies Ever Made (that would be a different list, though there’s some overlap here), or limited to my personal favorites or my estimation of the most important or influential films…. I tried to represent key examples of all important genres, movie stars, directors, historical movements, and so on — like an overview of the 20th century in 101 movies. Yes, there are many more I’d like to add, but remember, this is only a primer. How many have you seen?" —Jim Emerson -

John Kobal Presents the Top 100 Movies

Kobal used the typical point system where he solicited top 10 lists with #1 getting 10 points, and #10 getting 1, with films on unranked lists getting 5.5." -

Moovy.dk Top100 Movie 2021
Favs/dislikes: 1:0. I foråret 2021 kårede brugerne på det danske filmsite moovy.dk de 100 bedste film. Alle havde mulighed for at indsende deres lister med deres 50 favoritfilm rangeret efter bedste først. Ud fra disse lister blev Top 100 udregnet og offentliggjort. Følgende regler var gældende: Kun film der er listet som "feature film" på IMDB kunne accepteres. Obs. Nogle film deler samme plads, grundet pointsammenfald. Dette er desværre ikke muligt at illustrere på ICM. Kilde – Nomineringstråd (med forklaring af pointsystem): https://www.moovy.dk/forum/bland-selv/Moovys-top-100-film_2?page=1 -

Paste's 100 Best French Films of All Time
Favs/dislikes: 7:0. French language cinema covers vast swathes of history, geography and genre. The best French movies aren’t simply the product of a French person working strictly with a French team, they represent film as entelechy—a century of directors rooting around within the source code of this particular form of storytelling, pushing it into realms equally transcendent and horrifying. For its own sake. Because it is right to do so. If there is anything unifying the films in the following list—besides the French language—it might be that there exists a current of fundamental innovation throughout the many years surveyed. Auteurist visions care of Belgium, Greece, Poland, Denmark, Taiwan, Spain, Italy, the Netherlands and Senegal course through and inform the prelapsarian innards of French cinema, transforming the country into a hub for international film. This is foundational stuff. With the following we’re trying to provide a primer on French language film from an English-speaking perspective, exploring the schools of thought and exotic taxonomies that have defined what French filmmaking has been since George Méliès first set a moon cackling like a creep in 1902, and what it can be, skin-flaying, cannibalistic Grand Guignol nightmares and all. The Nouvelle Vague—both those of the Left Bank (Agnès Varda, her husband Jacques Demy, Alain Resnais and Chris Marker) and the Cahiers du cinéma crew (Jean-Luc Godard, François Truffaut and Claude Chabrol)—the erotic French thriller, the mind-bending (and bowel-emptying) horror of the New French Extremity, the colorful musical, the social farce, the sprawling crime film, the experimental vérité, the personal and unflinching documentaries: Even as so many films on this list have irrevocably altered our ideas of what filmmaking can mean, what it can do, so do they exist on the fringes, at the limits, willing to test the boundaries of taste, logic and (in the case of Chantal Akerman) time in order to question and then pull apart the systems and expectations that stagnate art and oppress artists. -
Paste's 100 Best Superhero Movies of All Time
Favs/dislikes: 7:2. Published in January 2017 (updated June 2023) Two things quickly become evident when putting together a list of the 100 Best Superhero Movies of All Time. First, this is the Golden Age for such films, a decade where technology, long-unrequited fandom and surging popular awareness have all combined to thrill moviegoers and make Hollywood billions of dollars. Second, it’s still fair to say that most superhero films are not that good. There’s no real contradiction at play here. The niche just lacks the pedigree of its fellow movie genres. Though superhero comic books may have started to make a dint in popular culture 75 years ago (give or take), technology only crossed over from hindrance to enabling force in the last 20 years or so. As a result, while curating a 100 Best Westerns of All Time or 100 Best Documentaries of All Time list requires the exclusion of arguably good films to select the best 100—for superhero movies? The pickings get slim after 40. In fact, the real challenge for this list was choosing amongst the dreck (some of it beloved dreck!) that would fill out the bottom half. It turns out it’s much easier to argue for or against a top 10 film’s exact placement (and frankly, compelling arguments could be made for almost any of our top 5 as deserving the #1 position), than weighing the relative “merits” of Masters of the Universe, Swamp Thing and Elektra. This also means the bottom half of this list will change swiftly compared to, say, The Best B-Movies of All Time. In fact, it’s a safe assumption if there are 15 superhero movies in the next three years, at least 14 of them will knock numbers 86-99 off this list. (Our #100 is a bit of a wild card.) Finally, some criteria. To be considered for this list, a film must possess at least two of the following three qualities: 1) It must involve costumed shenanigans, 2) It must involve a superpowered protagonist and/or 3) the protagonist must exist in a world where the supernatural/extraordinary is demonstrably present. These criteria are why meta-commentary films like Kick-Ass and Super are not on this list. And it’s also why some films with pulpy characters like Zorro, Tarzan and Conan are not, while others like The Phantom are. (Zane’s costume combined with the Skulls of Touganda do the trick.) Admittedly, the lines gets blurry. Also absent from this list is any consideration of foreign superhero films. That’s not because some are not worthy—especially given the movie quality issue mentioned at the top—it’s just an area we’d rather get better versed in before pouring into this list. Next year, perhaps. The three Matrix films were counted as a single entry in the source list. -
