Jonathan Rosenbaum: My 25 Favorite Films of the 21st Century (so far)
Favs/dislikes: 0:0. "Not so long ago, A.O. Scott and Manohla Dargis decided to [url=https://www.icheckmovies.com/lists/ny+times+25+best+films+of+the+21st+century.+so+far./knaldskalle/]name their 25 favorite films of this millennium so far[/url]. More recently, [url=https://www.icheckmovies.com/lists/j.+hoberman+25+for+21/knaldskalle/]J. Hoberman decided to play the same game[/url]. I’ve decided to play as well. My only rule in this game, not followed by Hoberman, was to restrict my favorite filmmakers on the list to only one film each –- not always easy, and sometimes downright agonizing." -Jonathan Rosenbaum Alphabetical order. -

J. Hoberman: 25 for 21
Favs/dislikes: 2:0. "People have been asking me so I thought I might as well join (or crash) the party initiated by [url=https://www.icheckmovies.com/lists/ny+times+25+best+films+of+the+21st+century.+so+far./knaldskalle/]The New York Times last week[/url] and put in my two cents regarding the 25 Best Films of the 21st Century (so far). I don’t see “everything” anymore and I haven’t been to Cannes since 2011 still there’s nothing that even a recovering film critic likes better than a list. My single “best” film-object (1) is followed by a list of 11 filmmakers and one academic production company (in order of “best-ness”) responsible for two or more “best films,” (2-28) these followed by another eight individual movies (again in order) (29-37) and finally four more tentatively advanced films (these alphabetical) (38-41). I’m sure I’m forgetting some but that’s the nature of the beast—or best." - J. Hoberman. -
NY Times 25 Best Films of the 21st Century. So Far.
Favs/dislikes: 2:1. We are now approximately one-sixth of the way through the 21st century, and thousands of movies have already been released. Which means that it’s high time for the sorting – and the fighting – to start. As the chief film critics of The Times, we decided to rank, with some help from cinema savants on Facebook, the top 25 movies that are destined to be the classics of the future. While we’re sure almost everyone will agree with our choices, we’re equally sure that those of you who don’t will let us know. Compiled by A.O. Scott & Manohla Dargis. -
Taste of Cinema: 20 Canadian Cult Films You Might Not Have Seen
Favs/dislikes: 3:1. Canuxploitation is the primary keyword when talking about Canadian Cult films, and much like any other exploitation genre, Canuxploitation covers all sorts of different genres. Canada has definitely produced some rather strange cult movies, whether they’re films from body horror master David Cronenberg or bizarre kids films, Canada surely has something for every cult movie fan. So here are 20 Canadian Cult movies that are worth checking out. (Keep in mind that movies like Black Christmas, Porky’s, Scanners, and My Bloody Valentine are not going to be on this list due to their massive popularity) -
Josef von Sternberg filmography (surviving films)
Favs/dislikes: 4:1. The surviving feature films of director Josef von Sternberg. Unfortunately a number of films he directed have been lost: The Exquisite Sinner (1926), A Woman of the Sea (1926), The Dragnet (1928) and The Case of Lena Smith (1929). 1-20 are the films von Sternberg directed alone and for which he received credit. 21-29 are films which either ended unfinished or for which he did not receive directing credits. -

BFI: A great horror film from every year, from 1922 to now (2022)
Favs/dislikes: 6:0. A century of malevolent masterpieces. One film per year. 28 October 2022 By Anton Bitel, Michael Blyth, Anna Bogutskaya, Katherine McLaughlin, Kelly Robinson, Matthew Thrift, Kelli Weston, Samuel Wigley Horror cinema didn’t begin in 1922. There were ghosts in the machine as early as 1896, when the medium’s early magus, Georges Méliès, packed a giant bat, the Devil, various phantoms and a final vanquishing by crucifix into a spooky three minutes. Adaptations of gothic classics, such as Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, Robert Louis Stevenson’s The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde and the short stories of Edgar Allan Poe, were already fixtures on the screen by the 1910s – and by 1920 the feature-length horror film wasn’t a scary kid anymore. Alongside a polished Hollywood version of Jekyll and Hyde, those German expressionist lodestones The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari and The Golem marked the macabre coming of age of a genre that wanted to frighten, disgust and haunt us. But as In Dreams Are Monsters, our autumn celebration of horror, takes place in the centenary year of both F.W. Murnau’s unofficial Dracula adaptation Nosferatu and Benjamin Christensen’s witchy pseudo-documentary Häxan, 1922 seemed the ideal place to begin our year-by-year rundown of frighteners. Why year by year? Because it’s a better way to plumb the dark corners of horror’s cinematic history than a straightforward top 100. Selecting just one film per year leaves you with some nightmarish decisions for vintage years like 1960 – Psycho, Peeping Tom, Eyes Without a Face or Black Sunday? – and 1973, when December alone saw the release of The Exorcist and a double bill (!) of Don’t Look Now and The Wicker Man. And who really, for 1954, wants to pit Godzilla against the Creature from the Black Lagoon? Yet by travelling through the history of horror a year at a time, we can get a sense of the evolution of the genre – the strange, contorting, lycanthropic process by which we arrive at the fertile market we’re living in today. Bad moons rise, and purple patches come and go: the arrival of Universal’s gothic monster cycle and Hammer; the birth of the modern zombie movie and the slasher; the shots in the arm of J-horror and – though let’s not call them that – the ‘elevated horrors’ of the 2010s. But the journey also takes us through some barren terrain when either censorship took the fun out of the genre (the late 1930s) or audiences simply seemed to lose their thirst for it (the late 1940s and early 1950s). Even on these wind-blasted heaths, however, gems are to be found. Before we get started, an arbitrary ground rule: we’ve omitted any horror films appearing on the IMDb top 250 list on the grounds of over-familiarity. So no Psycho, The Exorcist, Jaws (1975), Alien (1979), The Shining (1980), The Thing (1982) or The Silence of the Lambs (1991). The internet already knows and loves these films. We do too. But in picking over the carcass of a century of terror, we just wanted to keep things fresh. – Samuel Wigley -

Favs/dislikes: 8:1. These are the movies that the third Edition (2008) of Gyldendal's Guide to Danish Movies ("Gyldendals danske filmguide") rated 3, 3 1/2 or 4 stars. 4 stars means "masterpiece" and are listed in spots 1-4 (yes, Denmark has apparently only produced 4 "masterpieces"). 3 stars means "unusually good" and are listed in spots 24-99. 3 1/2 stars presumably means somewhere in between "unusually good" and "masterpiece". Those are listed in spots 5-23. -
