I would like to own apocolypse now and clockwork orange though.

Horrible list. These kind of lists are always biased towards older movies even if they weren't that great.

60. Not a bad list -- it's pretty rare to come up with a 'best-of' list that I agree with enough to own nearly half of the titles.

This may be out of the scope of the thread, but could you give some examples. There were titles there that I didn't love enough to own, but I didn't see many that seemed radically out of place.
