I'd love to see your list.
First of all, it's impossible to make a list of top 10 songs or movies. But if I had to, I would include these.

Cinema Paradiso
Hoosiers
Stripes
Ran
The Deer Hunter
Donnie Darko
Rushmore
Harold and Maude
Adaptation
Hable con ella (Talk to Her)

I would also consider adding American Psycho as a wildcard pick and the Paris Hilton tape for good measure.

So do I. I just had to take some out to add some, but I like most of those movies.

Keep in mind that only Academy nominated flims are top tier.

Hoosiers is great, as are Stripes and Rushmore. I agree though, it's difficult to pare anything down to a Top 10 or even Top 20.

Awful sock puppet - people should apply for a license for these things.

Also, Rudey - although I dig them both, I'd probably put Eternal Sunshine in front of Adaptation, even though it's been labeled 'romantic comedy' . . . while both are brilliantly written, I think I got more out of the actual film.

Adaptation was darker, more twisted, and more witty to me.

Eternal Sunshine was his attempt at appealing to a more commercial audience. It was a good film, but nothing amazing.

I either like movies that are extremely simple and light or brutally dark. My psychiatrist is worried by this.

1) Portrait of Jenny
2) Goodfellas (the only movie that I can watch 24/7 w/o a break)
3) The Color Purple
4) The Usual Suspects
5) The Philadelphia Story
6) Rushmore
7) Like Water for Chocolate
8) Full Metal Jacket
9) The Godfather
10) Westside Story

others: Memento, The Matrix, Sound of Music, Weird Science (hey, I know EVERY line to this movie), These Three, Gods & Monsters, A Bronx Tale (great soundtrack)....the list can go on and on...
