Here's mine with my reasons:

1. Zulu (Brits at their best)
2. Once Upon a Time in the West (Best Spaghetti western ever)
3. It’s a Wonderful Life (cheesy, but it still makes us cry)
4. Unforgiven (Probably how it was in the West)
5. No Country for Old Men (Brutal)
6. Monsters Inc (Funny if your 5 or 50 years of age)
7. LA Confidential (Cadillac’s, Hollywood and such a great cast)
8. Bullet (McQueen at his best and just edges The Getaway)
9. A.I. (So sad)
10. Casino Royal (Reinvented Bond)

Erm, Nadir, EVERY movie on your list is based around Christian characters (mostly Roman Catholic) and yet on other threads here you vehemently condemn and try to belittle anything/ anyone who is not sympathetic to your islamic (befuddled) viewpoint.

Please explain.

It may be easy. Perhaps there's never been a muslim film maker good enough nor a worthy islamic actor (since Omar Sharif).. to consider a placing in your top 10.
Therefore, you're an abject hypocrite sir.

Can we please have a thread on PH that doesn't derail into a religious debate?

Since when does religion have anything to do with watching movies? Remind me on how having an Islamic viewpoint makes one a hypocrite due to watching movies based around Christian characters? On another thread (which you've probably read), someone mentioned, due to my religious views, that it is ironic that I like British made metal before the 80's, and now, yet again, I'm apparently a hypocrite for enjoying movies based around Christian characters? Give me a break!

I'm fully aware that the majority of PH are Atheists, yet the majority of the replies to this thread contain similar movies (if not the same) as the ones I've listed. Would that make them a hypocrite in watching movies based around Christian characters? Even though religious people won't be sympathetic to their Atheist viewpoint?
