Ahahaha. A superiority complex doesn't make you superior, it just means you think you are. It the arrogance with which you assumed that we would actually be interested in minuscule details about yourself that made me laugh.

I'm bored, so I might as well.

1. Titanic
2. Mary Poppins
3. Meet Me In St. Louis
4. The Wizard Of oz
5. The Easter Parade
6. Singin' In The Rain
7. White Christmas
8. Follow The Fleet
9. Moulin Rouge
10. Ever After: A Cinderella Story

There are many more, as in anything with Johnny Depp, The Lord Of The Rings movies, and anything directed by Tim Burton (he is my favourite director), but I'll go with the ones I listed because I wouldn't be able to choose just ten out of the latter.

DITTOOO. Except I'd move Beetlejuice up and switch POTC with LOTR and throw MirrorMask in there somewhere.

@Angel, though not directly: A lot of rabid Burton fans don't seem to notice that a lot of the stuff they love wasn't even directed by him; just produced or written.

EDIT: Nevermind, a lot of stuff people view as Tim Burton was directed by him. Only popular example was Nightmare Before Christmas, but a lot of people see that as his pet film.

My personal top 10

1) American Psycho
2) The Shawshank Redemption
3) Chinatown [biased towards Mr. Polanski, but that's my favorite of his]
4) Farenheit 451
5) The Departed
6) Rear Window
7) The Breakfast Club
8) Seven
9) Dogma
10) Trainspotting

The Dark Knight would probably be 11. Or Spinal Tap.

Yes, I'm aware of that. But I fell in love with Edward Scissorhands, actually. And whether it was directed or produced or written by him, I love anything he works on, however indirectly.

The Man Who Would Be King
Nosferatu
Aliens
Tombstone
