Not sure it makes every list in a more stacked decade like the 70s or 90s, however.
Don't worry, someone will post a list without it :P
No way it makes a Jiggy list
Sorry, but I absolutely love The Dark Knight. Watched it just a few days ago. Amazing flick. :D
Is it top 10 Jiggy material

On a non-horror list, it probably is.

That said, I have a very soft spot for movies that I doubt would appeal to others (romantic comedies, romantic dramas, coming-of-age movies, etc.) so it could feasibly be pushed to an honorable mentions. I sorta doubt it, though.

Working on a non-horror top ten for each decade possible.

Amazing how some well-received flicks I've seen multiple times just end up forgettable to me (example right now being Gangs of New York).

Any decade (but horror), I can do.

Throw horror into the mix, and it's impossible. Sorry. :)

I'm working on a top ten for non-horror, hopefully it'll not take too much longer than need-be.

Sin City - another movie I enjoyed, but I find pretty unmemorable. Might make the honorable mentions category.

The more lists, the better off we all are.

I really liked Election (1999), but have to say, the ending left a bad taste in my mouth. Not sure if it'd be strong enough to make top ten, though, given the competition.

Good Morning, Vietnam (1987) was a pretty solid film, but given the pretty damn good quality of non-horror 80's films, I sorta doubt this would even make the top twenty, yet alone ten.

Head has a plan for these lists so you shouldn't list LOTR as a trilogy

It’s basically one long film. That’s how it plays, that’s how it gets listed. :)

It’s still my favourite F13, and one of my favourite horror films. I genuinely do enjoy it every time I watch it. :)

One thing a list thing like this does is make you realize where your faves are. I have a lot in the 50s that are top 10 all time ones.
