Ha, nothing wrong with those movies (I mean, personally I never liked Jurassic Park so I'll give you that and I never seen Barry Lyndon, but it is Kubrick so it gotta be worth at least half of something right off the bat), if nothing else they are all staples of their genres I do agree with you though, Boogie Nights should be up there, and if I looked over the list I'm sure I could find at least 100 movies on there far less worthy.
If it's any consolation it's on the "They-Call-Me-Steve top 250" list, probably even top 20. -

I think these movies really shouldn't be in the Top 250:
Lord of the Rings
The Intouchables
Gladiator
Guardians of the Galaxy
Wall-E
Aliens
Snatch
L.A. Confidential
Django Unchained
Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels
X-Men: Days of Future Past
The Avengers
A Beautiful Mind
The King's Speech
Monsters Inc. -

I recently watched LA confidential again..and at the time it was an amazing movie..ground breaking action scenes..good plot. After seeing it NOW though, i didnt think it stood the test of time. Thats kind of a true marker of a classic. Boogie Nights Fits the bill. Its Timeless..even now its good.
I completely agree. -

I agree with some of these. Disagrees with others. Like Aliens for example, are you serious? That is like the magnum opus of Sci-Fi Action Thrillers. Far better than Alien which feels a bit outdated, but is still good.

Return of the Jedi is a great movie? Really? Star Wars with muppets? The only saving grace in that film is the Emperor. Without him, that movie is nothing.
Also, saying Barry Lyndon is a better movie than Boogie Nights is really a matter of opinion. It's like comparing apples and oranges. I for one would rather watch Boogie Nights any day as I barely was able to make it through one sitting of the excruciatingly slow Barry Lyndon. -

Well, yes. As is everything else we're discussing on here (including your comments about Return of the Jedi). That goes without saying! -

Boogie Nights belongs in the top 10, granted, but your list of supposed atrocities could be improved. Listing Barry Lyndon in particular equates to a red herring. Toy Story and Jurassic Park are also very worthy.
