I see a lot of people complaining about Transformers being on the list and I can understand that, not being a big fan of Transformers myself, but I would rather watch that over The Secret Life of Walter Mitty. I just watched it the other day and it is pretty unbearable. I am really surprised anybody voted for it. Maybe Danny Kaye is more popular in the UK or something.
I should add a disclaimer that I am a huge fan of classic films so I have no bias against any film's age.
The magazine itself does not pay that much attention to a certain order - the Empire 500 issue of last year had the films lined up in alphabetical order.
@eachwishresigned - Princess Mononoke is so much magical than Howl's Moving Castle... but Howls's is more recent and the internet was not that well spread back in 1996.
The Transformers movie was awful, and i've seen it :P

This is a pretty solid list for the more "european" moviesUnEnfantPerdu
Having no movies by the great Kenji Mizoguchi is probably the biggest disappointment about this list. Otherwise it could be a lot worse.Dr Pandhattan
"Transformers," "Anchorman,""Dances With Wolves," "Grease" and "The Godfather: Part III" are all above "The Seventh Seal?" Seriously?

"This list is a joke. Transformers is above Battleship Potemkin!!!"Check out what the list is again. I don't find it surprising that Transformers has been seen by more people than BP.

Transformers is listed because of the reader vote, I'm sure (well not really, but I assume it's the reader vote).Igor_Brynner
