Empire Australia's 100

Empire Australia have done their 5-yearly top 100 all time films. These always tend to be dominated by the two trilogies - Rings and Jedi, but hey they're still fun.

I dont agree with much of this top 100, the top 10 is a little obvious and some of the films that missed out should have easily be in there - Raging Bull, The Graduate, Chinatown, Fargo, Easy Rider, Exorcist, Trainspotting hell even Blue Velvet missed out!
