6. The Departed
7. Pulp Fiction
8. Good Fellas
9. The Big Lebowski
10. What About Bob/Ferris Beulers Day Off/Throw Momma From the Train. All three I grew up watching with my great grandmother and hold sentimental value
 
Liked because you have two Charlie Kaufman film on your top 10. Haven't seen Thr Jerk though. Great list!
I love Charlie Kaufman! My favorite screenwriter ever!!! And a great director too!

I haven't seen animolisa yet because I want to be able to sit down alone and watch the entire thing without interruption, and that's really hard to do in my house (wife, kids, etc).

The jerk is a Steve Martin movie. I love it but comedy is subjective so your mileage may vary.

To be fair I think its a bit hard to list more recent films that haven't had the time to bed in but equally I think that does kind of show you the way blockbusters are going, basically "good" films with a wider appeal are preferable to films that might be loved by some but hated by others.

I mean if I was listening a top 100/150 films maybe The Dark knight might be in it, maybe the first Guardians of the Galaxy film? I would list Fury Road and Rogue One before anything Marvel though.

There's nothing wrong with the films but i never go expecting greatness. Rogue one was actually pretty good to me. I havent seen the other new star wars movies but i saw that and liked it.
