This is fun because I can almost always rely on

damiel and

gnimmel to identify odd cultish films and

c_mantix and

globetrotter1 to spot the mandatory Canuckistani flick. Plus, of course, much general cinematic erudition from all sides.

Naturally I think all these movies are worth seeing and could maker a case for all but Marquis and Meet the Feebles being genuine classics. Those two however are a bit different. Lord of the Rings fans will want to see Meet the Feebles because it was directed by Peter Jackson. It's much better than Lord of the Rings because it wasn't shot in the pitch dark and only the rabbit has pointy ears. Marquis is very weird but definitely worth a look.

Now, additional clues for the three remaining flicks.

7. Is a very long, star studded, over worthy and rather dull WW2 flick.

9. Is a less well known but much better WW2 flick.

10. has a star studded cast and an A-list director but still manages to be thoroughly unsatisfying.
