Airplane to win. It's the only movie left that caters to a wide range of tastes.

Brilliant, one film made in my lifetime that I was too young to remember and the average age of film left is 43 years old🤦🏻‍♂️

Yep, totally skewed towards old people. Ridiculous.

A good movie is a good movie regardless of when it was made.

Yes which is why it's odd that very few films from the last few decades were included.

The original entry included:

Inbetweeners Movie
Paul
Team America World Police
The Hangover Pt II
Alpha Papa
Paddington 2
Stepbrothers
Paddington
American Pie
Meet The Parents

So there was a reasonable number of films from 21st C. None of these are still in it - some missed out cos of the random grouping - but I agree, it's a bit odd. Maybe people always consider their favourite film to always be an oldie (except Constanza's love for Paddington 2), Dunno why.

And the least said about Carry on Screaming the better.

Don't know why you included Paul or the Paddington films. Results just show that it's mostly old men on here. Only a bit of fun anyway.

My 2 suggestions were both made when I was about 1. I don't see the relevance of when it was made, in my opinion there has been nothing made that is better than them both before and after.
