Here it is, the list you've all been waiting for. This is, without a doubt, the most accurate list of the best American movies. I have only included one film per director in order to have an efficient amount of variety.

1. The Tree of Life (Terrence Malick)

2. Taxi Driver (Martin Scorsese)

3. A Woman Under the Influence (John Cassavetes)

4. The Master (Paul Thomas Anderson)

5. Mulholland Drive (David Lynch)

6. A Serious Man (Coen Brothers)

7. Spring Breakers (Harmony Korine)

8. The Immigrant (James Gray)

9. Nashville (Robert Altman)

10. Carol (Todd Haynes)

11. Blackhat (Michael Mann)

12. Before Sunset (Richard Linklater)

13. Manchester by the Sea (Kenneth Lonergan)

Idk about it being subjective "fun", I am dead serious about the list itself I was just trolling you guys in the presentation of it.

It's a list of 15 American movies by different filmmakers that are most inspiring to me at the moment. I really don't understand the notion that there is a definitive list of best films when there's pretty much an endless amount of great films out there, once you reach a certain level of quality, it's all up to the taste and personality of the viewer. A top 15 list should be able to say something about the sensibilities of the person making it instead of being a regurgitation of what general consensus is, that's boring. Just cause everyone knows The Godfather is a masterpiece, doesn't mean it's a film that's in my rotation or that inspires me on a daily basis.

It would be interesting to know which films are head scratchers, I can already point out Spring Breakers and Blackhat; but to me that's just a case of them being too fresh and misunderstood, I think they'll be more widely studied and regarded in a positive way over the years to come. Along with To the Wonder, they are in my opinion, the American movies that are pushing the cinematic form into new territories. Cinema is in an interesting place, I find it fascinating that there are so many films coming out that are barging into my all time list, what a time to be alive

Our time on this planet is ever so brief, yet I have still managed to watch Spring Breakers like 10 times.

he looks like @Papa Andy at like age 60 ish. he's aussie so he's a GOAT, but haven't seen many of his films

that's not autism, it's the lifeless husk of a heartbroken man (cuck ?) formerly known as Dew, who made the mistake of listening to HNDRXX at 1AM while drunk as f---.
