Gojira made the list, but Akira, Spirited Away, Grave of the Fireflies, and Seven Samurai didn't. There's something seriously wrong with that.

Excludes animation. Seven Samurai didnt get on because I chose Ikiru above it which was a close call. Max one per director y'see. Otherwise this would have been 10 films by Ozu, Mizoguchi and Kurosawa.
