WTF, NATIONAL FILM REGISTRY?

Below is the list of this year's films added to the National Film Registry.  I'm also kind of surprised they haven't added certain flicks like Silence of the Lambs, but - hey! - who knows?  This year's additions:

"Bullitt" (1968)
"Close Encounters of the Third Kind" (1977)
"Dance, Girl, Dance" (1940)

"Days of Heaven" (1978)
"Glimpse of the Garden" (1957)
"Grand Hotel" (1932)
"The House I Live In" (1945)
"In a Lonely Place" (1950)
"The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance" (1962)
"Mighty Like a Moose" (1926)
"The Naked City" (1948)
"Now, Voyager" (1942)
"Oklahoma!" (1955)
"Our Day" (1938)
"Peege" (1972)
"The Sex Life of the Polyp" (1928)

Okay, people.  This elongating of silent vowels needs to stop.

Also, seconded on Oklahoma!  And I have no problem with old Hollywood musicals.

Paul W. S. Anderson has a lifetime ban from the National Film Registry because he was caught betting on Soldier boxoffice numbers.

I love how the long forgotten Empire of the Sun has somehow resurfaced due to internet fans obsession with Christian Bale.  The movie really deserved to be rediscovered.

You've never seen 12 Angry Men? They played that movie at our middle and high school English classes a lot, and we read the play in class.

I can read a list of 25 films. No, I have not seen it. Nor have I read the play.

I'm glad that Steve McQueen's finest hour is getting some love around here.  :-*
