Best film of all time

Now this no doubt is a probing question, that potentially can cause arguments on a collosal scale. I mean there probably isn't one greatest film, there are too many categories and styles, from horror to girly soppy drivel to manly action packed mindless violence (yes we love it). I guess if I listed some, I would have to say up there in no particular order would be:
Shawshank Redemption, Crash, Lucky Number Slevin, Usual Suspects....the kind of 'thinking films' then theres comedies, Old School, Waynes World, Airplane, Animal House and finally just classics....Star Wars, Indy, and LOTR must be in there.
Notice how I havent included Harry Potter....for one simple reason- it's a load of shite. As part of our very important recreation time, we all do something similar.....we watch films, entertaining films to say the least, films that let us escape reality and take us to places other than the office etc etc. Let me ask this- what is the most annoying thing in the world? Well up there has to be reverse parking female drivers, politicians who never answer questions, people who mix liqorice with normal pic 'n' mix to contaminate every other sweet making them taste disgusting....and smug little English kids pretending they can act.
Why would you ever pay money to watch a little punk kid who sits on a broom, has an ugly ginger mate (and jailbate one too)and who continuously casts magical spells in order to appear entertaining? I mean JK Rowling must have been laughing when she came up with the idea.....but she knew she was on for a winner....lets come up with the most basic, boring idea for a story ever and make so many books and films, abusing the minds of simpletons who can't watch films like Star Wars because they appear 'complicated'.
One things for sure, I am definitely a Lord of the Rings fan....LOTR vs Harry...erm it's like Brazil vs England, there is only one winner....So in case you were wondering, no I won't be watching/reading...in fact doing anything related to Harry friggin Potter, who knows what the next few installments of this tedious series will be....'Harry Potter and his first shave'.....'Harry Potter and the imposing prison sentence'.....'Harry Potter and the order of his 5 children'.....'Harry Potter and the deathly disease picked up after one careless night'...'Harry Potter and the chamber..of the gun he shot his stupid ginger mate with'....this is like a Bond franchise gone horribly, horribly wrong. But to prove my allegiance is not biased here is a video I'm sure we've all seen but does put a smile on my face....
