Yeah, the 10-movie limit is arbitrary...but it was put there to make you really think. If I left it open, people would just post every movie that put a smile to their face, and that would just get really annoying .

And Art's trilogy rule is good too, because the movies in a trilogy are not uniformly good. It's a crime to say that "Godfather III" was good merely by its association with "Godfather I and II". Or that "Jaws 2" and "Jaws 3-D" were actually movies. And so forth.
