IMDb's Top 10 Films: Do you agree?

I like your thinking, but production values aren't everything.
Titanic and Avatar also had some pretty high production values... does that make them on par with LotR?

Not at all. I mentioned more than just "production" - you have to have a story and good actors. Titanic rates above Avatar, and Avatar was basically "Dances with Wolves fucks the Smurfs."

Honestly, I've never understood what women see in Ford... he's not even symmetrical. His nose is too large...
Ah, maybe it was the whip, and, when he was Han Solo, he was a good friend with a very furry alien.
A tiny comment on the crystal skull... as far as I'm concerned, just another Indy movie.

Symmetry isn't everything in a man, nor is perfection. Charisma makes up a lot of 'hotness' - otherwise you wouldn't see people drooling over Daniel Craig. Perhaps men are less inclined to recognize this because they - younger men especially - chase an idea of perfection in women that usually leads to too much worry about attaining some impossibly thin, yet hour-glassish figure and little else to call character. I rarely (sometimes, but rarely) hear men talking about how a woman's inner charisma changes the less-than-model-perfect exterior into something highly desirable.

I loved Han Solo because he was a skeptic, and good at what he did - and bore no false modesty on that point - and was more than a touch arrogant. And because, like Leia, I'm rather fond of scoundrels. It wasn't just his smooth skin or muscles or ability with a blaster, but because even as he denied it, when faced with a greater need than his own, he couldn't help giving aid. The scoundrels with the good hearts, they are always the most attractive.
