Before the rankings, we introduce some "Runner-up" films.
Although they didn't quite make the top 10, we reveal the "runner-up" works that we just had to mention. Both hosts selected two films each that were too good to leave out. The discussion gets just as heated as the main ranking as they struggle to choose between these equally compelling titles.
We are intrigued by the film the couple described as "War itself."
