No. Please don't misunderstand.
All the movies are certainly not pretentious. I said the list is pretentious, overall.
These movies are in my opinion very good:
No country for old men I haven't watched Mad Max: Fury Road I agree Pan's Labyrinth (this movie is good despite being pretentious and very "cultural critic") A great movie indeed. No idea why you need to label movies beyond good and bad. A history of violence I haven't watched. A.I. I agree, I also agree that's better than the list Chris provided. Finding Nemo ofc
Inception was okay, I agree
Inglorious basterds is okay or even good (but the worst Tarantino movie). I haven't watched, but I do feel there is some sort of critical bias towards anything Tarantino shits, I am SUPER glad Kill Bill hasn't made the list.
25th Hour had glimpses of good in it but Spike Lee is clearly among the pretentious directors. I haven't watched.

So you basically just like to lable things beyond good and bad, it's ok, we're good friends after all.

All the movies I metioned have a way higher critics metascore then A.I. If you go by critics metascore A.I. is not even in Spielbergs top 10.
