Let's play a round of "Steven Spielberg" elimination


So here's how this game will work. Each feature length theatrical movie he's directed will start out with 10 out of 10. Put a +1 next to your favorite movie of his, and put a -1 next to your least favorite movie of his. If a movie reaches 0 it gets ELIMINATED! and cannot be voted back in.

The last movie standing will be his greatest masterpiece!

Only rules are the ones established above, documentaries won't be included, Firelight won't be included because it's a lost film, and the Twilight Zone: The Movie won't be included because it had three other directors.

I'll start.
