Exactly 10 inducted. Kingdom of Heaven inducted specifically as the Director's Cut. The 1984 Apple Super Bowl ad was joked about as a possible extra ('Plus one ad'), plus a joke about an episode of 'Numbers' — these are gags, not real inductions. Yellows that missed: White Squall, Matchstick Men, The Last Duel, Napoleon (2023). Napoleon debated against American Gangster for the final slot; American Gangster won.
