1. The Magnificent Seven. Kurosawa is just a copycat.

10. Just to pick one I picked Dersu Uzala, however
I love pretty much all of his films. They are all so great it's tough to pick.

12. Is it even possible to make a wrong choice here?
Seven Samurai for me, but really, we are all winners in this poll. :D

14. I had to go with Rashomon
It was the first Kurosawa movie I saw and it really blew me away.

Probably in my top 5 all time movies too. Perfectly balanced, perfectly acted with a compelling and fascinating plot. And that last sequence in the juke joint and the shooting gallery still gives me shivers when I see it.

Yume/Dreams would be my choice, mostly because it was the first Kurosawa film that I saw, and even though its been years now and I can still conjur up some of the imagery. That was a gorgeous film. But since there's no "other" slot (;)) I voted for High and Low ...
