The Tree of Life was already in their 250 at #102 so it will probably move up:

Several of the other movies you listed were already in the 250.

Contempt only shifted a few positions between the 2002 and the 2012 lists so while I am not a fan of that movie I doubt if it will drop more than twenty places.

In the 2012 update only a dozen or so post 2002 or later movies were added to the 250:

The highest ranked new addition to the 250 will probably be Parasite which will definitely make the top 100. I think other movies from the last decade that also will make the 250 are Ida, Shoplifters, 12 Years A Slave, Moonlight, and Shoplifters. I assume at least one Korean film will make the list and I wish it was Poetry but The Handmaiden or Burning seem more likely.

I really hope some of the movies near the bottom of the 250 move up but they probably will drop out. Two movies in the 18 way tie for 235 that I hope move up are The Double Life of Veronique and The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari.
