#2 on the list...ha ha.

I was just thinking 72. "The Shawshank Redemption," 1994. - see it IS a good movie. ;)

Here are my boring comments on the additions.

Four films released between 1997-2006 were added:
50. The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (2001) - UMmmmm, ok. Not a HUGE fan, but I can see why.
71. Saving Private Ryan (1998) I never saw it because I don't think I can stomach it.
83. Titanic (1997) You've got to frilling kidding me!
89. The Sixth Sense (1999) I knew the spoiler about 15 minutes into the film so I didn't enjoy it all that much.

Nineteen films made between 1916-1995 were also added:
18. The General (1927) Haven't seen it
49. Intolerance (1916) Classic fil, but I haven't seen it id decades.
59. Nashville (1975) Something I also have seen in decades.
61. Sullivan's Travels (1941) YEAH BABY!!!!!!!!
63. Cabaret (1972) AGAIN YEAH!
67. Who's Afraid Of Virginia Woolf? (1966) TRIPLE YEAH!
72. The Shawshank Redemption (1994) Who's got the erasure?
75. In The Heat Of The Night (1967) I forgot this film existed. It might deserve another veiwing.
77. All The President's Men (1976) Decades comment applies
81. Spartacus (1960) Cool!
82. Sunrise (1927) No knowledge whatsoever.
85. A Night At The Opera (1935)
87. 12 Angry Men (1957) YES!
90. Swing Time (1936) I remember loving this one.
91. Sophie's Choice (1982) I LOVE this film!
95. The Last Picture Show (1971) I missed it at the Cemetery and it has been ages since I've seen it.
96. Do The Right Thing (1989) Never been a Spike Lee fan
97. Blade Runner (1982) I LOVE Blade runner. Love it!
99. Toy Story (1995) There are better Pixar.

Any revision that drops Fantasia and Close Encounters from the running is totally effed up (imo)


Also imo, Toy Story is infinitely better than its completely sequelish sequel.

Hmmm, I have seen most of them, also disagree quite a bit with Alex, and am tempted to do a counterpoint-by-point ... but what's the point?

Blazzing Sadles is the Citizen Kane of Comedy - It is surely missed.

None, as I wasn't try to give any objective absolute opinion. Just mine.

I wouldn't mind, though, seeing your opinions. They need not be in the context of responding to mine.

I'm happy about Cabaret.
I still like Bladerunner, though it's suffered overtime so I'm not sure it's Listworthy.
Titanic still baffles me as to why it makes these lists.
Sad to see Third Man and Rebel without a Cause get bumped

I think the list is very heavy on "cultural impact" - and I've no problem with that, since this list is simply a popularity contest and not a good measure of "good."

To me, that explains why Snow White is there, when so many Disneys are better ... and why Toy Story is there when so many Pixars are better.

Titanic is there for this reason, as is The Sixth Sense. Say what you will about their quality, they were public phenomena in their time that spilled out of the movie house.

I'm baffled about some of the additions, and moreso about the deletions. I think I'm much more in agreement with the previous list.

Perhaps I'll go thru a point-by-point of the changes, if I get a chance.

I'd allow it on my list for that reason, but I'd barely let it squeak in at 100th.

Yeah how many of these films would you be willing to see more than once?
