My opinions

1. "Citizen Kane," 1941. - Well qualified for this spot.
2. "The Godfather," 1972. - Well qualified for this spot.
3. "Casablanca," 1942. - Well qualified for this spot.
4. "Raging Bull," 1980. - Way overrated, I probably wouldn't put it on the list at all.
5. "Singin' in the Rain," 1952. - Way overrated but near the top of musicals.
6. "Gone With the Wind," 1939. - Way overrated. I simply don't care for this movie.
7. "Lawrence of Arabia," 1962. - Move it up.
8. "Schindler's List," 1993. - Never seen it.
9. "Vertigo," 1958. - Not my favorite Hitchcock, I'd put a different movie this high up for him.
10. "The Wizard of Oz," 1939. - Belongs on the list somewhere.
11. "City Lights," 1931. - Eh.
12. "The Searchers," 1956. - Super way overrated. Shouldn't be on list.
13. "Star Wars," 1977. - Super way overrated, should be on list because of its cultural impact but not this high.
14. "Psycho," 1960. - Better candidate for the top Hitchcock spot.
15. "2001: A Space Odyssey," 1968. - Ok.
16. "Sunset Blvd.", 1950. - Ok.
17. "The Graduate," 1967. - Eh, move it down a couple dozen.
18. "The General," 1927. - Ok.
19. "On the Waterfront," 1954. - Move it up.
20. "It's a Wonderful Life," 1946. - Take it off the list. There is much good Capra, but for me this isn't.
21. "Chinatown," 1974. - Move it up.
22. "Some Like It Hot," 1959. Ok, not my cup of tea but I understand why it is loved.
23. "The Grapes of Wrath," 1940. - Only seen have and it was great. So ok.
24. "E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial," 1982. - Best movie ever when I was eight. I was stupid when I was eight. If Spielberg doesn't respect the movie enough to leave it alone then I don't respect it enough to want it on the list.
25. "To Kill a Mockingbird," 1962. - Never seen it.
26. "Mr. Smith Goes to Washington," 1939. - Much better Capra than IaWL

33. "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest," 1975. - Ok
34. "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs," 1937. - Off the list. Not even among the top ten Disney animated movies, unless you're just looking at cultural and industry impact
35. "Annie Hall," 1977. - Ok
36. "The Bridge on the River Kwai," 1957. - Move it up. Put it right after Lawrence and give David Lean the listual blowjob he deserves.
37. "The Best Years of Our Lives," 1946. - Are you kidding me?
38. "The Treasure of the Sierra Madre," 1948. - Ok.
39. "Dr. Strangelove," 1964. - Move it up.
40. "The Sound of Music," 1965. - Ok.

46. "It Happened One Night," 1934. - Higher please.
47. "A Streetcar Named Desire," 1951. - Higher please.
48. "Rear Window," 1954. - Another much better candidate for Hitchcock.
49. "Intolerance," 1916. - Never seen it.
50. "The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring," 2001. - Off the list.
51. "West Side Story," 1961. - Ok.
52. "Taxi Driver," 1976. - Ok, I'd be fine with switching this and Raging Bull.
53. "The Deer Hunter," 1978. - Off the list just because of the horrible nine-hour realtime recreation of Polish wedding.
54. "M-A-S-H," 1970. - Ok
55. "North by Northwest," 1959. - Ok
56. "Jaws," 1975. - Ok
57. "Rocky," 1976. - Ok
58. "The Gold Rush," 1925. - Never seen it.
59. "Nashville," 1975. - Oh god no. Off the list, find another Altman.
60. "Duck Soup," 1933. - Ok.
61. "Sullivan's Travels," 1941. - Way higher please.
62. "American Graffiti," 1973. - I'm more ok with this than Star Wars but I would be ok with pretending Lucas had never made any movies.
63. "Cabaret," 1972. - Never seen it.
64. "Network," 1976. - Higher please.
65. "The African Queen," 1951. - Ok
66. "Raiders of the Lost Ark," 1981. - Ok.

69. "Tootsie," 1982. - Ok
70. "A Clockwork Orange," 1971. - Ok
71. "Saving Private Ryan," 1998. - Not just not a good movie, it is a bad movie with compelling imagery. Remove it from the list then burn the prints.
72. "The Shawshank Redemption," 1994. - Way, way, way fricking higher. I believe CP would like this to be in the #2 spot.
73. "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid," 1969. - Ok.
74. "The Silence of the Lambs," 1991. - Ok, but I don't think the movie has aged well.
75. "In the Heat of the Night," 1967. - Higher.
76. "Forrest Gump," 1994. - See Saving Private Ryan
77. "All the President's Men," 1976. - Ok
78. "Modern Times," 1936. - Ok
79. "The Wild Bunch," 1969. - Higher please, should be above Unforgiven

89. "The Sixth Sense," 1999. - Ok
90. "Swing Time," 1936. - Ok
91. "Sophie's Choice," 1982. - Off the list. I actually sent this back to Netflix after watching 30 minutes.
92. "Goodfellas," 1990. - Way higher.
93. "The French Connection," 1971. - Ok
94. "Pulp Fiction," 1994. - Ok, but mostly because of cultural impact
95. "The Last Picture Show," 1971. - Should be in the middle of the list, too bad Bodganovich faded.
96. "Do the Right Thing," 1989. - Ok
97. "Blade Runner," 1982. - Off the list. Not a good movie made worse by being supplanted by an excrutiating director's cut.
98. "Yankee Doodle Dandy," 1942. - Ok
99. "Toy Story," 1995. - Fun movie but no.
100. "Ben-Hur," 1959. - Ok.
