AFI's 100 Best Movies....

Way skewed to people's opinions from days gone bye. Of the top 20, the average year of the films is 1955. Considering how young and ridiculously new movies were back then, and how much has been learned since then , that seems crazy. Of the top 20, only one film was from the last thirty five years.

Perhaps. Perhaps not.

The first of the AFI 100 Years… series of cinematic milestones, AFI's 100 Years…100 Movies is a list of the 100 best American movies, as determined by the American Film Institute from a poll of more than 1,500 artists and leaders in the film industry who chose from a list of 400 nominated movies.
 
So the top 100 movies from 2007 on back.



Timely.

When the next one comes out in 2017, or whenever, I'm sure there will be some changes. Most that you see here will still be on that list, though. The top 10 or so stayed relatively intact between 1998's voting and 2007's.
 
I think ABM got a little jealous of my TV show thread.

It's OK. We still wub you, ABM!

Jealous? Nada. Actually, I was reading a friend's FB page and he was relating that he decided to put Gone With The Wind in the dvd player to watch with his 5-year-old daughter. She asked question after question before nodding off to sleep holding his hand. I thought it was kind of sappy sweet. Anyhoo, it caused me to see where that movie fell on the all-time list and I found this link. Nothing more than that.
