Fan Top 101 Movies


[This list was voted on by 969 Internet users and all movies received at least 100 votes with Star Wars getting 850. It ignores the movies that the AFI put on its list for being milestone films such as the Jazz Singer (first sound movie) or Gold Rush (a Chaplin silent pic). While it ignores those that might have been firsts way back when, it does a good job of picking entertaining movies of many generations. And while I may disagree with the order and some of the selections, the same can be said about the AFI list (I mean, come on. Schindler's List at number NINE of ALL-TIME? As Nell Carter would say, Gimme A Break.) Give these flicks a look for their high entertainment value, not their historical value.]
