[matt2009]

seen 21 of them be honest i havent heard of most of them

[ckent22]

Don't agree at all. There's dozens of great films that they are leaving off.

[J6P]

Not a bad list at all. I'll take every single one on Blu, please.

[jsteinhauer]

On what do you base your list. There are so many factors that can make a motion picture worthy of inclusion.

It's clearly a biased list, which is fine, since it is your top 100 and not mine, but comedies and actioners are obviously do not strike your fancy.

I'm tipsy now, so I may change my mind, but I'll just might come up with my own top 100.

I agree with you disagree.

[pjasonOH]

I've seen about 28 of them that I can remember.
Once Upon A Time In The West(which is an excellent film),but no Once Upon A Time In America?


Of course like any list,this is somebody's opinion,not necessarily fact.

Very very true, I might have to put a comparison list up from a more (blu-ray.com respected source) in the future to see the different views.

Crazy right!? I wonder how they came up with this list??? I'll look into this

[Rob71]

I've seen 43 on that list. Another 10-15 are on my want to see list, the rest I either haven't heard of or don't know enough about but would check them out given the chance. But there are a lot of great films not on that list.

Seems this list is missing a great deal actually, it was done by two film critics for TIME. On the site a lot of people wrote in wondering where there favorites were. Sounds suspect to me.

[P@t_Mtl]

Seen 39 of them

[rev.and.ride]

I've seen 31 of them. Some of the ones on the list are just unbelievable!

Finding Nemo and not Vertigo? Really?

E.T. and not 2001: A Space Odyssey?

I also see several that I would have dropped in favor of Apocalypse Now.
