I think where people get mixed up is whether this list represents "best" or "favorite". There is a large difference. Personally, I think Raging Bull is the best movie Ive ever seen in terms of it's technical, artistic, and cinematic achievements. But it's not my favorite movie. There is where movies like Master and Commander come in. Is it anywhere near Raging Bull in it's achievements? No. But my love of the time period and the excellent music make it a personal favorite.

I guess this list represents favorite which is why a movie like Clerks can be 50 or so above a movie like Raging Bull.
 
That picture from Seven Samurai is awesome. Did you just find that using google?

I don't know how Die Hard snuck in there, especially at such a relatively low position. It's a great movie but I would never put it anywhere near a "Top 100 Movies list". Guess that's just my opinion though.

This list is turning out great, truely quality movies.

"FREEEEEDOOOOOOOOOMMMMMM!"

15) Braveheart (Mel Gibson, 1995)

"Gentlemen, you can't fight in here! This is the War Room."

14) Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb (Stanley Kubrick, 1964)

"It's a hell of a thing, killin' a man. Take away all he's got, and all he's ever gonna have."

13) Unforgiven (Clint Eastwood, 1992)

"There was me, that is Alex, and my three droogs, that is Pete, Georgie, and Dim, and we sat in the Korova Milkbar trying to make up our rassoodocks what to do with the evening. The Korova milkbar sold milk-plus, milk plus vellocet or synthemesc or drencrom, which is what we were drinking. This would sharpen you up and make you ready for a bit of the old ultra-violence."

12) A Clockwork Orange (Stanley Kubrick, 1971)

"Here's lookin at you, kid."

11) Casablanca (Michael Curtiz, 1942)
 
Apocalypse Now, one of my favourite films of all time, but I believe my friend who has fallen asleep and never seen the end of it several times. It's hypnotic, and quite surreal towards the end, trippy even, just such an amazing film.
 
There's 12 Angry Men. I was hoping for an even higher ranking, but making the Top 30, I really can't complain. Very nice!
 
I think Brave New World is very relevant today, you only have to look around at the over-sexed, over-stimulated, mass produced world we are now living in and see how Huxley was on to something back then.
 
Hmm watching a person's top 100? Sounds like a good idea. Wonder where a came up with that
 
This is very exciting ! Should be a bunch of films to add to my queue after this is done.
