The Online Film Community's Top 100 Movies Of All Time

When AFI released their list of the Top 100 Movies of All Time, many people were up in arms over the selections. Over 50 members of the Online Film Journalist Community decided to join together and create a list of their own. A list that might better reflect the views of everyone else who didn't agree with the AFI list. Sure, you can't really compare AFI's list with the Film Community's Top 100 because we allowed the inclusion of foreign films.

Many of my movie picks didn't even make it to the list of nominations (which included over 500 films), never mind on the final list you see below. I am rather disappointed that our list isn't that very different than many of the other lists out there (including AFI's). But that is typical of any list created by a committee. I am glad to see that a few of my favorites landed in the top half. Check out the list below, followed by a list of the other people involved in making this thing possible.
