Yahoo's 100 Movies To See Before You Die

Yahoo has released a list of the 100 Movies To See Before You Die. Fanboys might be angered that The Dark Knight doesn't make the list, but I'm more angry that Star Wars is listed but not The Empire Strikes Back. Yet they included all three Lord of the Rings films as one entry. Other notable omissions include: David Fincher's Fight Club or Se7en, Once Upon a Time in the West, North by Northwest, Taxi Driver, A Clockwork Orange, The Shining, Spirited Away, and Aliens. Like a lot of lists, Yahoo is afraid to praise recent releases. Aside from the Lord of the Rings trilogy, only one movie on the list was released in the last 8 years. Full list, in alphabetical order, after the jump.
