Why do I have a top 100 movie list? Well, there's a story to that, but I'll leave it for another time. The important thing is that everyone should have their own top 100 movie list.
Whenever this comes up, folks always say the same things - 'I haven't seen 100 movies', and 'I couldn't come up with 100.' Not true, not true for anybody. Just sit down, start a list of your favorite movies, and your list will only keep growing. Before you know it, you'll have 100, and then it's just a matter of putting them in the right order.
Just remember, it's your list. And when folks don't like what's in it, they can write down their own list.
Now, here it is...
