After looking at this list for about 1/2 an hour I have to say the following:

On list but in God's name why?

1. "Awful Truth" - Lightweight comedy at best but vastly inferior to "The Philadelphia Story". .

2. "Barry Lyndon" - Not even Kubrick's Best

3. "Charade" - Cheesey Star vehicle that pairs as "wheezing" Cary Grant with a "too young for him Audrey Hepburn in this second rate thriller

4. "Finding Nemo" - Are you friggin kiddin' me???

5. "The Fly" (1986) - Interesting choice but not with only 100 spaces to fill.

6. "E. T". - See finding Nemo. I'd take CE3TK over this schmaltz any day.

7. "Manchurian Candidate" - See "The Fly" above.

8. "Miller's Crossing" - Doesn't belong on the same page.

9. "Drunken Master II" - How you can have Jackie Chan on this list and NOT Bruce Lee is amazing to me.

Left off list and can't believe it!!

1. "Gone with the Wind" - Much as I hate it, it belongs here.

2. "Goodbye Mr. Chips" - Superior drama from the '30's.

3. "Mrs. Miniver" - Shocking lack of WWII Movies on this list.

4. "Best Years of Our Lives" - See above.

5. "Platoon" - Wow, no reason for this one not to be here. No Viet Nam Films made it.

6. "Seven Samurai" - You put Jackie Chan on there but not this?

7. "Red River" - You put "The Searchers" on the list but this film's superior.

8. "Apocaplyse Now" - Has to be here, don't understand this.

9." 2001 a Space Oddessy" - Woot da F**k??!!!! Unbelievable.

10. "Radiers of the Lost Ark" - Dump "E.T" and add this one.

I could go on and on but it's pointless. I can only assume they made this list to piss a lot of people off but this makes little sense. I appreciate the "international" flavor of the list and the long overdue recognition of Indian Cinema but man, to do it justice we'd need 500 slots.
