I don't have a funny description.
One of my favorite movies is "Leaving Las Vegas" with Nicholas Cage and Elisabeth Shue.
For me + my wife, it has to be The Princess Bride. As you wish...

I'm no movie critic, but I've enjoyed John Wick movies more than once.
Why isn't The House Bunny there?
I've got to agree that I'd rate Citizen Kane and Ben Hur as about equal. Citizen Kane was a good movie, not a great one in my opinion. I couldn't watch Casablanca. I just wasn't interested in it. Singing in the Rain is probably my wife's favorite movie. 2001 A Space Odyssey is another that I turned off because I just couldn't get into it.
Why isn't Arsenic and Old Lace not on the list????
The older list is better than the newer one. Hollywood is full of idiots.

Tossup between Big Chill, Bull Durham, and Open Range. Silverado is up there, too.
He's been in so many good movies. I looked up his filmography after reading your post, and forgot how many good ones he's been in.

Uhhh Wyatt Earp??
Sorry, but I thought he sucked in that one, especially compared to Kurt Russell in Tombstone.
Wyatt Earp is one of his roles that I thought he basically channeled his character in Bull Durham; great character for BD, but way bad for Earp.
A number of years ago I made my way through the Top 100 list. It was an enjoyable undertaking, for the most part.

I suppose I can live with that.

B&B membership has its percs
In the same vein I once set out to watch all the Best Pictures winners - starting with Wings then moved into the talkies. More of a historical journey really .. you could get an idea of the changing tastes of the movie-going public & Hollywood as you worked through them. There was one that I couldn't find in any of our local library network of 60 odd, that I found floating in flea bay - How Green Was My Valley that won in 1941 beating out the aforementioned Citizen Kane AND The Maltese Falcon!
There really is no accounting for taste I guess ..I had seen a number of them previously, but lost interest somewhere around 2010. These days I may watch an old favorite on a couple occasions through the year but the interest in films hasn't returned .. This year I re-watched Casablanca, Yankee Doodle Dandy (July 4th), and I think The Deer Hunter was the most recent thing watched

I watched All The Presidents Men monday night. It’s #77. I decided to jump around. I rather enjoy the journalistic thriller movies.
That is the single greatest slam of all time. Nothing even comes close. Absolutely Brilliant.
The Untouchables will always be my favorite of his, and a very underrated and under the radar movie is No Way Out with Gene Hackman and Shaun Young.
No Way Out is great!
The RollingStone‘s top 100 is more geared towards me.
Checked out that list and there are some great ones there that don't normally make the Sight and Sound.
