Lacking — 3 years ago

Too much Cary Grant and Woody Allen, no Adam Sandler or Jim Carrey… you might not like Sandler but to not give either one of them a single nod on this list??

Topper correction — 4 years ago

Replaced #60, “Topper/Topper Returns” with “Topper.” Topper Returns was not on the AFI list.

Sherlock, Jr. — 4 years ago

Replaced the combo version of Our Hospitality/Sherlock, Jr. with only Sherlock, Jr. to better reflect the original list.
