As listed in Leonard Maltin’s Movie & Video Guide 2000, by Leonard Maltin (list is chronological)
I think this list does a great job picking a diverse list from a wide range of years. Much like the 1001 movies to see before you die, but a little easier to get through without artsy fluff.
Exactly the kind of safe, predictable, unimaginative choices I would expect from Maltin.
The version of Our Hospitality/Sherlock Jr., with a version of only Our Hospitality, in accordance with the list source.
I signed up for Netflix so that I could get hold of all of these. This place is dangerous!
:D
Replaced a few of the Grey-boxed question-marked entries with “better” versions linked to Amazon (more popularly used elsewhere on the site, has a picture).
So if you’ve checked the list before, you may want to re-check Swing Time, The Grapes of Wrath, The Miracle of Morgan’s Creek, and Blow-Up.
Also replaced the Source URL with one that actually lists the 100 movies as in the Maltin Guide.
Having completed this list and the AFI one, I can say this one is superior. Every film here is worth seeing.
I changed entry #5 to point to The Freshman (1925) instead of College (1927) to match to original list.
I changed entry 84 to point to “The Godfather” and added 86 pointing to “The Godfather II” to bring the movie count to 100.
