James Dean — 49 weeks ago

I agree about James Dean, absolutely ridiculous to remove Rebel Without a Cause.


Sad — 2 years ago

No James Dean? NO JAMESDEAN?!?!?! Seriously, what’s up with that? Last time, he had two movies on the list (Rebel Without a Cause and Giant) and another nominated (East of Eden, his best film). This time, the two that were on fell off, and East of Eden wasn’t even nominated. Just disgraceful.


Untitled — 4 years ago

Amadeus should not have been taken off.


New list — 4 years ago

I’m glad they brought in Buster Keaton this time around, as well as another Marx Brothers.

Really lamenting the loss of The Third Man, though


Thoughts on the new list — 4 years ago

Slightly better than the first one, I think, though still lacking in independant film and weak on silent films. I like the addition of the General, Sunrise, Intolerance, Do the Right Thing and Blade Runner. However, adding Titanic, LOTR and Toy Story is insulting.
