So far I've intentionally avoided it because it sounds pretty crappy.

that being said many are overrated and i just watched em to give em a chance since they were so revered. netflix makes it very easy to go through "great movie" lists.

I would think Sound of Music, Gone with the Wind, and other classics would've made the list.

Check the site and see how this list is created. It's a popularity contest of user votes. Not a critic's list.

yea, my fair lady, fiddler on the roof and others also missing. its a rather shabby list actually. 50 not enough anyways.

lists on the net get kinda skewed anyways. serenity fanatics voted it into the TOP 10 of alll time in yahoo movies. i mean seriously.....
