#91: The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance (USA 1962); Dir. John Ford Not bad at all. Robocop and Liberty Valance are also in my top 100. Jackal is very good too, leagues better than its supposed remake. And although Rublev is probably the best Tarkovsky I have seen, it's nowhere near my top 100. Joseba B-Loki wrote: you will notice that a lot of my favorite movies are from the 60s and 70s.

Actually, I wish Joseba would continue with posting them one by one with comments to each film...only doing it a bit faster 
I must say I have never been a big fan of Conan...
I own Close Encounters Of The Third Kind for a long time now, but still haven't seen it... 
Robocop is great...best of your picks so far. _________________The greatest thing on earth is to love and to be loved in return!

And great batch...haven't seen Z or Andrei Rublev, but rest are pretty great. Sweet Irma was one of my favorite movies as a kid.

I've been tuning my list for the last week now and Im suprised how many favorites of mine couldnt make it onto the list. 100 is just too dam small in my opinion. And I agree, pretty much 100-20 is pretty much unrankable, its just kind of where I remember films along the way and can switch a few films I know I like more.

1941, now that's Spielbergs most underrated movie. :-p I think it's underrated in the sense that it's mostly forgotten in the shuffle of his other great films. If you ask a regular film fan to name their five favorite Spielberg films, I guarantee that most don't have it on their list.
As for 1941, I love the film, but I can't help but feeling that's one film Spielberg ignores on his imaginary resume. _________________My DVD Collection

Robocop is a solid idea, like Highlander that was never fully appreciated. For that it gets good points for me, but I still think its pretty solid.

Some good choices there, definitely less of a mainstream list here, but some pretty good movies here, I like them, but Im not sure I could call them favorites.
I think there are plenty of films that may be better films than the ones on my list, so I give you respect for having much more mature tastes.

Werner Herzog Need to see it again, Kinski is magnificent, but I found the movie so-so.#86: Bringing Up Baby (USA 1938); Dir. Howard Hawks Good classic comedy. I like comedy, but I think no comedy made it in my top 100.#85: Monkey Business (USA 1931); Dir. Norman Z. McLeod See comment for Bringing Up Baby.#84: Il Conformista (Italy 1970); Dir. Bernardo Bertolucci Haven't seen it.  #83: The Night Of The Living Dead (USA 1968); Dir. George Andrew Romero Good one.#82: Les Diaboliques (France 1955); Dir. Henri-Georges Clouzot Great one.#81: Bad Boy Bubby (Australia 1993); Dir. Rolf de Heer Haven't heard about this one._________________
