I use MovieGuide.org a lot to see if a movie will be acceptable for my kids. In general their opinions and mine about a film's appropriateness are pretty much in-line. Anyway, they have started a countdown of their opinion of the top 100 movies of all time. I thought I'd share it here and see what the people here thought of the choices. They've been doing it for two weeks, so far. I'll post each week with their updates.
Week 1 - 100-91:
