111. E.T.
I saw this as a kid and didn't revisit it until a year or two ago. It's really great storytelling. It's hard to say whether it is Spielberg's best overall movie, but it's certainly among the most enjoyable.

Good timing, I just picked up ET at my library...I haven't seen it since it first came out, so I wonder if I will still love it like I did.

I really don't like E.T. I get the appeal but don't find it enjoyable. That's the only one i've disliked so far tho which is pretty great considering we disagree quite a bit.

I liked E.T. a lot when I was a kid, but not quite so much the last time I watched it. Also E.T. looks like a giant turd with eyeballs. He's creepy.

E.T. was a childhood movie for me, as with many others...
I revisited it about 2 years ago and surpringly it held up and then some. It was great, Spielberg at his best. Great pick, raul!

I did a review a couple years ago as well. E.T. holds up amazingly well considering it is children driven. Great storytelling, I love it.

Loved E.T. as a kid and still do to this day.
Both my nieces are scared of ET. Or at least they were; they may not find him scary anymore but still creepy. My sister (who also loves the film) keeps threatening to buy a life-size replica and place him in the hall just to freak them out!
Also E.T. looks like a giant turd with eyeballs. He's creepy.

E.T. is way too low, but at least it's on your list.

110. The Lion King
One of my favorite "classic" Disney's to be sure. Here is what I wrote about it in The Animated Musical Hall of Fame:

The Lion King
My favorite of the Disney Renaissance films. Although I hadn't seen this in quite sometime, it's one of the films I have seen the most in my lifetime probably, with the majority of the viewings coming as a kid. The soundtrack is the best in animated movie history, the characters are likeable and there are some funny parts to me. the animation itself is very well made. I really like the story and the morals that it tries to teach us, like "remembering who you are" and the importance of family. It will be high up on my list certainly, exactly where I'm not sure yet.

I'll just take it you, rauldc14, feel so strongly of E.T. that it landed number one three times.
111. E.T.

care to explain?
It also doesn't help that it has zero nostalgic value for me. I was 13 when it came out and I hated animation at the time.

I'm pretty sure raul knows well why I don't like it, but you must know - it's annoying. The songs are annoying. The characters are annoying. It's also not funny. The animation is gorgeous, I'll give it that, but that's all the praise I can give it.

Are you not impressed by the films score Miss Vicky? I've never really heard of anybody who hated that aspect of the film.

109. L'Avventura
Certainly one of the most mysterious and adventurous films I've seen. I'm particularly interested in the characters of the film and the journey they go through. It should be well noted that the film is beautifully shot and the cinematography is profound for its time. I need to see this again and it could be in better position on my list then.
