The MovieGoer:

BSR writes about all things film.

The American Film Institue has released its "100 Greatest Films of All Time" 10th Anniversary list. You will not some changes, althought "Citizen Kane" remains in the top spot. I am bit surprised that "The Graduate" and "On the Waterfront" tumbled out of the Top 10. The fact that "The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring," "The Sixth Sense," "Titanic," and "Toy Story" all made the list is appalling, but "Dances with Wolves" got the boot, and that's a very good thing. "Doctor Zhivago," "Close Encounters of the Third Kind," "Amadaeus," and "The Jazz Singer," also fell out of the Top 100

Wait, what? Uhhhh, see this is what I hate about these lists, like in a year or so, Amadeus and Close Encounters suddenly became less worthy than Toy Story and Ti-fing-tanic? That's rich. I swear that's ridiculous and shows that apparently making box office and dvd sales is more important that quality to these listers, I put DWWolves on there before Titanic and LOTR. LOTR is a good trilogy, but some of it's a little heavy handed and slices the books up too much, I don't really think it's in the top 25 movies of all time....really? uhhhhh

On the evening of July 20, a concerned aunt drove her 26-month-old nephew to a Department of Human Services office in Little Rock to show caseworkers the bruises on his buttocks and back. The child had been spending the night at his aunt's when she changed his diaper and discovered the marks. /more/
