Great list man! I have thought about re-doing mine this way too.
I'm surprised "Nightmare before Christmas" isn't on your list!
I like this idea better then the other guys list. Its hard to make a true top 100 list when there are so many different types of movies. I like your list and Im pretty sure I've seen most of these movies.
