I have insomnia
So I decided to do something fun and post a random survey thing in my journal. Below is a list of IMDB's top 100 films. I actually ganked this from some random journal, but you can find it in its unmodified form at ObeyTheFist.com. Also, this is not the AFI, but the IMDB, so remember most popular doesn't always mean best. For instant, Toy Story 2 is at #96, and the three LOTR films ranked above Citizen Kane, Star Wars, and Schindler's List. I've put an lj-cut after the first 20 to avoid blowing up my f-list.
