RE: AFI Top 100 List redux (some others for consideration here)

As always, discard the ones I don't care for (lotsa those)& replace with:

California Split (just may be Altman's best)
All That Jazz
Trash (Warhol/Morrissey)
(Flesh is good too, and Lonesome Cowboys is a hoot at times)

Barry Lyndon
The Hustler
Cape Fear (the original)
Round Midnight
Brazil (For God's sake NOT the altered version)
Casino
King of Comedy (I'm always going up & down in my opinions of Scorcese's stuff; I'm amazed Raging Bull got such a high AFI score now, but at one time I thought it was clearly his best... clearly too bad about his recent output though...)

Spinal Tap (speaking of comedy....)
The original Murder, My Sweet with Dick Powell AND the Farewell My Lovely w/Mitchum

Jackie Brown (VERY underrated in my opinion)
Koyaanisqatsi (very American)

Just a few off the top of my head. Any comments anybody?

(I guess documentaries are out but The Fog of War's a must-see...)
