AFI's 100 Years, 100 Movies

I want to compare a little bit with the TIME list, and see which of THIS list I have seen- AFI's list does seem to include more popular films. Anyway, they also replaced 23 of the films in 2007 with some old, some newer films. So, this list will include those that were deleted in 2007 as well, and be a bit long. ! following the date means that I have seen the film. I will make notes on those I have seen at some point.
