For context, I'm about to turn 49.
I've removed the Star Wars movies from this list because I don't want a hate fest. They exist in a private vault in my mind.
The 100 listed are in no particular order. I used Box Office Mojo, started in 1977, and just went through every year's top movies at the box and wrote down all my favorites. That list got to about 150 and then I had to narrow it down, which was incredibly painful.

Incredibly, I've seen all 100 of the top 100.

1. Big Trouble in Little China
2. Army of Darkness
3. Field of Dreams
4. The Rock
5. Gladiator

30. The Natural
31. Back to the Future

33. Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home
34. Ferris Bueller's Day Off

I've seen 78 of those. Nothing in that top 10 even comes close to how I would rank them.

Much better list than that other one!

While I appreciate the love shown to Jean-Luc Picard, I have to question how all those other Star Treks, while certainly deserving to be on your list, made it but no Wrath of Khan.

79 on your list.
25 on the other

Really enjoyable list of movies. Of the 11 I haven't seen, there's 5-6 I really want to see, just haven't gotten around to it.

92. Quite a few films that would make my own list (some GREAT calls, btw) with a fair amount of notable substitutions. I guess my list would be a healthy mix of yours and AFIs

How the hell is Voyage Home on your list but Wrath of Khan was bumped? Does not compute at all.

I've seen 89 on the list. I'm not sure what that means for me. My top 100 would have a lot of overlap but it would be quite a bit less than 89.

I've seen 90 of these. This is a much better list than the AFI one.

I'm a sentimental sap for movies time travel and visiting Earth from some point in the future. Plus that movie has arguably the best humor of an ST movie.

And I can't get past the plot hole of Khan telling Chekov he never forgets a face, but Chekov wasn't on the show when the Khan episode aired originally.

While this thing was a massive time waster, I would definitely encourage anyone to make their own list. It's a lot of fun.

I've seen way too many movies to make my own list.

If you consider watching any of the Pirates of the Caribbean movies to count towards the list instead of only the first one counting, I've seen 35 (I've seen the last Pirates movie for sure, but I don't remember if I've seen the first one in its entirety, or if I've just seen parts of it). I got 14 or 15 on the other list. The reason I haven't seen that many is because I'm in my early twenties.
