I'll be the first to say it...Vertigo is criminally low.
Agreed. Vertigo is easily the most entertaining of all the Hitchcock films. And LOL at all of the top 99 films being from Hollywood and then Seven Samurai randomly thrown in there at the very end at 100.

It's favorite films, not 100 best films of all time.
Definitely a difference.

Very good list overall but this one doesn't belong in the top 100 much less at #36 above a long list of much better movies IMHO.

There are a few head scratchers on there when you are talking about the Top 100 movies out of the thousands that have been made.

Annie Hall
Beauty on the Beast
These are questionable to be included at all.*
Pulp Fiction is way overrated - but that just may be me because I'm not a huge QT fan.
*i think inclusion of The Lion King is enough representation of that era of Disney animation.

Annie Hall

Annie Hall
Has long been regarded one of the greatest films ever made and is considered to be Woody Allen's masterpiece.

Beauty on the Beast
Before the Academy extended its nominee list from 5 to 10, Beauty and the Beast was the only animated film to ever be nominated for Best Picture. How old are you? Do you even remember the impact this film had on Hollywood and cinema as a whole? It was kind of a big deal upon its release.

Beauty and the Beast was the first animated film to be nominated for Best Picture, it completely turned the Disney formula on its head, and is overall the best and most flawless Disney film. It is a film so good that you can't really go back and look at the old Disney films with princesses and think of them being all that great. It is in my mind perfect and is overall better than the Lion King.
Annie Hall and Avatar I agree don't belong on the list, and certainly not in the Top 20 like Annie Hall was.

It's the clear high point of the Renaissance and while some have come close, like Frozen and Tangled, they still come short. You really can't look at the earlier classics of Disney and not at least think to yourself if the prince who is hardly established as a character could be like Gaston. Frozen at least came back to that and made it great, but I still don't think it's the complete perfect package Beauty and the Beast is.

Braveheart shouldn't even be on the list. It's a good but not great movie. It's also so historically inaccurate it almost ruins the film for people who know what went on. I would have put Apollo 13 in its place. Superior film from 1995 that should have beaten Braveheart for Best Picture.

In my opinion*, this list is atrocious. Vertigo at 70? Seven place behind ... Groundhog Day?
* I'll spare someone the effort: Yeah, well, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man.

Trust me, as a parent with two young kids in the early 90s I have seen BATB more times than I can remember. I walked around the house with "Be My Guest" stuck in my head for days on end. 
To me, Top 100 is an extremely high bar. Are you really saying BATB belongs on there ahead of The Searchers, The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance, King Kong, Shane? Hell, I'd throw one of Leone's spaghetti westerns on there ahead of it (personally, I'd put The Good...)
As far as Annie Hall...meh. The film critics at the time, almost entirely located in New York and the northeast, were enthralled by a Woody Allen movie set in New York? Color me shocked. I'm not saying Annie Hall isn't a good movie. Just not Top 100 worthy.

There are some questionable ones on there, but I think Beauty and the Beast is in the debate for one of the top 100 films ever. It's the most perfect Disney movie and changed the way animation was done forever. I'd say next to Snow White (which has aged poorly), it is the most influential animated film of all time. Think about how animation was before and the direction it has gone in since. Think of the villains that animation at large has gone with since. Think of something you would change in it?
Well over half of the films on this list don't match this kind of criteria, and the film industry at large would be the same. As much as I love these movies, Up and WALL-E would be off the list way before this one, and I'd also put it ahead of the Lion King.
