Here's AFI top 10:

1. Citizen Kane
2. Casablanca
3. Godfather
4. Raging Bull
5. Singin' in the Rain
6. Gone with the Wind
7. Lawrence of Arabia
8. Schindler's List
9. Vertigo
10. Wizard of Oz


Now I've seen all of them except Raging Bull (one of those gaps I mentioned), and while I'd certainly shuffle some and maybe put others ahead of them, etc., I at least GET why they're there. I really just don't even GET Citizen Kane. Whatever it is the experts see -- I just don't. I'd put all 8 that I've seen on that top 10 list ahead of it, along with a whole helluva lot of other movies too.
The one on that list that I really detest is Gone With The Wind. You'd have to strap me down Clockwork Orange style to get me to watch that bloated turd again. The only movie character I ever saw who annoyed me more than Scarlet O'Hara was Jar Jar Binks.

Yeah, I saw it in its entirety once, and bits of it here and there as my mother liked it a fair bit. It's not my favorite, to be sure. But it's a sweeping epic and well acted and all that, so I'm ok with it being on teh list. It's not on MY top 10, but I get why it's up there at least.

If Rhett had shot Scarlet right between the eyes at the end, I would have liked it a great deal more.
