The Lord Of The Rings
We end the T100P with a cliffhanger! LOTR: FOTR clearly represents the entire trilogy, which is good for us because we spent a lot of this 'cast talking about the 2 sequels. The cast is terrific, the…

The Sixth Sense
The 122nd T100P 'cast dives into an intimate ghost story after weeks of big-budget epics. Is this movie more effective when you know the twist...or less? Is it a worthy way to end a great run of AFI …

Titanic
Hey, it's the movie about the giant boat that stupidly crashed into a jerk piece of ice. It's also the movie about JACK and ROSE! Our 120th edition was the biggest box-office smash ever for 12 years,…

Fargo
Is the subject of our 119th T100P ‘cast terrific stuff? Oh, you betcha. The Ellises love the filmography of Joel & Ethan Coen, so we not only talked about this bloody comedy, but about most of their …

Pulp Fiction
It's funny, it's violent, it's jammed with F's, it's brilliant and it's...full of forgiveness? Quentin Tarantino's opus to L.A. hitmen & scumbags is as influential as a modern movie can get. John Tra…

Back To The Future
Marty! Why not cover this incredibly fun movie 2 days before Michael J. Fox and Chris Lloyd travel to the space-agey future with hoverboards and McGuffin-esque sports almanacs?! Of course we gab abou…

Forrest Gump
A movie hated as much as it is loved occupies T100P #115. This flick shouldn't make us love it so much, but Tom Hanks and Robert Zemeckis sell it beautifully at (nearly) every turn. The cast is fine,…

Schindler's List
The pinnacle of Holocaust movies is featured in our 114th episode. Steven Spielberg was not the obvious choice to direct this devastating picture, but Mister Blockbuster found a way to merge art with…

Clint Eastwood's ballyhooed western is the subject of our 113th podcast. Gene Hackman is his leather-tough nemesis (we haven't seen ol' Gene in a while) and we finally get some Morgan Freeman in our …

The Silence Of The Lambs
Our 112th edition is a cannibalistic thriller treat with Jodie Foster & Anthony Hopkins equally matched as hero & villain. Let's not forget the scary brilliance of Ted Levine's performance though. We…

Dances With Wolves
Kevin Costner makes his sole AFI appearance where he acts, produces and directs this sympathetic Civil War western. We get political again in this podcast, but don't let our liberal guilt ruin your g…

Goodfellas
We begin the '90s with one of the most fun gangster movies ever put on film: Martin Scorsese's Wise Guy! De Niro, Pesci and Liotta are criminal scumbags, but they seduce you into loving them anyway. …

Brokeback Mountain
It's been a while, but here's our first Not 100 Project podcast in 4 months. Brokeback Mountain's quiet heartbreak still resonates, especially as embodied by Heath Ledger. Jake Gyllenhaal is awfully …

Do The Right Thing
T100P podcast #109 is ageless and urgent. Spike Lee's finest film stars himself with a tremendous cast of exuberant character actors. The passion, the energy, the (unfortunately) timely subject matte…

Platoon
Come have 2 grunts fight for possession of your soul by listening to our 108th T100P 'cast. This was back when Charlie Sheen wasn't a twit-bag and Tom Berenger was at his peak. Oliver Stone has only …
