I agree with Fargo's placement, but Miller's Crossing is still my favorite Coen brothers movie. I've always considered The Godfather Part II a better movie than The Godfather. Wonder what prompted the respective rankings of these two movies on the list... On the one hand I like that they featured a great collection of comedies, more than you'd normally see on a top 100 list. I disagree however on some of the movies listed relative to their placement on the list (Some Like it Hot at #9? nahhh and The Sting could have been much higher (closer to the top) in my book). No Blade Runner, which makes me sad. But seeing The Lion in Winter (#71 on the list), my favorite all-time movie, made me very very happy! I agree with your view on Sideways.
