Following AFI's super-hyped redux of their Top 100 American Film countdown last year, the tradition continues tonight when they do their annual tribute to...well, good movies. This year's theme is 10 Top 10: ten top ten lists of the best (insert genre here)s of all time. I can't watch it tonight because I'm going to be with some friends, but I plan on taping it and watching it tomorrow. Anyways, here are my predix for the list, in alphabetical order only...

Ha ha. I'm glad Dumbo didn't make it to the final list. It's like the most racist cartoon ever.
