  1. any recognition for The Muppets always works for me...though a bunch of these picks are very solid. Glad to see them saved for posterity.

  2. I'm shocked that Dog Day Afternoon hasn't been in the National Film Registry till now. Also its great to see Once Upon A Time In The West, one of my personal top 10 movies of all-time as well as being the greatest western ever made.
