Mr. Showbiz:

100 Best Movies of All Time

The Mr. Showbiz site, which Filmsite.org called, “one of the Web’s earliest providers of entertainment and celebrity news and information,” was established in 1995 and ceased in 2001. In 1997, the site published two lists – one ranked the top 100 movies based on critics and the other on readers. Here the two lists have been aggregated to create a single top 100 list.
