Cool list.  I wonder how much Raging Bull will jump in the updated AFI list, if it even does jump.  I do think there are a handful of movies that came out after 1997 that are Top 100 material.  Memento, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Saving Private Ryan, and The Matrix come to mind.

I can tell you that Easy Rider was left off because the author of the list was quoted as saying that while the movie was a hit when it was released, it is near unwatchable nowadays because it doesn't cross generational lines, or something like that.

Indeed it is, the first time I watched it was with my dad and we could both relate to it just as well as one another, to me its the sort of film thats timeless as it's based more on a belief of freedom that the setting or time in which it takes place.

Another good thing about Easy Rider is the look at new technology vs old, with the horse and the bike.  You can still relate to that idea with plenty of things in the world today.

I agree that the reasoning for leaving Easy Rider off is ridiculous. The movie is great and the soundtrack is classic. I didn't even realize Forrest Gump missed the list. Oh well, this is just one person's opinion. To each their own.
