169: AFI Top 100 Challenge - Mission Statement
from We Like Movies · host Matt Knudsen
Nearly 4 years ago we conceived of a new feature of the We Like Movies blog: A 100-installment challenge dedicated to the American Film Institute's controversial "best" list. But the challenge proved to be too much for our fledgling website and the feature was abandoned after only 4 films. But tonight, re-born and inspired by our recent WLM facelift, we submit to you the introduction to the definitive attempt at the AFI Top 100 Challenge! Our "spinoff" series begins here with an explanation of our intent and a delivery of the mission statement. Join us as we journey from BEN-HUR to CITIZEN KANE and every film in between. Viva la cinema!
