I thought that they did a good job by not catering to the masses.
No "Empire Strikes Back"
No "Return of the Jedi"
Star Wars only checked in at #27
For those who missed it, the top 3 were
#3 The Exorcist
#2 Jaws
#1 Psycho (There were about 8 or 9 Hitchcock films included)

Their concept may be a bit broad, but when discussing why a certain film was picked, they focused on certain scenes. Having a thrilling "scene" in a film made it elligible for the list.
