in scanning that list, and looking at the choices, with so many more
current posters being shown with nothing more than photographic
images, i think one can say that this list is TRULY in the eye of the
beholder (or compiler) of that list.

Howdy y'all,
It was good to see American Beauty as the #2 poster in
a compilation of the 100 greatest movie posters by
independent critics(?). Naturally, I can understand
how the exalted status of that (real photo) navel
easily surpasses prevoius decades of ho-hum art;
thereby vaulting cleanly over lesser known posters;
Gilda, for example, (currently #22).
I kid.
Possibly, there is method to this madness.
To wit: Create dialog (read controversy), resulting in
increasing hits on the website, which the vendor(s)
utilize(s) as advertising/marketing POS.
An additional element: poster purchases could lead to
exponential voting power. Heck ...I would buy 5
American Beauty posters to be able to vote (my
beloved) Gilda into the top 10.
You're right, I kid again.
All in all, why not choose the top 5 posters from each
decade 1910s thru 1980s. (Before the 10s, many have
not survived ... and I'm not sure there are many
choices after the 80s).
