Another damn AFI top 100 list!

The AFI did yet another 100 film list, rather than type out their selections, I have decided to provide a link instead.
2007 AFI list of top 100 movies - USATODAY.com
I have mixed feelings about this list; I was over joyed to see that the Buster Keaton film The General was number 18 on the list, considering that it was overlooked on the 1998 list. Plus, I was ultra-happy to see that the grossly over-rated film The Graduate was no longer in the top 10 (thought it still remains in the top 20, which is way too high).
On the other hand, a lot of the films on the original list got dropped in favor of such fare like The Sixth Sense, The Shawshank Redemption, Titanic, Saving Private Ryan, etc. I can't believe classics like Patton, Stagecoach, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, The Third Man, From Here to Eternity, and The Manchurian Candidate were taken off the list in favor of these films. I was happy to see: A Place in the Sun, The Jazz Singer, Dances With Wolves, Guess Who's Coming To Dinner, An American in Paris, and Rebel Without a Cause taken off the list, because frankly none of them have aged very well.
Hopefully if the AFI does another list in ten years they will have the decency to vote off Forrest Gump, Rocky, Sound of Music, Sophie's Choice, West Side Story, Saving Private Ryan, The Sixth Sense, The Graduate, and other undeserving fare.
And finally, why is Citizen Kane always number one? I like Citizen Kane, it's a great movie and definitely deserves to be ranked high on a top 100 list, but can't the members of the AFI just for once give the number one slot to a different film. Why not Encino Man? Or Teen Wolf? Anything other than Citizen Kane.
