All I meant was that I don't think a film should get a negative vote just because it's not in *your* top 100, which is basically the only reason you gave. It should get a negative vote if it's clearly undeserving, and hopefully you can provide some reasoning behind the negative vote.

My votes are based on several criteria. First thing I look for is usually Cultural Significance which can include Box Office, Camera Work, Technical Aspects for advancing the field of cinema and it's impact on the general population.
But then more personally, how well I feel the Narrative is written, Originality, Memorability, Re-Watchability, etc.
Now this being a general list of non-horror I think about sub-genres. I personally would like to see a fair share of different genres represented. Comedies, Action, Westerns, Sci-fi, etc. so I make picks based on that as well.
For instance in this batch I would put Star Trek II in a Top 100 Sci-Fi films, but with limited space I think other films in a "General List" are more important based on my other criteria.
That said...
From the current list, I would neg-vote:
A Few Good Men
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
Fargo
Glengarry Glen Ross
Gravity
Inception
Independence Day
Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl
Raging Bull
Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan
The Departed
The Elephant Man
The Lion King
