Before we begin, I would just like to say that the voter turn out was great. However, there are a lot of different opinions on which Scores are truly the greatest. These different opinions created a lot of very close races.I chose not to expand this contest to a top 50 because I felt it would limit the amount of people that voted. I wanted a number that encouraged participation. This turned out to be a good decision because we had a good voter turn out. Every Score that made this list was voted on by atleast 2 people.The top 25 list surprised me. There were some truly great Scores that missed the list entirely. There were also some Scores that made the list which I didn't think would garner the support that they did. Ultimately, this list belongs to the members of Box Office Magazine, as you guys are the ones who determined the list.I am sure there will be some controversy about this list and debates about some of the Scores that made the list.
