I think that’s really overly simplifying it. There just is so many genuinely great and amazing movies that we are that the point you can make an argument for well over 100 movies to be the top 10 movies of all time as they are so close in quality and have just simply have different strengths. As well, taste is very dynamic and changes constantly. Guillermo del Toro had a really good quote on it that if you asked him next week he would have a totally different list. I think the fact that so many of the same movies do keep showing up to be a huge testament to their greatness

And most of the ones in the top 10 are in the top 100 later years.
