I suspect part of this is that your classic "film buff" is probably significantly overrepresented here, and that that demographic skews male.
That would certainly explain a lot about the two lists. The women's list is much more modern and mainstream popular movies, while the men's list has a lot of classics that I think it's fair to say the average person today is far less likely to have seen. The type of person who watches a lot of old classic and foreign movies is probably likely to be the same kind of person who has a lower than average opinion of most mainstream movies coming out today.
