Your list is showing Error 404 message.
When I saw 'Alternate History Movie', I remember that I made a similar suggestion before.
Favorite Alternate History Film - http://www.imdb.com/list/ls038177137/
Is your list similar to mine?

I find the idea interesting but I'm not sure I would have mixed time-travel stories with movies set in an alternate universe/reality/history, the reason is this: the essence of time travel stories is to change/alter reality in a way or another, it is the most predictable aspect of the narrative, so it can't be creative in the sense that it's a common trope codified by this particular type of story. Yes there is revisionism, but it can't be more creative than a movie that actually revise history.
When I read your description, I immediately expected to see Inglourious Basterds, perhaps the gutsiest example of revised history (not that I loved the film but I admired QT's daring approach to WW2 material) so I wasn't surprised to see the film topping the list, same with Planet of the Apes, good choice, but then I saw Back to the Future, I saw like "huh?", why including time travel stories, anyway?
It's not the same approach to alternate reality, time travel stories alter realities established by their own narratives and it's expected, the other movies alter realities established by our personal knowledge and that is indeed creative.
