At least it's broken up into neat episodes so you can just watch one at a time.

The ones I haven't seen yet. These four look like easy watches: Wanda News from Home The Gleaners and I Tropical Malady These two will take more time: Satan's Tango Histoire(s) du cinéma I've actually seen the first third of Satan's Tango and some watch it in a single day but there was no way I'd do that. Like Shoah or Berlin Alexanderplatz I'm going to watch that on/off for a few months.

Satantango is GOAT These are the ones I have yet to see: 1. Shoah 2. The Piano 3. Daughters of the Dust 4. The Red Shoes 5. Imitation of Life 6. Sansho the Bailiff 7. Celine and Julie Go Boating 8. A Matter of Life and Death 9. Histoire(s) du Cinema 11. The Earrings of Madame de… 12. The Leopard 13. Once Upon a Time in the West Seeing five of these at the BFI in January and probably others in Feb and March but they aren’t on sale yet. If Playtime shows at the BFI IMAX I might just about poo poo myself

I watched Histoire(s) du cinema earlier this year and the big thing is it’s surprising how watchable it is, so long as you don’t force yourself to understand every little thing. The greater meanings of the episodes do come across, I thought, but there’s so many moments you can’t force yourself to comprehend every line so it’s better to just enjoy it as an avant-garde miniseries. The episodic nature makes it almost “bingeable” as horrible as that phrase is, but I did it in a couple sittings and thought it kind of flew by.

I was wondering where that 250 list was located. Once that's released on Tuesday then the TSPDT 1000 list should be updated in March.

How many votes are needed to make top 250, like 5 or 10?

checkplease posted:How many votes are needed to make top 250, like 5 or 10? There were 1,639 voters so that's 16,390 total votes. The site says there were over 4,000 unique films selected (don't know the exact number). To make the top 100 in 2012 a film needed 17 votes. The total votes and unique films (in 2012) were roughly half of those in 2022. So if things are on the same scale in 2022 then a film would need ~35 votes to make the top 100 this year. Based on how many ties there are in the lower ranked films (in the top 100) I'd guess the number would be higher than the 5-10 range. But  .

Escobarbarian posted:Nah he’s waiting for the individual ballots so it’ll be way later in the year now Yeah, and he's right that it's absolutely worth waiting for the individual ballots because that will be the truly more interesting shakeup in the TSPDT math. I dunno, I believe that they underestimated just how much time it takes to individually import over 1600 lists with over 16000 entries plus comments. I don't think they have any sort of automated system setup so I imagine it's doing it by hand from whatever methods they let people use for submission. Worth remembering it's just a magazine that does this, for all I know they could have used Google Docs. edit: TSPDT posted an update over the weekend -- with a refreshed look! Says they're now eyeing April or May for the 2023 list assuming S&S hits their March 2 deadline. But in the meantime he put up a bunch of updates including the Best of 2022 list.

So of interest is that TSPDT's 2021 readers' poll had 1,983 voters allowed ballots of 25 films each. So that math changes considerably but for inclusion in the top 1,005 (five extra given the number of ties) a film needed 9 votes, while the top 101 (a three-way tie for 98th place) a film needed 88 votes. But the significant increase in ballot size and larger voting pool changes that math a lot. https://theyshootpictures.com/2021poll.htm

Variety also released a top 100 list for the first time recently https://variety.com/lists/best-movies-of-all-time/ I need to see these five: #59 Vagabond #60 Moulin Rouge! (2001) #66 Paris Is Burning (1990) #79 Waiting for Guffman (1996) #80 Pixote (1980) TrixRabbi posted:I dunno, I believe that they underestimated just how much time it takes to individually import over 1600 lists with over 16000 entries plus comments.

I was thinking Google Docs should've worked okay although I could see it turning into a giant mess if people entered film titles in different languages or used alternate titles etc. A pull-down menu with every film ever released would be the way to go.

I wonder if they're going to do another one of those reader polls.

When was the last time Fantasia made one of these? It isn't on the 2022 longlist, or the 2012 list or, if I'm not mistaken, the 2002 list. I know it's cliche to grouse about what didn't make it or what should have placed higher (or lower), but that's a fascinating perennial omission. I assume some of it is down to critical disdain for the Walt Disney company compounded by Disney being really weird about putting the film out there for decades now.

I assume some of it is down to critical disdain for the Walt Disney company compounded by Disney being really weird about putting the film out there for decades now. It was theatrically re-released every decade since the original release (1947, 1956, 1969, 1977, 1982, and 1990) and only got a video release in 1990. But it's had the strictest "vault" status as it's only reissued on disc once a decade and the latest iteration is only available via Disney Movie Club. I personally feel it's the "Citizen Kane" of the Walt-era features, so it's absolutely Disney's fault for ignoring the film for the last 12 years.

I'm at 72%, 191/264. So 73 to go, of which 13 are in the top 100. Unsurprisingly the Top 264 is way more interesting, and hopefully makes up for that lack of Latin American and South American cinema in the Top 100 since there's a good amount here, including some really unexpected picks. I still don't really "get" The Headless Woman though, that one rolled off me entirely.

Zogo posted:I've seen 206/264. Well, Fire Walk with Me is in there too, so 208! Unfortunately you do need to watch them all in order: Original Twin Peaks (Seasons 1 and 2), Fire Walk with Me, The Return (Season 3). It's phenomenal though. Yes, everyone always over-exaggerates the Season 2 slump when Lynch left to go make Wild at Heart. But honestly it's not that bad and it makes up for it in the series finale. And then FWWM and The Return are just out and out masterpieces the entire way through. kanonvandekempen posted:Not a single Haneke in the top 250?

I like/love all his other films. I remember not being a fan of the soundtrack on Lost Highway but that'd be the only gripe. I'm much more averse to jumping into a longer series even when I think I'll enjoy it (especially binge-watching).

My favorite segment was probably Sabine Azéma reading things in the fourth episode.
