Is anyone opposed to me posting the remaining films on my list? I know some people have run out of films, but by seeing lists from others, it might remind them of a few films. There are 2 Coen Brothers films I'm shocked haven't been nominated yet. 01-23-2019 05:18 PMmaeI will second The Mask and that makes 216 seconded titles and now 40 remain. Choose wisely. 01-23-2019 05:25 PMStill Servant 01-23-2019 05:38 PMmaeWell, I for one am far from scraping the bottom of the barrel. I'm about halfway through my barrel.
