Let me know what kind of stats you're all interested in. I'll see what I can put together.
As I said in chat, I hope that, over multiple iterations of this list, we'll work towards a Top 100 where every film has a raw average of at least 7.00. If we'd apply that standard to this list, these lesser seen films would have made the cut:
Welfare
Primary
The Weather Underground
The Emperor's Naked Army Marches On
La Soufrière
Children Underground
Crisis: Behind a Presidential Commitment
Eyes on the Prize
Burma VJ: Reporting from a Closed Country
Shut Up & Sing
Deep Water
The Act of Seeing with One's Own Eyes
Paris Is Burning
Scratch
The Battle of Chile
Public Housing
Near Death
And these films would have dropped out:
Anvil! The Story of Anvil
This Film Is Not Yet Rated
Super Size Me
Encounters at the End of the World
Gates of Heaven
The Last Waltz
Jesus Camp
Restrepo
Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room
Catfish
An Inconvenient Truth
Dear Zachary: A Letter to a Son About His Father
24 City
Fahrenheit 9/11
La Danse: The Paris Opera Ballet
Trekkies
My Best Fiend: Klaus Kinski
Some interesting tradeoffs, there.
Should've known the Holocaust would win. Holocaust docs always win.
...making the absence of
The Sorrow and the Pity from the shortlist even more odd.
