Announcing the next two rounds of my GooseEgg Marathon:(I may try to do 10 more to round out a full 50, but I think this is pretty ambitious for now!)
Round Three:(with one 90's film (!) )
Before Sunrise
The Hurt Locker
World's Greatest Dad
The Fantastic Mr Fox
Y Tu Mama Tambien
25th Hour
The Man Who Wasn't There
A Prairie Home Companion
Capturing the Friedmans
Team America World Police
Notes on Round 3:
As you might notice, I'm trying to squeeze three 2009 Filmspot eligible films in before the deadline. Not sure if they really qualify for "best of the decade" yet, but hey it's my list. You'll also notice I have a 1990's film on there. Well that's because you'll see it's sequel is in the next round. So that's my cheat on the round 3. I added two "fun" ones here "Team America" and "Prairie Home" just because round 4 is a bit somber in places.Round 4:Master and Commander - The Far Side of the World
Requiem for a Dream
Los Angeles Plays Itself
The Bourn Ultimatum
Grizzly Man
My Winnipeg
A History of Violence
The Wind that Shakes the Barley
The Squid and the Whale
Before Sunset
Notes on Round 4:
Trying to round out the rest of the "mainstream" films. If I end up having time I'll add a fifth and final round for more foreign stuff like Eureka, Moolaade, Triplettes of Belville, and L'Enfant. Too many movies too little time. The cheat on this list is Grizzly Man. I did see this once - with no idea no Herzog was and expecting a nature documentary. I wanted it with my wife who was not down and let it be known throughout the film. I'm wanting to give it another chance (like I did with Eternal Sunshine in round 2)
