12/20 Far more populist than I'd like to be.  :P

10 my top 20 in this list, only two films in this list i'd consider good but not great, though were are going to talk snubs so...

Korea + Almodovar

anybody else have a few of these, i had 3 Pedro films and 5 from Korea in my Ballot.

my 2nd + 3rd nowhere, Adaptation and Bad Education

I don't say this to be mean Darcy, but I understand like 5% of what you post. Do you speak a different language?

As for the recent additions,

7/20, super happy that Mood made the list, but The Departed is such outright, well, never mind, I'm not going to go there, but it displeases me greatly to see such a waste of time made the list. Oh, and I'll never know the truth, but if negative votes allowed The Departed to make the top 20 over something else, that is yet more confirmation that the negative votes were a bad thing.

10 IN my top 20, only missing one word. Almodovar should make directors list on here and on pod.

I like The Departed, but I definitely don't think it's this good. After seeing Infernal Affairs I find it even less deserving. But I won't complain too much, it's still a mostly good movie.

In the Mood for Love I'm very happy to see make the cut. I knew it would, but I was starting to get a little worried anyways. :)

The Departed is a classic that gets better and better every time I watch it.
