It's hard to find anything negative to say about either. That was a really good year.

Why don't you posted the total points that each movie has got? It might be useful (for Some People/Me)

Oh, did Inland Empire have a chance of getting into the top 100 if I'd submitted a list with it at #1?

Depends how big the list was, but if it was the full 100, it would of made it 😄 The entire 80-150 section was really tight.

A win for High Fidelity. I knew it'd make it. The 2000's isn't by any means my favorite movie decade, but this list turned out way better than the 2010-present one.

The movies from my list which made the cut:

4. Mulholland Drive, by David Lynch (Inland Empire was my #8 )
5. The Return, by Andrey Zvyaguintsev
22. A History of Violence, by David Cronenberg (I had Spider at #50)
34. Spirited Away, by Hayao Miyazaki
39. Elephant, by Gus Van Sant (Gerry was my #3, and Last Days #31, and Paranoid Park #55)
43. The Departed, by Martin Scorsese (Gangs of New York was my #40, The Aviator #51)
64. Kill Bill, by Quentin Tarantino
71. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, by Michel Gondry

8 in all. My #1 was Pulse by Kurosawa Kiyoshi, I strongly recommend it.

There are a few films that would fit better at the top spot: Memento, Mulholland Dr, Eternal Sunshine, In the Mood for Love, or Lost in Translation; however, I like it a lot so I don't really mind.

Nah. Definitely not Memento, which I like but is deeply flawed. Mulholland Dr, Eternal Sunshine, In the Mood for Love and Lost in Translation are all great though, and I'd have no complaint about any of those although I still prefer No Country.

It's a rather flawless film (and book) that pretty much everyone knows. It's not surprising at all. I'm very satisfied with it's position at #1

2. I like the Pixar rankings tbh, Up and Finding Nemo are exactly at the positions they deserve.
3. How did Borat do?

I thought about posting the posts, but it seemed a bit menial. My Winnipeg had 180 points (the equivalent of 1 #1 and 1 #21 on lists out of 100).

Zoolander only edged out Casino Royale by 1 point actually.

Also, No Country For Old Men won by over 100 points.

basically a lot of the coloration and other odd effects on the images throughout the film were achieved via drawing on and otherwise modifying black film

Thumbnail. Click to enlarge.

does that count as animation?

Would paint-on-glass animation be allowed? And how about drawn-on-film animation? (a fair portion of the earlier mentioned Dog Star Man lays examples of both over and in between pieces of recorded footage)

Like Aleksandr Petrov's work? Course.

If you find the word 'animated' anywhere on the films wiki or imdb page, it'd be a go. I might have to watch Dog Star Man to completely understand what you're saying 🤣

Great list guys! Pity I didn't have much time lately or I would've submitted one too, though it would've contained a lot of the stuff that ended up on the list anyway...

Going to be plundering it for recs.
