the EOD polls that listed 'crimson gold' were scraping the barrel, big time.
Whatever, Crimson Gold is at least silver.

Surprised Amores Perros didn't place - maybe Inarritu and Arriaga pissed away all the initial goodwill by repeating the narrative trick until it made no sense whatsoever.

THE POLL IS NOT OVER.
(dont think it'll place tho)
(and i do think that that's the reason why. also that movie wasn't that great)
how many French films have made this poll, just token Desplechin?
― Fusty Moralizer (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 10 February 2010 14:59 (sixteen years ago)
iirc like 100 (mostly american?) people voted on like 1000 films so it shouldn't be surprising that the list of winners looks like a list of films most people were able to see and thought were ok. films from iran don't come around that often ime, the couple i have seen were made in the 90s

lol @ desplechin being a "token" choice

But I do realize most of them probably never had a wide release (I saw all of them at film festivals), so it's unlikely too many people here have seen them.

saw a couple of those tuomo latinos - japon can suk a dik - 9 queens was fun but nowhere near votable - did however vote the hell out of city of god
― ice cr?m, Wednesday, 10 February 2010 15:08 (sixteen years ago)
japon (and alla that guy's films) sucked ass; just genuinely haven't heard of one well-regared cuban film since, like, the 70s.

At this point I'm just waiting for the goddamn thing to finish, hoping to see a couple decent zings against Tanenbaums, and looking forward to the individual lists getting posted.

"the list of winners looks like a list of films most people were able to see and thought were ok."
NETFLIX has a lotta subtitled-make-head-hurt films. What you mean is ambitious, adult films that most people have no interest in seeing.
