It’s odd to me that there are 32 people working on this list, yet I seem to be the only one bothered by the fact that the list is incompletable. I have only one film left; when I see it I guess I’ll just drop this list rather than keeping a list at 99% forever.

It’s really just an AFI list with a few token non-U.S. films, anyway.

By the way, there is technically something wrong with this list. — 1 year ago

Lists of Bests will never allow you to finish this list (if you’ve seen all of them, it will show as 99%; if you’ve seen 88 of them, it will show you as 87% completed, etc.). I believe it is like this for everyone.

As this is a closed list, I suggest that the original poster replace each film one at a time until the bug is found.

I was going to say similar to MestnyiGeroi: quite a lot of American classics but world cinema is sold short (mainly the usual suspects like Kurosawa + a few popular films known to world cinema beginners).

Scant evidence of the W in WFI, and quite a few choices geared to young, recent, pop stuff. But hey, every list has its target, and I suspect a majority of North Americans would agree with your list.
