...look below you.
Compiled is a maddeningly obsessive battering ram of lists which I have lovingly reproduced in their entirety. One day, this will not only be complete -- spanning every single year since movies got above feature length (i.e., 45 minutes +) -- but each year will be respectable.
However, keep in mind the following:
a) Years are subject for debate. Ordinarily, I trust the IMDb. Other times, I go by release dates as mandated by when they hit New York. Depends, really, mostly if they're recent; if, oh, say, Rashomon arrived stateside at a later year than 1951, then oh well -- it's in 1951 anyway. Did I say it's "subject for debate?" No. No debate. Just accept.
b) Odds are it's been years, if not eons, since I've seen lots of these, so expect a lot of jiggering in positions. Believe that what you see on the page is how I really feel about the listing; I might have changed it and will notify when something like that occurs. Such are the joys of experience: something which walloped me in 1994 might plummet in value nowadays and vice versa. Speaking of which...
c) The joys of experience, elaborated upon. Basically, this is a subjective compilation, meaning that it doesn't represent how "good" I feel a movie is but rather how it struck me. That's why, 'frinstance, The Big Lebowski features so prominently on the 1998 list. For that matter, is The Last Boy Scout better than the Kazhakstanian pic Kairat? So why does the smart-assed, machismo-drenched Tony Scott thingie place one better than the slow, meditative and charmingly incidental B&W pic from an unrepresented country? Converse.
d) Beware of the auteur theory. I don't, strictly speaking, believe in it, but apparently enough so that certain Joe Dante and Paul Verheoven pics receive some favors. Just a warning.
e) The "Almost" and "Huh?" categories should be plenty self-explanatory, though here's a bit more about the latter: these are usually reserved for titles which have a high standing not only in commercial/social/socio-political history that I think are overrated, but also sometimes one in places I highly respect. Other times, it's just me letting you know I don't like two consecutive Tom Hanks movies.
f) As of this date, I've seen something to the tune of 3250 movies -- a frightening total considering I'm but 25 years old. With that number foisted upon you, it's worth noting that I still have many notables or classics to catch up on -- one glance at certain years before 1950 should further elaborate upon this. (And 1994 is a disaster.) Letting you know, I’m aware and I’m all over it.
g) For space reasons, this page right here only goes back to 1970. The lists for 1969 and backwards are right here. Do not send me mail telling me this is a shoddy system.
Alright, enough of my jibber-jabbering. We've got some Dewies to give out!
