WORK IN PROGRESS. Who knows when it'll be fully comprehensive.

UPDATE 1/21/08: Finally split into two lists (A-M and N-Z), because it was getting impossible to look through with ease, and I feared a maximum character limit. May require further divisions, as needed.

All directors listed by me on Listology are included. Working my way through my list on Spout.com. Currently up to: Army of Darkness

+/- rating: Seen prior to 2004 and the equivalent of a thumbs up or down.
/: undecided or it's been a long time since I've seen it and can't remember if I liked it or not.

Number rating: Based on a 5.0 point scale, which means I've seen it since 2004.

Cloned From: 
All films I've seen - listed by director

Exellent list, thank you. Is there any reason you don't use the numerical rating scale for films made prior to 2004?

P Pogo12/20/2007

Glad you like it. It's been a real chore to compile, and I'm not done yet. I think that I'm going to have to break the list up by alphabet or something, because it's just too long to casually peruse.

It's not actually films made prior to 2004, it's films I've seen since 2004.

It's only since then that I started using a ranking system at all. Before that it was just like/dislike, which is reflecting here too.
