I thought we'd save 1931 for an October.. but sure, let's do a space odyssey.

All lingering year polls will be posted by then. Apologies for the unusual year—had some shitty social life stuff & also was working 60+ hours a week to get into my dream grad schools, which happily, it looks like is going to happen.

I'm sure I've seen more, but I've only logged eight movies from 2017. And 1899... is that even a year?

If I had my way, it would be 1895-1965, but it's not supposed to be unilateral judgment to accord with one person's taste and interests.
Maybe it's finally time to create a decade poll? For an earlier decade? Like the 1930's?

The good thing about a month's worth of worthless years like 2017 and 1899 is that it will allow me to watch movies that I was unable to see from earlier polls - 1938, I'm sure, still holds some delightful surprises, not to mention 1939 - while everyone else is debating the merits or lack thereof of such past and current titans of cinema as Méliès, the Lumière and Manaki brothers, Sofia Coppola, Hong Sang-soo, Yorgos Lantimos, and Noah Baumbach.
