Seen 125 - exactly half, but I'll fix that soon. Most curious about:

Twin Peaks
La flor
Gebo and the Shadow
Finisterrae
Hahaha
Oki's Movie
Nobody's Daughter Haewon
Shoplifters
A Woman's Revenge

Unfortunately I'm stranded on an island because of a volcanic eruption and can't get home to watch any movies, at least until Wednesday.

I've only seen 37/250 (and 2 from the Top 10), so I have no opinion whatsoever about the list as such.

I might see some of the films on the list during this decade, if an opportunity arises and I don't have anything else to do, but as I'm mainly interested in 20th century cinema, I probably won't have seen more than 60/250 by 2030.

Thanks for all the work flip. Winter Vacation in the top 20? We fucking rule

I've seen 94/250

Most curious about:

7. Phoenix (Petzold 2014)
10. Stray Dogs (Tsai 2012)
31. Meek's Cutoff (Reichardt 2010)
51. Drug War (To 2012)
53. Burning (Lee 2018)
60. Certain Women (Reichardt 2016)
102. Welcome to New York (Ferrera 2014)
110. On the Beach at Night Alone (Hong 2017)
152. Knight of Cups (Malick 2015)
159. Mad Max: Fury Road (Miller 2015)
163. Manchester by the Sea (Lonergan 2016)
178. The Girl from Nowhere (Brisseau 2012)
190. The Beach Bum (Korine 2019)
195. The Lost City of Z (Gray 2016)
239. The Image Book (Godard 2018)

I've seen 197/250. Will get to 200 with the 2012 poll, most likely!

Haha, thanks If I weren't such a purist I could watch movies on my phone, but I've never done that. This trip has actually kept me safe, because I would have breathed volcanic ash if I had stayed home. It can cause silicosis.

By the way, our top 250 has made it to Letterboxd's most popular lists now.
