What is this?
Begun in 2007, Doubling the Canon is a yearly project which aims to expand the Film Canon as crafted by the They Shoot Pictures, Don't They? website.
Who can participate?
Anyone can join. Filmmakers, FIPRESCI members or Sight & Sound voters were among our jurors in the past, they are welcome as well.
Requirement for newbies: Please note that you will be requested to identify yourself, just to make sure that the poll is answered (only once) by cinephiles of good will.

Any film that is newly admitted to the Doubled Canon must be subjected to a revote after 5 years so we're going to revote the 2018 entries.

Phase I: Nominations for titles not on either TSPDT lists (2000 Greatest Films + 21st Century top 1000) or the Doubling list.
Deadline: May 6.
Each participant can nominate a maximum of 12 films. Shorts, TV-movies, and TV mini-series are eligible. Every nominated movie goes onto the roster as a nominee. Films released in 2022-23 aren't allowed this year for our exercise.
sol, lineuphere and flavo5000 get respectively 3, 2 and 1 extra nominations.
Along with a list of the titles, please include the corresponding list of bare IMDb urls for the same films.

Ongoing list of nominated films: See the post below.
Phase II: Ratings.
You're invited to rate the films you have seen (whether you have participated in the phase I or not). The nominees with the highest ratings make it into our list.
You can cast your votes anytime between now and Wednesday, May 31. Only 'write-in' updates will be accepted after the deadline.
Please, sign your ballot. Example: This is Angel Glez.
Rating system: 0-6 (3.75 was the cutoff last year)
