With the exception of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, the Asian list is really good, albeit a bit too modern for my taste. But it's a shame that there isn't a single film from the GOAT Tsui Hark in there.

Love that European winner. It isn't my favorite from Varda, but it's such an unexpected winner that it's great to see. MAR polls should have more unexpected winners for sure! Predictability is a poll's worst enemy!

North American list was expectedly predictable. But I can't really complain, as there are some really good films in there. Also, I'm glad Videodrome made the cut.

Alright, moving on to the ranked categories... The minimum required for entry onto the lists was minimum 10 points from minimum 2 ballots. Lofty, I know.
As such, the amount of films listed varies from category to category, and I always rounded to the nearest 5 so some stragglers had to get ditched. No great loss. Nobody wants a top 33.
Top 10 will get individual posts, the rest all grouped together.
Also, reposting the tiebreaking procedures in case anyone missed them before.
Tiebreaking procedure:-
(1) In result of tie, the film featured on more ballots gets the higher spot. The needs of the few outweigh the needs of the even fewer.
(2) If films appear on same amount of ballots then the film with more number 1 placements gets the higher spot.
(3) If both films have the same amount of/no number 1 placements then the film with the highest other placing gets the higher spot.
(4) If both films have the same highest placing spot then the film that appeared at that spot more often gets the higher spot.
(5) THAT BROKE ALL THE TIES!
TOP 20: Silent Films 17 ballots
20. The Last Command (Josef von Sternberg, 1928, USA) -----16 points/3 ballots
19. The Kid (Charles Chaplin, 1921, USA) -----18 points/4 ballots

14. Man with a Movie Camera (Dziga Vertov, 1929, Soviet Union) -----25 points/3 ballots/2 first-place votes
