On this board? Oooh. I think there's a list. :lol: Countdowns. I abandoned the last one I took part in.

You don't actually have to do anything other than send a list unless you're the host. Some people post in the threads some don't.

I know what my #1 is without having to think.

25 films, right? I think I can send a list.

This countdown strikes me as a bit odd and I'm not sure why. Of course, I would still participate.

Yeah 25. I know my #1 too, i guess some members will know what it is. Got a private list on Letterboxd with 21 films i'd like to vote for so far, so have to get watching.

Everyone should check out some: Andrea Arnold, Lynne Ramsay, Kelly Reichardt and Claire Denis IMO.

Seems like people will be good with this being next but we are still missing the most important piece. That is unless this is Camo volunteering?

Suspect said he wanted to host one so maybe him unless he wants to do something else.

Sorry. Yeah, the graphic thing is why I won't ever do one either. What say you @TheUsualSuspect

Films co-directed by woman should definitely count.

Oddly it's three separate documentaries i'd consider voting for which were co-directed by women.

That list Camo linked to has an awful lot of pink. I'm starting to get uncomfortable.

I have no idea where to start with that list, so many of them i haven't heard of and know nothing about them. Here it is sorted by average rating - https://letterboxd.com/michaelhaneke...men/by/rating/

Here's a shorter 230 film list - https://letterboxd.com/catelyn/list/...cted-by-women/

When this becomes official I want to put together one of those challenges. You down for helping?

All of Wanda which is Barbara Loden's only film and is supposed to be excellent is on Youtube if anyone is interested, planning on watching it myself:

Absolutely. Do you mean the Horror Challenge except for female directed films? If so that's a great idea and yeah i'd help.

I like potting around with graphics. I'd be happy to help out if needed.

Yeah that would be great. The Horror one has been really fun. Like doing that sort of thing as well as the Director of the Month, to focus on one specific thing coz otherwise i'm all over the place with my movie watching and it takes me months/years to get far into a directors filmography or genre, decade, etc.

It's a hell of a lot of work that's for sure. I don't think I could do another.
