1001 Movies you must see before you die
I have about 100 movies left to watch if I combine all editions. I'll re-watch some of them because I don't remember them.
Also I've been compiling custom lists in groups of 100.

I've seen 426 of them. After I finish up with Sight & Sounds' list, I might watch some films from that list.
Can't find:
Deewaar (it's on YouTube, but I can't get any subtitle files to match up to the film)
No Fear, No Die

Just checked and apparently I'm at 995/1,245. Still not at 1,001 itself.

I was going by that book for like 2 months after getting it.
But the book is pretty bad.
For one, it has a film from 1903 and then the next one is from 1915.
It skips 12 years of cinema.
With each new edition, an old masterpiece is switched to a new film, usually not a very good one.

Not bad given I was only going by that book for a short time in 2012.
I just skimmed through the movies I still haven't seen. And I don't want to watch any of them TBH.

To be fair, over half the 21st century films on the full list don't make it on all the individual lists and get booted off after a year or two. While they still suffer too much from recency bias, their bias for most of the recent releases doesn't last long.
Still though, it's not the best consensus I've come across. I'm currently using (I think) the 2020 list to get recommendations from. Once I'm done with it, I'll likely have over 100 movies left to see on the full list, but if most of those turn out to be 21st century films, I'll likely just switch over to something else.

I don't think there's a loooot of recency bias. I mean, the list peaks in the 1980s as far as quantity, and 1960s through 1990s are fairly close.
