2021 Film Challenge
If anyone wants me to post some of their generic suggestions for J6 in the OP, just let me know.
So I'll eventually send some but my advice is to not pick any of mine.

Update on my status:
Off to a good start, took advantage of the gloomy weather and just watched a lot of movies.
Will add a few more tonight once I finish football.

Okay, I'm going to give this a shot. Realistically, I won't be doing nightmare mode, but I'll include it just in case.

I may use one or two for other listings.

I'll join in on the challenge! It seems like a fun way to discover new films.
I don't know if I will be able to finish the nightmare mode, but I will just see how far I can get.
So far I've seen 4 films this year that I can use for the main challenge and 5 that fit nicely into the nightmare mode.

Just in case you weren’t aware, Gordon Willis was the cinematographer for Zelig. So you could move it to that category and check it off.
Thanks a bunch!

Watership Down on Netflix is 3 hours plus in a 4 episode miniseries form.
Will second Hunt for the Wilderpeople which I thought was good fun and Tangerine (although I had some third act issues, the journey taken was worthwhile). Lake Mungo is a solid thriller as is The 39 Steps.
I think Takoma knows exactly which film I'm picking for that category. Better late than never.
I'll work on some recommendations that will appear in this post in a day or two.

You’re in for a treat with Fritz Lang. Love his films.
Have Seen
The Big Heat (1953)
M (1931)
Metropolis (1927)
Scarlet Street (1945)
Spies (1928)
And this is what I've got lined up - so far, on my Nightmare Mode List:
Destiny (1921)
Human Desire (1954)
The Woman in the Window (1944)
Fury (1936)
Die Nibelungen: Siegfried (1924)
Dr. Mabuse the Gambler (1922)
And, thanks again, for getting me involved in this.
Much like the opportunities for seeing things I never would in the HoFs, this is an excellent personalized extension of delving into films/genres/etc. I've really needed to experience and yet, have not.
And thereby, I should also thank @Jabs for playing Host on this. VERY f@ckin cool!

I think "M" is the greatest thriller ever. Just an overall great movie.
