125100. Although I have to imagine what would've happened had he gotten us to believe the discovery of a workprint of Ambersons as opposed to the lost (and relatively lesser known) Four Devils. The Welles community would've gone completely insane.

Too funny...I always imagined Zappa's voice circa Overnite Sensation.

Cria Cuervos – My introduction to Saura. This thing gave me chills. Utterly gorgeous.
Forum Member of the Year:
HerrSchreck, for giving my brain a workout on a regular basis. I suppose it wouldn't be as nearly a struggle if I had the amount of knowledge of cinema that you do.
Special mention goes to zedz, davidhare and MichaelB (for the same reason as schreck) and Michael (for displaying such passion for the films that he watches).
Also, to the mods/administrators of this board, for keeping things orderly on a consistent basis and for making this a wonderful community to learn about movies.

A tie between zedz, davidhare, MichaelB and HerrShreck. It's you guys who compel us whippersnappers to spare no haste in ordering all sorts of Stiller silents, Polish animation anthologies, Sokurov elegies and battered VHS copies of Leisen comedies/melodramas from the library purely because they sound fucking essential (and invariably are). Hats off.

So many. Sansho, just for the quote, followed by Monsters and Madmen.

I'm a filmic idiot, so half of the releases are new/introductions to me. I'd say I enjoyed 3-Penny Opera much more than I thought I would.
