In the short yet glorious history of this blog I have posted more film lists than you can shake a stick at (though why you'd want to shake a stick at a film list is beyond me). I've posted lists of directors' best films, best westerns (not the motel chain, the film genre), best film quotes, best of particular decades, best of particular years, best Christmas films, best films with train scenes, best opening scenes and best films set in San Francisco. To name a few.
So that about covers it, you say. Not so fast! I now offer a mere sampling of list topics that I have yet to get around to. I don't mean to suggest that I someday will write full posts on any or all of these, but one never knows. Meanwhile regular readers of this blog (both of us) can anticipate (dread?) all manner of film lists that are still to come. Maybe even one of these.
