Special notes for the below lists

A rating will be preceded by a tilde (~) if it’s been too long since I last saw that film for me to be sure of precisely how much I cared for it. This applies to everything I last saw before I started logging ratings in October 2009.
If a list has less than ten films then I just haven’t seen enough films I like (i.e. 6.0 and higher) from that year to compose an entire, proper Top 10. They’ll all be filled up eventually. Promise.
A list is replaced with TK when there are less than five films from that year that I like. (Exception: the Silent Era, since for some years it will take me a long time to discover five films I like.)
The “Intending to See” lists are precisely that. Films get included here for myriad reasons, all of them subject to personal whims. (NOTE [January 2026]: These use to align with various completist projects I engaged in, but, because life really is too short, it now only includes films I’m particularly interested in seeing.)
