#1: The Lion, The Witch & the Wardrobe  
#442: Stuart Little 2

_Stuart Little 2?!_

Hmmm…no wonder my sister apologized for adding movies to my list…

1. Foyle’s War, Series 3 (This is a British mystery series set during WWII).

2. Miss Potter (Very long wait)

**levdrakon** , I just sent back Pan’s Labyrinth on Friday. I enjoyed it, but it’s not for the weak-of-stomach; there are some fairly gross bits in the fantasy sections, and some brutal scenes involving the little girl’s fascist stepfather interrogating and killing prisoners.

…Was Pan’s Labyrinth any good? I think I’m going to add it.

I’ll let you know when I’ve finished it. (I fell asleep an hour into it, not because it was boring but because I was so exhausted I never should have started it.)

#1: _Revenge of the Pink Panther_ (I’ve been running through all the Pink Panther movies–all the ones with Peter Sellers, anyway–my last rental was _The Pink Panther Strikes Again_.)

#24: _Factory Girl_ (Listed as “very long wait,” which I expect will change by the time it reaches the top.)

#1: _Hot Fuzz_

#410: _Raise the Red Lantern_ The bulk of my list is various TV shows and anime I haven’t gotten around to watching yet.

**levdrakon** , _Pan’s Labryinth_ is an excellent dark fantasy; beautiful cinematography.

On Netflix:  
top: Moonphase  
end: Taboo (the National Geographic series, what’d you think?)

length: 132, not counting a long list of anime  
On Greencine (you gotta have both\*)  
top: Dial M for Murder (mini Grace Kelly festival)  
end: Electric Edwardians: The Lost Films of Mitchell & Kenyon (2005) – I keep this queue arranged by type and move things up as the affliction strikes me.

length: about 500-550; uncertain because I had to copy off a bunch to a seperate list because their database takes so long to build the queue.

- Both Netflix and Greencine have many items that the other does not.

This thread has already improved my life. It made me realize that Hot Fuzz needs to be much higher on our list (in part to break the sequence of depressing films we’re in the midst of). It’s at the top now.

If you get it before me, and I have to wait for it, I will be mighty displeased.

Mighty displeased I tell you!
