I love the Criterion Collection and this is a great idea for a poll with a good intro. The list is also an excellent list of excellent films (the results would be really interesting). My guess, though, is that the list is far from complete. I found the films below** that fit your inclusion guidelines but the collection has so many movies that I'd think that it'd be very difficult to get a complete list using almost any guidelines. I don't think that a complete list is necessary, though, as long as that's clear in the intro. Perhaps including something like, "The below is just a sampling of the great films that the collection offers. Which of these is your favorite The Criterion Collection title?" would work. ___________________________________ FYC** Secrets & Lies (1996) Memories of Murder (2003) 8 1/2 (1963) The 400 blows (1959) Diabolique (1955) The Wages of Fear (1953)

@rubyfruit76 thank you, the text has been edited. Indeed, this situation (too many options) is a good example of a possible Part 2... (split the list of candidates)

@mariojacobs The amazing thing, too, is that there are so many good options. You did a really good job of choosing ones that people will know, though. Btw, I love the intro. It's concise but still gives a lot of good information about Criterion.

Mario, if you are still intending to make more parts to this poll, then you should probably follow a chronological order to list all qualifying films.

Thanks for your input, but I am not suggesting new ideas. I am just bumping/deleting old ones.

I think we are getting close to having full functionality back. There is a new feature in the threads where you can sort the replies from oldest or newest. I take that as a sign.
