TV shows and movies now added - though "Uncovering the Real Dickens" doesn't seem to be on IMDb.

My inclination is to not add the TV series - though since most of them seem to be miniseries (or relatively short series like "The Prisoner,") I might change my mind.

I wish you would (change your mind about this).

General note: the original list contains four short films that are part of larger omnibus/anthology films - though the listmakers specify the short film (for example, Pasolini's short in "Caprice Italian Style,") I had to include the entry for the full omnibus film since there is no way to select the individual short.

The four shorts that are part of larger anthologies are:

-Fellini's "Toby Dammit" from Spirits of the Dead
-Pasolini's "Che cosa sono le nuvole?" from Caprice Italian Style
-Pasolini's "The Earth Seen from the Moon" from The Witches
-Pasolini's "The Sequence of the Paper Flower" from Love and Anger

My inclination is to not add the TV series - though since most of them seem to be miniseries (or relatively short series like "The Prisoner,") I might change my mind.

Other than that, the list is fully added now. I added those four Melies films that appear on other lists, and made sure that the rest are available on the internet. My selections are still fairly arbitrary, though "Une partie de cartes" is one of his very first films and "Conquest of the Pole" is one of his last.

I have no method for choosing Melies films; I'll just point out that all of the following are included on official iCM lists:

Will you be adding the TV shows?

I'm actually still in the process of adding the full list - there are about 200 more titles, which I probably won't get to until tomorrow.

But, to be honest, I wasn't sure which Melies films to choose, so I just randomly chose ten of his films that I'm pretty sure were pretty easy to find (though I was sure to include "Voyage to the Moon," "The Merry Frolics of Satan," and "The Impossible Voyage," which are among his most famous.) If you or anyone else has a better method for choosing titles I'm open to changing it around.

Thanks for adding this!

How did you decide which Melies shorts to include?
