Comizi d'amore (http://www.icheckmovies.com/movies/comizi+damore/) is missing from this list. It is included on the Accattone release. - Personally, I don't think it should be added, but since Bon Voyage, etc. have been added while they're only extras on the Lifeboat release, Comizi should be added as well. Or even better: remove Bon Voyage and the other non-official releases.

There is also: http://www.icheckmovies.com/movies/sopralluoghi+in+palestina+per+il+vangelo+secondo+matteo/ which was released with The Gospel According to Matthew.

*puts on moderator hat, clears throat*

We've reordered the list. It's now more or less in spine order, but (as you may know), Masters of Cinema "reset" the spine numbers when they started releasing titles on blu-ray, which means that we can't have both DVD and blu-ray releases in 100% spine order. Hopefully the new order will be a satisfying compromise where both are mostly in spine order.

The new order has DVD's first, blu-rays second. With titles released both on blu-ray and DVD, the format that was released first "gets" the title. If the release date is the same for both blu-ray and DVD the blu-ray "gets" it. Masters of Cinema currently release most of their titles as "dual format" blu-ray+DVD sets, which means new titles will be added to the end of the list.

The first blu-ray on the list is Mad Detective, currently at number 139.

We added Comizi d'Amore to the list, since it seems clear to us that it is intended as a "co-feature" in the way it's presented on the Masters of Cinema website and we removed the short films Aventure Malgache and Bon Voyage, since it seems clear those are extras (on Hitchcock's Lifeboat).

This is just as important as Criterion and should therefore be made into an official list. I have seen 117 of these films and have many more on DVD, to watch later.

This definitely deserves to be made into an official list. Good job! As for box sets it would be wise to include all the titles they contain, at least that's the practice on the criterion list.

Yep but can't be helped really, just have to add new films as they come up chronologically.

Ugh, kinda stinks that the DVDs and Blu-Rays use different numbering. Still, a good list.

Okay there we go - up to date right now.

Yeah would be cool to see a Second Run list if someone ones to do that. I may do a BFI flipside if its not already done...

Thanks for adding this. I'm hoping to add some more of the "boutique" DVD labels (specifically Artificial Eye, Second Run, Flicker Alley, and Cinema Guild) in the future, once I upgrade my account - though if someone else gets to them first, I won't complain.
