	Armageddon was 1998, not 1991. I kept trying to think of what Michael Bay might have directed before Bad Boys, and why Criterion would want to bother with it... well, I guess I'm still wondering on the second part.

	Also, it's Samurai III: Duel at GANRYU Island. I was trying every combination to get that one to work. Very fun quiz though. Hope the rest of the collection shows up soon.

	The first Fellini film came out in 1973.

	I know you want one director per line, but Michael Powell's works are completely separate from Powell & Pressburger's works. You'll need to credit Pressburger to The Red Shoes, Black Narcissus, etc.

	You have to accept all the film's titles in their original languages (i.e. La grande illusion) as well as their English translations (i.e. The Million), not some of each.

	what a strange list. "For those of you who loved The Seventh Seal and Nanook of the North, here's Armageddon and Chasing Amy."

	For the compilation titles, you should take the individual titles of the films and not necessarily expect us to know what Criterion titled the compilation. Remember, the question says "can you name the films." So it should take Orpheus, Alexander Nevsky, The Fatal Glass of Beer, etc.

	I am thankful that Criterion exists. Though I didn't do great on this quiz, the ones on this list I do own are my favorite DVDs. I just want to know why they took so long to release Rashomon!

	What's with the least guessed film, the Powell/Pressburger one? I've tried all kinds of spellings, and I still couldn't guess it. Judging by only 0.2% that guessed it, a film much more known than many in front of it, I think I'm not alone in this.

	You need to accept alternate titles Beastie Boys Video Anthology and W. C. Fields—Six Short Films are way to specific, Beastie Boys and WC Fields should be accepted. Also "Coup De Torchon" is also (well) known as "Clean Slate".

	By the way, it won't accept I Know Where I'm Going! I spent the last 2 minutes of the quiz trying to get it to accept it.

	I really didn't care for this as I think it should be numbered as Criterion numbers them. Also it wasn't clear this was for DVD (though clearly it was). Their laserdiscs came in a totally different order. I would say this quiz is a bit of a mess.

	How did this get published? Pokerpunim contributed 2 quizzes on December 6, 2009. This one and one other. He's never commented and he's only played 5 quizzes ever. There's no evidence whatsoever that he is still a part of Sporcle (or that he's even been to the site since December 2009). Combine that with lack of clarity, lack of a source (These are definitively NOT the first 100 movies released by Criterion. They do appear to be the first 100 films Criterion released on DVD.) and other mistakes various commenters have noted and it's really sort of astonishing the powers that be at Sporcle would choose this quiz for publication.

	When I saw this quiz, I was beyond excited since I thought my quiz had been selected. I did ths quiz better (hopefully) and created mine first in Sept 2009. http://www.sporcle.com/games/Alex40/criterion100

	The above two comments just reinforce my theory that Sporcle has become a game of favoritism and laziness. I love the website because it's a great concept, but it is poorly managed. I can be candid because they'll never bother to read any of our comments since they're so busy looking for new advertisers instead.
