	Thank you for not making me spell Baadasssss correctly.

	The Wrestler is spelled incorrectly.

	You should accept just "THX" for the Lucas one. Well, not really, but that would sure make things easier, wouldn't it? Anyway, excellent game.

	Good quiz on your part, disappointing list on theirs. Lots and lots of omitted classics. Still, good to see my two favorite indies of all time (Pi and Lone Star) make Empire's list. I find it amusing, though, that a British magazine wouldn't include more UK indies. And no mention of anything from Samuel Fuller or Alex Cox? (No such list could ever be complete without "Shock Corridor" or "Repo Man") Sacrilege! (One suggestion: Include a link to the source web page.)

	And I just looked back and noticed the header, "Independent American Films". Someday I'll learn to look (or read) before I leap. That said, I still think leaving out Fuller and Cox makes the list something of a joke.

	Looking back, it's almost hard to believe that some of these classic films by A-list directors were actually indie films.
