The Grey Zone

Aren't Phone Booth, Irreversible, and 28 Days Later all 2003 films?

As much as I love Irreversible, I consider it a 2002 film, but it was released in the US in March of 2003. I don't know why Phone Booth is on the list. And was May released in 2002 or 2003?

My auto is Talk To Her

And nominates Y Tu Mama Tambien, it was released in March of 2002.

Yeah, IRREVERSIBLE was released in America this year in March, but I consider it a 2002 film (the best film of 2002 actually), and seeing 28 DAYS LATER and MAY on the list, I nominated it. IRREVERSIBLE is my fifth favorite film of all time, and I didn't feel right not nominating it when it is a 2002 film that was released to the US in 2003. If 28 DAYS LATER and MAY are in (all should be IMO), it should be too.

Well, there is always the Best of 2003 Tournament...

And Black Hawk Down is a 2001 film. It's one of my favorites, but should not be in the tournament according to the guidelines.

I'm fine with whatever Jim wants though.
