I just think titles like "The Kid", "The War of the Worlds", The Iron Horse", "Twentieth Century", "The Lost Weekend" and several other should have been put on this registry decades ago. But that's only my opinion which may not count in the film industry.

No DOOM today, DOOM tomorrow. There's always a DOOM tomorrow.
