This has been asked before, but I wanted a list of all the films in all the series. (Not necessarily in one place--this is just a convenient start.)
Now that there's a respectable list, I don't know whether to focus on the filmography or make it more like a forum dashboard. Until someone convinces me one way or the other, it'll be an inconsistent combination of both.
Feel free to post corrections, additions, comments, suggestions, flames, etc.
