Were lists ever submitted for this? I've been having so much fun looking through the really informative 20's, 30's, 40's and 70's list discussions (plus the genre discussions and the defence of list orphans). If this was never completed, maybe it's time to resurrect it?

Yep, though it'll get a new reiteration in about a year. It used to be that the List Project threads got very little discussion until after the face in the Panda Thread and only recently (really with the 80s List, I'd say) became the hotbeds of discussion they now are

'50s list should probably run from Feb to Aug 2012, at which point the '60s will live again!

Already prepping for the '50s list. Gonna check out even the most frighteningly awful looking of Wellman (I have an instinctive flight response to John Wayne on the cover of a DVD).

I try to keep my old lists updated by adding a supplementary list below them of new 'must-include' films to consider for the next iteration. It's extremely haphazard, since I don't necessarily remember to add a blindingly great new film when I see it, but I've already got 23 such titles in waiting for my 60s list, so this is going to be interesting.

Not to play favorites with decades or anything, but if the world ends before we get through the '60s, I'm going to be extremely disappointed.

Also, I am of the opinion that these old threads should be at the very least renamed once the new ones come into play so as to avoid confusion

That's what I was concerned about too. Maybe turn this into a previously on the '60s project thread and a few weeks after the new '60s list is done add it to this one.

I'm on it. I figure I'll just stick the year in the parentheses.
