Final recap at ~71:04 lists exactly 10 inductees. Maybes that did NOT make it: The Golden Child (Van's asterisk favorite), Beverly Hills Cop II, Harlem Nights, Bowfinger. Dolemite Is My Name won the final open slot over the maybes, chosen for career-significance rather than quality. Notable omission flagged by hosts: Life. All inductees are films; consensus picks (no single champion).
