TWELVE films have made it in, by a vote percentage of at/over 50%.

We need to select EIGHT more, preferably from the DEBATABLE section. If everyone is in agreement, we can toss in those films which have scored 5 votes and 4 votes, which are eight in number, and thus we get our chosen top 20. Or, we can debate over the other films, pick up those which are lower in the vote list with some solid backing, and hammer out the 20 in that way.

Let's hear 'em.
