Beware the Docs of March (Possible Options)

The bigger, badder and more bizarre bastard son of my original Beware the Docs of March Marathon 1 list.

This is a huge work in progress list of WANTED TO SEE docus, or ones I've not logged here at Letterboxd or my own little blog cultdb. Some I'll no doubt view before the next set of 31 films are picked, plus many I'll never see.

Thanks to the usual IRC suspects for their kind help in suggestions, the list is based on the following sources (while I make no lies about stealing from massively).
