In every round we tend to present films for consideration, and it sort of doubles as our selections. We just naturally do this regardless of the round type.

Hopefully folks read all the posts before they really select their 2 choices for 21-22. Straker presented a great film out of nowhere. I'd actually make the suggestion we embrace what we do naturally -- by announcing a presentation of suggestions period, and after that, then follow up with asking folks two pick their 21 & 22.

I reckon I can vote or back films when and how I want to, and the fact I haven't said anything yet, doesn't mean I haven't read what other people have posted.


Good grief.

Hammerfan's question has made you confused. Why would the process be changed at the final steps of our project?

We are backing films right now. Voting period has finished a long time back, when you sent in 22 choices to me through PM from the Master List.

The order of events :-

1 - Master List of a decade posted.
2 - Top 20/22 films selected and sent via PM. (voting process)
3 - Second Master List of compiled choices posted.
4 - First debate for backings in order to finalise the 20/22.
5 - Second debate through re-posting of second Master List to find 2 more films.
6 - Debate for Honorable Mentions.
7 - End of all debates.
8 - Sticky to be posted.


I was clarifying to her that she can back a film she voted for (in her top 22 PM to me) ONCE, in any of the subsequent debates/discussions above.

All added.

Looks like we have quite a few contenders (as underlined) for those final 2 spots in the top 24.

Ginger Snaps is the frontrunner here, with the maximum number of backings, followed by Little Otik, Hard Candy and The Orphanage.

Keep the thoughts coming, folks.


You vote for those films which are your choices (like the 20 you sent me via PM).
You back those films which you feel are the best, regardless of them being your choices or somebody else's.

I'll back Battle Royale. I believe it to be an important and influential film. Also a really great film.

Done.

Quite a number of films have received 2 backings, so I am not underlining them all. Only those with 3 or more backings have been underlined - Ginger Snaps has 4, while the other 3 films have 3 each.

Keep the flow going.

Ah. Gotcha.

I'll back:

Final Destination (2000)
Ginger Snaps (2000)

Now that Little Otik appears to have wrapped up at least an honourable mentions spot, I'll add my backing to;

The Devils Backbone
Battle Royale

Also gonna have one last throw of the dice on Shadow of the Vampire..... This is John Malkovich playing FW Murnau and Willem Dafoe play Max Schreck only Schreck turns out to be a real life vampire, specifically employed by the maniacal and obsessive Murnau, in order to bring his picture 'Nosferatu' to life. If that doesn't peek your interest right there I don't know what will! Its tongue in cheek dark humour, but it also has some weight behind it asking how far our creative minds will push boundaries to create art. Willem Dafoe puts in a career best performance and Malkovich is typically menacing as the obsessive Murnau. Fans of Nosferatu should love this movie, but there is enough depth for anyone to get something out of it.

Here's a short scene, give it a watch, this is real quality writing and acting on display;



Promise that's the last time I mention it!!

Looks like Ginger Snaps will be our 21st chosen film.

Two other contenders have sprung up - Battle Royale and Final Destination.
