Anyway, blurbs have started coming in, and they're awesome. I really hope a couple more of you decide you want to jump in and be a part of this project. I know I'll probably get a few emails at 11:59pm on tuesday night. Hey, I do that shit myself with my taxes. I just really want everyone to participate. SO GET THOSE LISTS IN!!!

i'll wear the bowtie - but i won't dance . . . i have my limits


(p.s. i'm also willing to write blurbs if you need anyone else)

The Flayed One 06-26-2006 04:08 AM

TOMORROW IS THE LAST DAY TO MAIL YOUR LIST IN!!!

The_Return 06-26-2006 06:25 AM

My blurbs are sent:)

The Flayed One 06-26-2006 06:47 AM

Thanks. To others, I'm still figuring out the best way to hand out blurbs. I'm trying to work it out so that every person gets to write for one that was in their top 5. All blurb requests will be sent no later than Wednesday.

:D

LAST DAY TO MAIL IN TOP 25 LISTS!!!

GET THEM IN!

alkytrio666 06-27-2006 09:38 AM

Do I get to write a blurb? I wanna write a blurb.

The Flayed One 06-27-2006 09:46 AM

Everybody who submitted that didn't specifically ask not to will be asked to write a blurb. I'm still working on the best assignments possible between the lists I've gotten. Don't worry, alky, you'll be getting some requests very soon.

Very cool. Thank you.

P.S. I'm leaving for vacation tomorrow morning, so if you PM me and I don't respond, I'll need about a week or so. I'll write it as soon as I get back.

The Flayed One 06-27-2006 09:49 AM

Also, I'd like to take this opportunity to guilt-trip everyone who hasn't sent in a list. FOR SHAME!!!!

The good news is, you still have 10hrs to redeem yourself and contribute.

slasherman 06-27-2006 12:22 PM

:rolleyes: my list is sent...did you get it ?

The Flayed One 06-27-2006 12:38 PM

Yes. Thanks, Slasherman. I was hoping you could write the blurb for May.

A short review about a movie in your own words, S. :D

The Flayed One 06-28-2006 03:23 AM

Well, that's it. Voting is closed, thanks for everyone who participated. I'll pass out the rest of the blurbs today, and hopefully I can start posting the list late Friday night (at least 100-91)

Once again, thanks to everyone who sent in their lists. It's been a lot of fun, and I think you'll be happy with what we've created!

..do you :p ...I'm up for a game look at my signature

The Flayed One 06-28-2006 08:25 AM

Okay. Just to let you know about blurbs.

Please try to have them in by Friday. If not, I understand because of short notice. A lot of you have received requests already. I will probably ask you each for 1 more.

If it gets too late, and you haven't sent your blurbs in, I will rush some from myself or a few nice people who said they'd be willing to write trench warefare style if they have to.

Once again, thanks to all. Feel free to guess what you think the top 10 are going to be, or whether the list will cause slasherman to never post again!;)

Well, so long Slasherman. I don't much like that-film-which-cannot-be-named either, but most people seem to. It's pretty much a given.

Anyway, Flayed, I'll try to have my blurbs in tonight or tomorrow. I work long hours, but I'll do my best.

I'll get it together eventually.

Damn, for some reason I thought you said the end of the month. I guess it's just been slippin' my mind since I got this new job. Can you make one exception or is it all done and ready to go?

noctuary 06-29-2006 06:49 AM

My blurbs are sent. I tried to keep them fairly short, although god knows I could have gone on and on about at least two of those films. I didn't wanna turn it into a doctoral thesis though.

I can't wait to see how this turns out, and to read everyone else's stuff.

The Flayed One 06-29-2006 07:44 AM

Thanks. Man, some of you guys are blurb writing ninjas! I've gotten all different styles, from one sentence to a couple that I'm sending off to have bound before I read them ;)

If all goes well, tomorrow at around 9pm Eastern US time the first part of the list will be posted!

Zero 06-29-2006 01:45 PM

blurbs sent - - - and a big public THANK YOU to Flayed for organizing this piss up! I'm really looking forward to the results and think this has been an important event in HDC history!

mothermold 06-30-2006 01:57 AM

Blurbs sent and hats off to Flayed for organizing this little party.:cool:

The Flayed One 06-30-2006 04:02 AM

Your both very welcome. In about 10 hours, I'm going to retire to my parents' place out in the country for some th of July action, pop a cold one and get to putting this together.

Important!!!
I'm going to start posting the list (hopefully) later tonight. If you have comments on the list or you want to talk about your expectations, please use this thread or start another thread about it until the list is done. That way it doesn't seem like a jumbled mess.

Looking forward to it!
-Flayed

The_Return 06-30-2006 07:05 PM

Sure, get our hopes up why dont ya.

AUSTIN316426808 06-30-2006 09:45 PM

So 'Opera' is on the list?

Young opera singer who gets her chance when the star is gone. She's then stalked by a crazy fan who she's been dreaming about that wants her to himself.

Well doesn't that sound familiar.

The Flayed One 06-30-2006 10:06 PM

Hey, you all voted for it. Give me your honest opinion on it. I'm just doing the best my drunken self can.

By the way, thanks for everyone's support.
:D

GorePhobia 06-30-2006 10:12 PM

Hey no problem man.

I enjoyed writing blurbs for the movies I wrote them for. :)

Glad to see the list being made.

Looks pretty good so far.

Keep em coming.

The Flayed One 06-30-2006 10:40 PM

I'm doing what I can. We're into the 80's so far, but I'm seriously tired. It was like a mathematical nightmare deciding the final order for the bottom 100. However, I really appreciate everyone' support. I have blurbs still coming in by the minute. I'll plod along and add as needed. In the meantime, enjoy everyone!

The Flayed One 06-30-2006 11:44 PM

Okay! That's all you get tonight! Flayed fucking tired! Flayed sleep now! You talk about results so far. Flayed wake up and finish.

knife_fight 07-01-2006 12:37 AM

I'm really surprised that some of those don't have blurbs. in most cases, the ones I really love don't have a blurb, while the ones I'm a bit apathetic about do. unexpected, but not necessarily bad.

slasherman 07-01-2006 04:35 AM

...good so far...I'm still here

Every movie on the list has been assigned to someone. In the case of last night, I was tired & missed Jacob's Ladder, & I got LHotL from Austin after I went to bed. There are 2 or 3 people I haven't heard from at all that are starting to worry me. At the end of it, if they don't come through, I'll let someone else jump on the blurbs and write them so the entire list is filled. Anyways, back to work.;)
