I guess I am sort of confused because I thought you could back more than two films to fill the slots. It was just that, ultimately, only two films would make it. So, which films are in the running? Or is it still The Raven and The Last Man on Earth?

You can back any number of films you want. There is NO restriction on the number of backings. I haven't mentioned anywhere that you can back two films ONLY.

We are going to SELECT two films, and then move to the Honorable Mentions.

Right now we are in the process of agreeing (unanimously or majority-wise) for The Raven and The Last Man on Earth, which have the most backings, for the final two spots of the top 22.

You can support that, or you can post your own chosen films to contest those two above.

That's why in order to avoid confusion, and not to pile everything up at the same time, I haven't moved to the Honorable Mentions YET. Members keep jumping the gun even before it's fired, and that's what is causing all the confusion.

I repeat, right now we are in the process of selecting TWO films to join the selected TWENTY for the TOP 22 for the 1960s. I haven't opened the debate/discussion for the Honorable Mentions yet.

Do you stand by those choices in your post above?

Okay, I think I understand. I am fine with those two choices, but I will keep my backings. That is okay? To back films and okay the selected choices.

Sure.

So, you support the 2 choices for the final 22, and put forth your chosen films for Honorable Mentions?

Yes.............

Okay.

Final call for the two films, The Last Man on Earth and The Raven, which have the most backings to be included in the top 22. I have received FOUR "Aye"s so far, and since we have at least 10 members involved in the process, I will need at least 2-3 more "Aye"s to push them into the final 22.

Then we can start short-listing our Honorable Mentions.

All in agreement?

Does anyone disagree & have their own choices to contest those 2 films above?

Sorry, I naturally call people hes, especially when profile names are not the people's real names. I, generally, try to avoid using the adverb of he and she here, but I accidentally used it. Anyway, sorry about that.

No need to be sorry, I do the same thing, actually :cool:

For the Final 22, I'd also like to back The Brides of Dracula, which I've always considered the best Hammer film.

We haven't heard from quite a few folk. I think UK film Day of the Triffids is a better film, I still hope for more input/votes.

Aye...Ok to move on.

We now have FOUR films in the fray for the final 2 Top spots - The Brides of Dracula, The Last Man on Earth, The Little Shop of Horrors and The Raven.

We can select only TWO out of the FOUR films with backings, for our final 22. The Raven and The Last Man on Earth now see competition for their spots, although they have FIVE "Aye"s in their favor till now.

Do I see anyone else strongly supporting any TWO out of the FOUR films above? Although, one more "Aye" in favor of our original TWO (Raven & Last Man on Earth) will seal their places.
