The initial backings/negations stay.
Remember, we are here to select
TWO films from the remaining ones from the
DEBATABLE section onwards.
The "In The Cut" section is NOT for debate.
Once that is done, we can proceed to select
SIX films from the rest for our Honorable Mentions.
OR, if everyone is in joint agreement, we can select TWO films from the DEBATABLE section (with 3 votes each), and proceed to finalise the rest of the 3-voters into our Honorable Mentions. which are FIVE in number.
The 6th film can be the animated short which has 2 votes AND 2 backings behind it.
OR we can go the old-fashioned way and debate till we get our chosen films.
Either way, let's hear your say, folks.
