I'm in too.

Box office records mean shit to me.

the 64 movies are chosen by me. It'll be a combination of my opinion and general consensus. For example, I did an Asian Movie tournament. Oldboy won. Now, I wouldn't put Oldboy in my top 64 movies list, but it won the Asian movie tournament, so I figure general opinion around here of it must be pretty high, so Oldboy will be in the tournament.

That's not a blanket rule, though. General opinion of The Beyond seems pretty high around here, too, and The Beyond will not be in the tournament.

I figure I'll divide it into 8 genres and pick 8 movies for each genre, so representation will be even.

I don't care about the box-office records, so box-office records will play no part in the selection one way or the other.

Super Troopers

Healthy dose of Kurosawa and Scorsese wouldn't hurt.

[The STE]

@ B, re: narrowing it down; you should try re-reading the thread.
