Coming up shortly! Btw, I read 'midnight, May 15th' as being midnight tomorrow, not midnight tonight, if you get what I mean?

Okay, sent. I actually ended up with too many films that I wanted to put on the list, but I think it's a solid ballot in the end.

Yeah, I goofed there--meant midnight tonight, which is more accurately the 14th.

Yeah, I had about eight that I finally decided to cut, so I didn't end up giving a lot of films 1 or 2 points.

It's coming! After dinner + walking the dogs, I'm watching one more road movie, just in time to squeeze the ballot in before midnight.

One more road movie for the road...

Voted with three mins to spare. In my haste, I forgot the points breakdown but the one you quoted to me upthread works.

Here's a surprise: the actor to appear in the most number of films on my ballot is Randy Quaid.

Thanks, everyone. I'll get images ready the next couple of nights, then do #40-21 on Wednesday, #20-1 on Thursday. Nineteen ballots, so just missed 20. I won't start embedding text into images until tomorrow night; I'm working from an easily updateable spreadsheet, so if any ballots show up overnight or through the day tomorrow, I'll count them.

Really looking forward to the images in the countdown! Realised I forgot Something Wild on my ballot so hoping others didn't.

Something Wild was one of the ones I cut. Kind of a Sophie's Choice with each of them.

Sent!

Which was the elusive 20th ballot I was hoping for--thanks...#41-50 are strong, so I'll do #50-31 on Wednesday, #30-11 on Thursday, and the Top 10 on Friday. I want to do it during the day, which'll mean posting from work; the posts will be half-an-hour apart, but I'll get everything set up ahead of time so I can work that.
