Blue Velvet -- a montage.

i'm excited to share my ballot because it features jurassic park as the #23 greatest movie of all time, as the sole representative of steven spielberg's career

Karl Malone, Sunday, 30 May 2021 15:34 (three years ago) link

that is otm and 23 is also the number of chromosomes in mr dna (who is human dna this is canon)

Pfizer the pharma chip (wins), Sunday, 30 May 2021 15:36 (three years ago) link

DINO DNA!

Karl Malone, Sunday, 30 May 2021 15:36 (three years ago) link

*pairs of chromosomes, fuck you

Pfizer the pharma chip (wins), Sunday, 30 May 2021 15:37 (three years ago) link

whenever i think back about mr dna, for some reason i can only visualize the paperclip helper from microsoft office

Karl Malone, Sunday, 30 May 2021 15:39 (three years ago) link

lol he is totally clippy

I’m wondering if people will be more mad at me for having Robocop as my #1 here than ILM was on the Doom poll for not being into his older stuff.

FRAUDULENT STEAKS (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Sunday, 30 May 2021 15:53 (three years ago) link

robocop is one of the best films in which over 100 people are shot on screen

Karl Malone, Sunday, 30 May 2021 15:56 (three years ago) link

i see that robocop only kills 28 in the first one, i will have to retract that

too low

i'm looking back at my list now and it appears to be the work of someone who did it in 20 minutes and had no idea what they were doing

Karl Malone, Sunday, 30 May 2021 16:01 (three years ago) link

there's no incorrect list, though. i'm excited to see what everyone's faves are

ILX in a nutshell

TCB in a flash

Mine literally involved mere minutes of selecting 125 from the noms list. (Maybe not quite, but it was all within 24 hours of noticing the thread *very* recently. One of these days decades I hope to grow more attentive to the ILE bit of ILX, lol.)

Nag! Nag! Nag!, Monday, 31 May 2021 01:18 (three years ago) link

Submitted a not-much-fussed-over ballot (didn't even get to 100 honorable mentions).

eatandoph (Neue Jesse Schule), Monday, 31 May 2021 03:38 (three years ago) link

Add Cherish and Dan S and braised cod to the list above.

(And Neue Jesse Schule, obv)

forgot to mention it in my email, but I meant for my first 25 to be ranked

Dan S, Monday, 31 May 2021 16:03 (three years ago) link

I threw together a ballot like 3-4 months ago that I've been hanging onto in case I unexpectedly caught the greatest thing I've ever seen between then and the deadline. So far that has not happened.

Not sure how many films are being counted down, but if it's 100 I think four of my Top 10 will place, while the other six probably won't get a second vote between them (one absolutely won't get a second).

clemenza, Tuesday, 1 June 2021 01:56 (three years ago) link

Sending mine right now!

Morley Timmons, Tuesday, 1 June 2021 02:55 (three years ago) link

I expect all of my top 25 to place

Karl Malone, Tuesday, 1 June 2021 03:00 (three years ago) link

Not joking

Karl Malone, Tuesday, 1 June 2021 03:00 (three years ago) link

Yeah

AP Chemirocha (James Redd and the Blecchs), Tuesday, 1 June 2021 03:02 (three years ago) link

2/3 regular film posters haven't posted their ballots from what I can see :-(

xyzzzz__, Tuesday, 1 June 2021 10:35 (three years ago) link

Tomorrow is loose, but I do expect to close the poll for real in a very narrow window of time.

i carry the torch for disco inauthenticity (Eric H.), Tuesday, 1 June 2021 12:26 (three years ago) link

Four more new ballots in the last day:

Morley Timmons
C. Crisso/McCain
(The Other) JD
off the dome

i carry the torch for disco inauthenticity (Eric H.), Tuesday, 1 June 2021 13:11 (three years ago) link

that last was me, noting that I had freestyled the list

bobo honkin' slobo babe (sic), Tuesday, 1 June 2021 13:32 (three years ago) link

LOL, ah got it.

i carry the torch for disco inauthenticity (Eric H.), Tuesday, 1 June 2021 13:38 (three years ago) link

terrible realisation i'd ommitted my renoir vote so have sent thru an updated one, hope that's ok!

devvvine, Tuesday, 1 June 2021 13:43 (three years ago) link

Always have time to add Renoir.

i carry the torch for disco inauthenticity (Eric H.), Tuesday, 1 June 2021 13:50 (three years ago) link

are we up to 50 yet?

A viking of frowns, (Camaraderie at Arms Length), Tuesday, 1 June 2021 13:57 (three years ago) link

freestyled the list

the top three are my real top three though! I expect one of them to get votes from other ppl

bobo honkin' slobo babe (sic), Tuesday, 1 June 2021 14:04 (three years ago) link

We're maybe 3 or 4 ballots shy of 50 total. Dropped a ping in the Criterion thread.

Did you send out an invite to Tony Macklin, founder of Film Heritage?
