Paul Lynde (in drag!) Don DeLuise exchange is grebt!

If it hadn’t been for me, this place would be closed on account of suicide and you’d all be out of a job.

Now watching the second Vertigo tribute in so many months.

Started it last night too! I've been watching Kubrick all week for a Zoomcast with some friends. (Watch out for my dad's cousin, Nick Dennis, one of the slaves--short Greek guy.)

Some of it must be lost in translation, Playtime is hilarious.

Nope. More like "lost in pacing."

So who you gonna call? The martini police (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Tuesday, 6 July 2021 13:12 (two years ago) link

(xpost) I called him a short Greek guy; Peter Ustinov says something like "He's small, but compact," then goes on to say he seems smaller than when in the gladiator ring. Ustinov's hilarious in Spartacus.

He and Olivier and Laughton are the best things about it.

Haven’t seen in forever. Don’t remember who is in the cast but I can velieve it.

Planck Generation (James Redd and the Blecchs), Tuesday, 6 July 2021 18:32 (two years ago) link

A laughton is nothing to sneeze at.

Planck Generation (James Redd and the Blecchs), Thursday, 8 July 2021 19:02 (two years ago) link

bump? (no pressure)

g simmel, Tuesday, 13 July 2021 20:27 (two years ago) link

Ah, the pressureless bump.

eric is giving everyone time to revise their ballots after seeing the new space jam

bart harley-jarvis cocker (voodoo chili), Tuesday, 13 July 2021 20:42 (two years ago) link

one of these days I'm going to do a pressurised bump, you won't know what's hit you

Houston, we are losing pressure in The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari. #OneThread

Planck Generation (James Redd and the Blecchs), Tuesday, 13 July 2021 21:57 (two years ago) link

when I think about the work involved in compiling these ballots, with no nomination list, I would not be surprised if it took quite a while

A viking of frowns, (Camaraderie at Arms Length), Tuesday, 13 July 2021 22:03 (two years ago) link

Yeah exactly.

Planck Generation (James Redd and the Blecchs), Tuesday, 13 July 2021 22:10 (two years ago) link

I think he's clearly giving those who have the Bergman box set a year to try get through it before voting.

Pfunkboy AKA (Oor Neechy), Tuesday, 13 July 2021 23:00 (two years ago) link

dang, my ballot sucks too much to request a tiny mod, but i'd have to put Hunger in there somewhere. sheesh louise.

Z_TBD (Karl Malone), Wednesday, 14 July 2021 00:18 (two years ago) link

I'll send mine now lol.

billstevejim, Thursday, 15 July 2021 15:52 (two years ago) link

It was kinda hard to tell whether a deadline actually happened so disregard my submission if it's easier.

billstevejim, Thursday, 15 July 2021 16:02 (two years ago) link

Nah, it's still valid. Honestly, I keep getting sidetracked and, yes, this poll is so all-encompassing that filling in ballots is taking about 10x as long as it has in the past.

Yeah, figured there was a combinatorial explosion in the amount of work to be done in this, the Mother, or Bitch Mother, to steal a phrase from Will Shortz, of All Polls.

The Mother and the POLL

Two Severins Clash (James Redd and the Blecchs), Thursday, 15 July 2021 16:17 (two years ago) link

Beware of the Holy POLL

Two Severins Clash (James Redd and the Blecchs), Thursday, 15 July 2021 16:19 (two years ago) link

Feel a bit weird wasting all this subcelsior material on the Ballot thread instead of the POLL thread.

Ali: Fear Eats the POLL

Chris L, Thursday, 15 July 2021 17:00 (two years ago) link

I like that better than the title I've had at the back of my mind: Tender Morbsies.

Lock thread!

Oh wait.

Two Severins Clash (James Redd and the Blecchs), Thursday, 15 July 2021 17:11 (two years ago) link

But not sure how that can be topped.

Two Severins Clash (James Redd and the Blecchs), Thursday, 15 July 2021 17:11 (two years ago) link

Maybe tweak it to be
ILE: Fear Eats the POLL
but that's about it.

Two Severins Clash (James Redd and the Blecchs), Thursday, 15 July 2021 21:44 (two years ago) link

very good!

Dan S, Thursday, 15 July 2021 23:37 (two years ago) link

I give it till Claude Rains breaks.

Two Severins Clash (James Redd and the Blecchs), Saturday, 17 July 2021 20:03 (two years ago) link

I lurk this forum probably once a day without ever really posting. I have been checking whether this poll has been posted everyday for the past four goddamn months. When am I going to get what’s owing to me ILE? When???

hrep (H.P), Sunday, 18 July 2021 10:53 (two years ago) link

And no I haven’t put in a ballot. I’m here to take not give.

not posting can also be a service to the community... so, so many ppl out there on the wider web would make the world a better place by not posting

davey, Sunday, 18 July 2021 15:48 (two years ago) link

i'll run it if someone sends me the results.

Yours in Sorrow, A Schoolboy: (forksclovetofu), Sunday, 18 July 2021 20:52 (two years ago) link

it's compiling the results that is taking time because no nominations list + long ballots + lots of voters, we should expect it to take a while

A viking of frowns, (Camaraderie at Arms Length), Sunday, 18 July 2021 21:05 (two years ago) link

That's the second time you've said that? There's a nominations list in the first 30 posts.

Andrew Farrell, Sunday, 18 July 2021 21:17 (two years ago) link

i'm out of town this week, but I'll tabulate it if somebody sends me the ballots!

Yours in Sorrow, A Schoolboy: (forksclovetofu), Sunday, 18 July 2021 21:22 (two years ago) link

nominations list was more of a "get started here" thing, every film ever made was available for voting xp

Clay, Sunday, 18 July 2021 21:23 (two years ago) link

If I've said this twice then how many times have people said something along the lines of "it's not a nomination list, it's a suggestion list" in the thread? Got to be twenty or so.

but also, "You who saw and didn't post, let You be cursed 10 times the amount than They that saw and They that posted, even if They were totally wrong"
