If necessary, prioritize Waves.

I'd like an extra day or two myself.

Cherish, Friday, 3 April 2020 14:52 (four years ago) link

everything i've seen/heard about waves makes me certain it would be on my worst of the year

devvvine, Friday, 3 April 2020 14:55 (four years ago) link

So mote it be - ballots due on Tuesday.

Huh. I thought the characters were messy and complicated and real. And I didn't have much room to object, honestly -- I was continually pulled in, overwhelmed.

Cherish, Friday, 3 April 2020 16:02 (four years ago) link

xp - thanks for the extra time

Miami weisse (WmC), Friday, 3 April 2020 16:10 (four years ago) link

Are we expecting confirmation emails Y/N?

or something, Friday, 3 April 2020 20:49 (four years ago) link

re: Waves, neither worst nor at all best -- it won't make it onto my top 20.

Compiling this now.

xyzzzz__, Friday, 3 April 2020 21:13 (four years ago) link

Ballot sent.

xyzzzz__, Friday, 3 April 2020 21:34 (four years ago) link

I'll send confirmation as I tally.

donald failson (sic), Friday, 3 April 2020 21:59 (four years ago) link

Thanks for the extension, sic

Dan S, Friday, 3 April 2020 22:02 (four years ago) link

the Brazilian film Invisible Life that won the un certain regard award last year was released today on prime video

Dan S, Friday, 3 April 2020 22:14 (four years ago) link

there were a lot of changes of tone in Waves

Dan S, Saturday, 4 April 2020 00:27 (four years ago) link

I liked that

Dan S, Saturday, 4 April 2020 00:34 (four years ago) link

just saw Greener Grass (available to rent on youtube). i know a couple of you have it as one of the year's worst but i personally loved it and was very amused the entire time. watch if you like unrestrained surrealism of a particularly gaudy hue. or (as tt said) todd solondz. or bunuel at his wackiest. or chris morris' 'jam'. or idk that tim robinson show (but this is imo much better)

ban laggy jazzer (imago), Saturday, 4 April 2020 23:38 (four years ago) link

on Hulu for subscribers.

donald failson (sic), Sunday, 5 April 2020 00:15 (four years ago) link

I loved Greener Grass! So strange, but it hit me just right. Very funny and sad.

Cherish, Sunday, 5 April 2020 00:33 (four years ago) link

The Cave is a 2019 film, no? What with the Oscar nomination and everything.

Frederik B, Sunday, 5 April 2020 09:25 (four years ago) link

are you trying to start fights with yourself now? vote for everything you want to now, the internet might not exist or we could all be dead of capitalism next year

donald failson (sic), Sunday, 5 April 2020 11:12 (four years ago) link

If people are voting for it now, I'll vote for it now, if people want to vote for it next year, I'll vote for it next year. I'm amicable like that.

It's split up in Denmark, it won one award, but us critics can't vote for it until next year.

Frederik B, Sunday, 5 April 2020 11:30 (four years ago) link

Stop trying to read the other kids’ answers, keep your eyes on your own worksheet.

donald failson (sic), Sunday, 5 April 2020 11:49 (four years ago) link

That is so so wrong. Everyone on here should copy answers from other kids. Specifically me, you should all copy my answers.

Frederik B, Sunday, 5 April 2020 11:55 (four years ago) link

Defeats the purpose of a poll

silby, Sunday, 5 April 2020 15:23 (four years ago) link

ffs

silby, Sunday, 5 April 2020 15:23 (four years ago) link

Voted!

Cherish, Monday, 6 April 2020 02:04 (four years ago) link

just watched Nightingale, thought it was interesting but not best of the year

Dan S, Monday, 6 April 2020 02:09 (four years ago) link

Reminder that new ballots are due tomorrow. (If anyone who has already submitted wants to revise, just reply to your previous email.) Plenty of film thread regulars are yet to file, from whom it would be good to hear.

donald failson (sic), Monday, 6 April 2020 20:58 (four years ago) link

i'm comin'

brooklyn suicide cult (Dr Morbius), Monday, 6 April 2020 21:28 (four years ago) link

Had to look that up--got something similar in my e-mail. Make sure you get it right, everyone.

clemenza, Tuesday, 7 April 2020 12:23 (four years ago) link

We're doing some last-minute watching today - hopefully it'll still be fine to submit this evening. Please advise if otherwise and we'll hasten

I've managed to list 34 films, so I'm nearly there.

Frederik B, Tuesday, 7 April 2020 15:35 (four years ago) link

gonna send a ballot now

That was a reply to Whiney's already-answered question - your note was just a gentle tease about yr late profession.

All votes received should have confirmation emails now.

donald failson (sic), Tuesday, 7 April 2020 19:06 (four years ago) link

I just voted :) My lists are so weird every year. I don't know why it's so much harder for me to make a film list than an album list. Hoping to see my #1 on the list, though it's a longshot.
