Around half of my top 10 will probably make the top 100. I think I'll be the sole voter on one of them.

Eric, have you received the C-man ballot yet?

Half of my top 10 will definitely be in the top 100 unless there's something very wrong with you lot. The other half I have no idea.

Ballot received!
Will finally start entering in the last-minute ballots into the spreadsheet this week, which means I might be nice and leave room for a few more.

Yay, thank you! I'm up to G, so should be sendable within the next couple of hours.

Well that was optimistic. Most brutal ballot yet! So many arbitrary and/or ruthless decisions!
Looking forward to The Hobbit getting the recognition it deserves through the write-in vote.

having just seen it, i would now like to go back and add Jacques Tati's PlayTime to my list because wowowowowowowowowowowowow
― davey, Tuesday, 22 June 2021 10:58 (two years ago) link
Yes! Funny and poignant and perfect. It's in my top 10.
― Cherish, Tuesday, 22 June 2021 12:31 (two years ago) link
Top 5 over here. Been fortunate to see it in the theater a couple of times.
― Chris L, Tuesday, 22 June 2021 13:12 (two years ago) link
At TIFF, I saw a special screening of Playtime that was moved to another venue so they could show a 70mm print.
― Halfway there but for you, Tuesday, 22 June 2021 13:29 (two years ago) link
Using a VPN, I managed to get myself a free trial for Criterion Channel and watched Playtime. I found it very funny in places and enjoyed it but I think I'd need to see it a few more times and preferably in a cinema to truly get it.
― Pfunkboy AKA (Oor Neechy), Tuesday, 22 June 2021 14:38 (two years ago) link
i'm glad that dunkey introduced so many people to playtime

Tati intended for it to be shown on a loop, so people could come in and out and rewatch any amount of it at random.
― bobo honkin' slobo babe (sic), Tuesday, 22 June 2021 19:44 (two years ago) link
i could ramble on and on about how beautifully that movie uses glass as a motif. very neat that it was intended as a loop.
i am reminded that i'd like to read this book, "Shard Cinema" by Evan Calder Williams, which muses extensively on things (like glass) shattering and fragmenting on screen.

Playtime was a really memorable film, was in my favorite 25
recently watched Jeanne-Pierre Melville's Army of Shadows for the first time and thought it was fantastic! If I were voting again I think I would put into my ballot in place of Le Samouraï
― Dan S, Wednesday, 23 June 2021 01:59 (two years ago) link
Sorry, everyone: Playtime topped my "Geez, I hope this doesn't win" list. If it does, fine.
― clemenza, Wednesday, 23 June 2021 02:03 (two years ago) link
I really like the earlier Tati films, especially Mon Oncle; found Playtime hit the same note over and over again. It's not really funny, either, which I'm sure some people think is the point (or beside the point).
― Halfway there but for you, Wednesday, 23 June 2021 02:08 (two years ago) link
I don't have a "hope this doesn't win" list, I should put some thought into that.
― Halfway there but for you, Wednesday, 23 June 2021 02:09 (two years ago) link
I liked PlayTime a lot more once I decided that it was okay that I didn't think it was actually that funny.
