 Re: WoKJ Takes On Yahoo's Ultimate Best Picture Poll (Day One)
Loyal, you should forbid voting if the person has not seen all films. Default votes suck - that's the reason why Religulous almost won Best Documentary here at WOKJ.

Well I've seen both The Silence of the Lambs and The French Connection. So take that Arthur.

 Re: WoKJ Takes On Yahoo's Ultimate Best Picture Poll (Day One)
Why would I want to see anything made before 1980??? Ordinary People is the first Oscar movie that I pay attention to.

 Re: WoKJ Takes On Yahoo's Ultimate Best Picture Poll (Day One)
I've seen most of these films. I only haven't seen All about Eve on these two lists. Should still be a close race between Silence and Godfather 2. I was tempted to pick Silence since it is one of my favorite films but went with Godfather 2.

 Re: WoKJ Takes On Yahoo's Ultimate Best Picture Poll (Day One)
The Silence of the Lambs All About Eve I have seen all of them except for Amadeus, and my love for All About Eve is big enough that I feel confident voting for it.
