* Plus an extra 10 points for the first person who hits upon the two movies that I haven't seen on this list, or my two favorite movies from the list*


Is that list a suggestion or is it fact. I have two of those on my shelf and can spin them tomorrow if not sooner.


Uhhhhhhh, is this a trick question? i don't know, Rogue just asked me to be a judge like a day ago, so i said yes. i kind of just referred to his list for point assignment and went chronological? Do i get to pick the points? if so i'm changing them because everyone has already seen Life is Beautiful and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (Haha. $10 Those are the two on your shelf? Was I right?) However, if i assign the points there will be bias towards my fave two, and give them away, so maybe someone else assign points according to obscurity and access to the titles, so that my bonus points for faves and unseens don't get affected? What thread should i post in? Someone really has to explain my role and the rules a bit better to me, I already had to go to the corner store to buy a new pack of red pens I went through the otherones so quickly yesterday with all the penalties i've been dishing out to the participants. Don't worry, I know you guys *feel* like I'm here to make this a torturous experience, but let me assure you, you're not just *feeling* it....its true. :wink:

Nope. (or by next week, the second half of that one will be a nope). but you can't guess torri, this is for participants and when they post their short review i will let them know if they struck dolce gold.

Dolce. Bonus point lists can be posted in the "Announcements" thread. You assign point values however you feel is the best way.

:oops:

Wow, I am an easy read. :razz:

In my defense, they are both great films. But more importantly (to me anyway), great dvds.

I do own a couple dozen Best Foreign nominees though.

nope, you're not easy to read, but all of America sure is. not that I'm grouping your foreign film consumption with the rest of America's but, actually, uh, i kinda am. Which nominees do you have. Amelie? City of God (well that one is a bit of a technicality)? Hero? and possibly Central Station?
