Source is BOM and 2009 will be updated with the final figures later.

Awards:
Spoiler: show
Best Number [Position] : This does not include the box office run of the movie. It tells how much a movie is loved among KJer's. Pour in all your emotions here. [Position] = 1 to 5. Per position 5 movies and there are 5 positions = 25 movies
Worst Number [Position] : This also does not include the box office run of the movie. It tells how much the movie grossing that much is hates among KJer's. All swearing's allowed here :) . [Position] = 1 to 5. Per position 5 movies and there are 5 positions = 25 movies

Most Impressive Number [Position]: This includes box office run, awards, ratings and critics. It tells how impressive the movie ran and why it is best at that position. [Position] = 1 to 5. Per position 5 movies and there are 5 positions = 25 movies
Most Unimpressive Number [Position]: This includes box office tanks, no awards, bitter ratings/critics. It tells how unworthy the movie ran and still managed to sneak to that position. [Position] = 1 to 5. Per position 5 movies and there are 5 positions = 25 movies

The number of positions an year holds in the best/worse categories will decide this automatically. 1 Year will be selected though there could be a tie as well :)
Best Year (Selected) : from Best Number [Position] having 25 movies.
Most Impressive Year (Selected) : from Most Impressive Number [Position] 25 movies
Disappointing Year (Selected) - from Worst Number [Position] 25 movies
Unimpressive Year (Selected) : from Most Unimpressive Number [Position] 25 movies

These set will be decided based on the individual nominations by KJer's. 5 nominations per award
Best Year (Nominated)
Most Impressive Year (Nominated)
Disappointing Year (Nominated)
Unimpressive Year (Nominated)


Rules:
Spoiler: show
Let us take an example from each category
1. Best Number 2: Total 30 movies from each year compete. We decide 10 best by chat without any numbering and then put them for voting. The best five will be selected among them according to the number of votes
2. Best Year (Selected): Let's assume 1980
Best Number 1: The Empire Strikes Back - position 5
Best Number 2: 9 to 5 - position 4
Best Number 3: Stir Crazy - position 3
Best Number 4: Airplane! - position 2
Best Number 5: Any Which Way You Can - position 1
Then 1980 is the Best Year. If we have a tie then we see the positions in the chronological order in case of tie 1980 is the worst case scenario.
3. Best Year (Nominated) : 30 years compete. We decide 10 by chat without any number and then put them for voting. The best five will be selected.
A movie cannot be in both Top 5 Best and Worst Category. This is the reason we have a chat session to narrow down to 10 and then vote.

Well then hope things are clear. If they are not it will be become clearer once we start the game :)

Worst Number 1:
The First 3 positions are finalized. 5 movies(above) are battling out for the last 2 positions. Please vote your 2 worst or unlikely number 1 (yearly) box office collector from the contenders.

1. How the Grinch Stole Christmas(2000)
2. Three Men and a Baby (1987)
3. Spider-Man 3(2007)

Five Worst #1 films (not all bad, though)

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone
How the Grinch Stole Christmas
Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace (Wow, 1999-2001 had a shitty streak of #1 films of the year)
Three Men and a Baby
E.T.: The Extra-Terrestrial

I don't think E.T. is bad. It is just insanely overrated. Never thought of it as much more than an average kids flick.

Oh, I'm well aware. I just think E.T. deserves to be on the "best" list, if anything.

So we now know which is going to Top the Worst Number ONE box-office collector list :)

Looks like the first 3 ranks are pretty much locked. The movies that are at potential risk of ranking poll for rank 4 and rank 5 are in BOLD. Though one more vote may change things dramatically.

SEND YOUR NOMINATIONS FOR MOST UNLIKELY NUMBER ONE!! :thumbsup:

Hey Alex are you changing your votes? Because the category has yet not changed. It is just that placing it as Worst Number ONE rises many questions so I am putting a more pleasing word here :)
