Doubling the Canon 2020 Update - Results

[Angel]

I agree with you on English titles and clickable hyperlinks but I didn't find an easy way to automate the process and I don't have enough free time this year to do it manually. You know, I'm sick of doubleclick+enter to turn urls into hyperlinks.

[flip]

if it helps, you can make all the text links into hyperlinks in about twenty seconds, in Excel or Google Sheets. using the DTC spreadsheet:

- in cell F2, type the following:

=HYPERLINK(D2)

- you should see the url from cell D2 in cell F2 now, but it will be a clickable hyperlink

- copy cell F2, and paste into every cell in column F and you're done

[greennui]

Need Sally back to vote for Dwoskin and others.

I think I'm pretty much done with my nominee viewings unless something comes up.

The highlights:

Mourning Rock (Filippos Koutsaftis, 2000)
Baxter, Vera Baxter (Marguerite Duras, 1977)
Nainsukh (Amit Dutta, 2010)
Hollywood (Kevin Brownlow, 1980)
Singing Behind Screens (Ermanno Olmi, 2003)
Let's go with Pancho Villa! (Fernando de Fuentes, 1936)
The Little Mermaid (Ivan Aksenchuk, 1968)

[Angel]

Let's go with Pancho Villa! (Fernando de Fuentes, 1936)

That needs Jerry, its godfather a lustrum ago...

[MrCarmady]

Just sent my ballot off, only seen 130 but either I'm very generous or it's a good bunch of films because my average rating was nearly as high as Silga's. Will squeeze a few more in, have had a few on my radar for ages anyway so this is the push I need.

This is very funny, BTW, who dislikes that movie? It clearly belongs in the canon for its historical significance but it's hard to rate it beyond that.

[greennui]

There's a few posters on icm who reckons 20th century cinema is obsolete.

[Evelyn Library P.I.]

L'arrivée d'un train à La Ciotat is one of the greatest movies ever made!

[Silga]

because my average rating was nearly as high as Silga's.

It was the first time rating films for DtC and I was kind of lost in translation on how to place ratings in 0-6 rating system. Then again most of the films I've seen from the list were very good.

The only two films that I rated 1 were Signs (2002) and The Limits of Control (2009).

[MrCarmady]

There's a few posters on icm who reckons 20th century cinema is obsolete.

What does that mean for 19th century cinema, though?

Agreed on the rating system, Silga, that wasn't a dig and I'm always quite a generous rater myself.

[rischka]

finally sent my ballot today 478 ratings (i think) may have missed a few as i got tired of searching the names voted at least 10 of the unvoted nominees too

will try to watch a few more for auxiliary ballot

[mesnalty]

Just submitted my ratings!

L'arrivée d'un train à La Ciotat

This is very funny, BTW, who dislikes that movie? It clearly belongs in the canon for its historical significance but it's hard to rate it beyond that.

I also dislike this movie, and I don't see any historical significance either.

[Angel]

Last call, ladies and gentlemen! 24 hours left to submit your ballot.

[rischka]

i'm gonna try to cram 3 movies lol

[MrCarmady]

For the follow-up ballot, do we just send you a list of films that we didn't rate the first time round, or do we send the full updated ballot?

[rischka]

what i've done in the past is send the full ballot with ONLY the additional films marked

[Angel]

For the follow-up ballot, do we just send you a list of films that we didn't rate the first time round, or do we send the full updated ballot?

As you wish.

Some people don't seem to get much joy out of watching films.

[rischka]

i feel like i've finally found the right balance as i used to consistently rate too high. still i think i gave maybe two 0's

[Angel]

What is a 'Write-in' ballot? Can I still send something this weekend?

Today, no later.

'Write-in' ballot is a skeletal ballot, just a few titles + ratings.
