i don't follow i guess the way i thought about it was this (to use your example): if every film gets 1 point, we're just evaluating 'which good films has everyone here seen' imo we more or less do that now, right? i mean, 95% of a hypothetical full ballot of 20 films is already currently attributed...

nope. go for it. totes agree that the more chaotic image-filled chat-threads, the better

i can vouch for this guy

i'm personally [...] done so while the scoring overhaul section of my previous post solely addresses the option of automatically including #1s, that's not necessarily an endorsement of that system. i'm also open to diff point distros. just wanted to clarify though that i'm not set on auto-including...

some things: ofc we'll go back to 1895; no reason not to, especially if we're doing it this go 'round; with that being said, the poll for '95 (heh) won't pop up in cycle 2.0 for quite a while, since it's one of the two final polls for cycle 1.0 i've completed a tentative reordering (will tinker, as ...

wanna watch the as tears go by take my breath away clip sooo bad but haven't seen the film and just feel it's the type of clip that needs to be seen in the context of the whole flick...

picked up witcher 3 a couple months back, played it for a handful of hours, haven't picked it up since. for one thing, it's a button masher; the term 'fight mechanics' would be a massive overstatement (seriously, skyrim plays like a tactical strategizing chess-like beast in comparison). and while th...

alice doesn't live here anymore (martin scorsese)
outrage beyond (takeshi kitano)
outrage coda (takeshi kitano)
eyes of a stranger (ken wiederhorn)

eyes of a stranger (ken wiederhorn) actually... kinda...... great.........? slowburn that pays off. genuinely tense in the second half (haven't been on the edge of my seat like that for a while); cool kitschy lowkey '80s horror first half does the job; lots of buildup. jj leigh was talented from the...

wondering if i should go into full-on troll-mode here......

but seriously guys, if we banded together, and made a collective list of garbage, and each of us submitted it accordingly, we could rig this mamajama

But I still think that the great Asian directors are Japanese who knew rivette was a weeaboo? but i have trouble defining a generation (i.e. the taiwanese new wave, or new taiwanese cinema) basically by two filmmakers. beyond hou and yang, i'm not certain who else would be considered a major figure...

i feel like a kid being dropped off by my dad for the first day of school

hope y'all like your polls fundamentally flawed, wildly inconsistent, and oh so obviously rigged

there’s some real shit to be had amidst the heightened cartoonish antics, which is something to behold, since it’s so sparingly achieved. also, helps to think that jerry was basically doing silent films, except the volume’s notched up to a 10

x2 curious about this as well

The [...] of course. curious about your opinion of hou/rivette. i've seen basically zero rivette (one short, i think), but most of hou's filmog. can certainly understand how hou might not click - he doesn't for me every time (i seriously need to rewatch goodbye south, goodbye cuz it's rated so high...

completed kitano's outrage trilogy; would rank as follows: 1. outrage beyond ; 2. outrage coda ; 3. outrage ; but overall, this was a poor man's (to's) election duo. had kitano taken the three separate films, and turned them into a single 3hr opus, it coulda been pretty grand. as individual films, i...

alice doesn't live here anymore (martin scorsese) depending on whether that was a sad happy ending, or a happy sad ending, this was either really disappointing, or really good...? if sad happy, then unfortunately the entire purpose of the movie gets upended with that one fateful decision; but if hap...

without considering anything whatsoever, i agree with lota. whoever comes up with another idea next will get my vote

the lack of frampton comes alive! jokes in here is seriously disheartening
