SCI-FI! --- scfz genre poll
Re: SCI-FI! --- scfz genre poll
Heh. No matter what the limit is, it always seems like there's difficulty in deciding to leave out something, unless of course the limit is so big there isn't enough movies to fill it.
ok, let's plan to close this poll on tuesday next week, in seven days, but if anyone hasn't had a chance to post a ballot by then and still wants to, let me know, and i'll leave the poll open a bit longer.
oh cool! if that's the case, i'll fit in a few more. guess i shoulda simply asked for an extension myself originally, but my boy nrh came through
Was Lem's quote about both versions of SOLARIS, or just the Soderbergh version?nrh wrote: ↑Sat Oct 26, 2019 2:04 pm this always makes me think of the famous stanislaw lem quote regarding the two adaptations of solaris -
"Summing up, as Solaris‘ author I shall allow myself to repeat that I only wanted to create a vision of a human encounter with something that certainly exists, in a mighty manner perhaps, but cannot be reduced to human concepts, ideas or images. This is why the book was entitled “Solaris” and not Love in Outer Space.”
These matters are best disposed of from a great height. Over water.
here's full translation of his thoughts on both versions, both of which i genuinely like (he didn't really watch either but what he says is still interesting) - http://mustseecinema.com/stanislaw-lems ... oderbergh/
Many thanks for that, I'd been trying to find it. I too like both versions, but Lem's comment about his novel not being entitled "Love In Outer Space" has stuck in my memory about them.
These matters are best disposed of from a great height. Over water.
who cares what Lem has to say? he didn't direct those two films. Tarkovsky and Soderbergh did.

got my prelim list ready (sitting at sixty titles right now), but need tomorrow to get it finalized and tiered
how could I have forgotten that one!?!?!?
Needs to go on my list!
"I too am a child burned by future experiences, fallen back on myself and already suspecting the certainty that in the end only those will prove benevolent who believe in nothing." – Marran Gosov
i'm thinking about starting to tally this today, i'll definitely wait until tomorrow to factor in ballots from wba, greg and thoxans, since they've all mentioned they might be posting/editing. if anyone else wants to edit a posted ballot, last chance! (and please let me know you're doing that, or intend to do it)
one thing i forgot to ask - where would we slot something like masaaki yuasa's kaiba? a limited episode tv series with a single auteur (who directed or co-directed every episode)? it would be in my top tier if eligible but totally understand if it's not.
i don't know anything about it, but if you think it should be eligible (in general, short-run tv series with a single director would be), i'll be happy to count votes for it!
cool, just updated list to add it to the first tier.

Eh, i could keep making changes for weeks, but might as well call it and go with what I've got now. Glad NRH had Trouble in Mind listed so I could add it, but the more I looked at other people's lists, the more stuff I remembered I would liked to add to my own, so I'll just wait until the big list is posted to go over other lists for all the stuff I missed.

Oops, fixed now.crypt trotsky wrote: ↑Thu Dec 05, 2019 7:34 pmumbugbene - i'm not sure from how you formatted your ballot how many tiers you wanted to have? it's in three tiers right now, but they're very unequal in size, which makes scoring difficult.
tdm, were you planning to add to or rank your ballot? i'm mid-tally right now, i'll save yours for lasttwodeadmagpies wrote: ↑Tue Oct 22, 2019 9:51 pm i'l be watching more than that though, so flip, mid to pushing out the end of november would be great
thanks flip for waiting, i'm ashamed to say i didn't watch as many as i thought i would, and i've just got a random amount of the list because i can't push it to a whole number, want me to cut some off? it's unranked apart from if i could give stalker all the points ever. but at your discretioncrypt trotsky wrote: ↑Sun Dec 08, 2019 6:14 amtdm, were you planning to add to or rank your ballot? i'm mid-tally right now, i'll save yours for lasttwodeadmagpies wrote: ↑Tue Oct 22, 2019 9:51 pm i'l be watching more than that though, so flip, mid to pushing out the end of november would be great

Yay! A second vote!The Extraordinary Adventures of Saturino Farandola (Marcel Perez 1913)
only cuz you added it! would never have called it sci-fi but i'm not sure where else i'd ever get to vote for it (unless there's a bonkers poll) and i'd like to vote for it somewhere, so here will do!
Heh. It plays like crazypants Jules Verne so I figured it's as close to sci-fi as anything else. I must add that it beat Edgar Rice Burrough's Tarzan to the raised by apes thing too, so, yeah, it needs to find a spot somewhere in these polls.
