What is your favourite Review thread?

[Masterman]

There are a good few review threads on these forums. Some of which must take alot of time and effort, so good on all of you for sharing your reviews. Now I know some of you like to have some friendly banter on who's are the best and what not, but I was wondering who's is the best. What review thread is your favourite on the site?. This is just a little fun.

Just like choosing between your children... Everyone writes their reviews differently, with different styles and a different sense of humor.

I can't pick one.

[The Rodent]

Tough to pick... I could be funny and pick my own :D

I like all of them, love hearing about other people's thoughts on movies... but can only pick one...

I'd have to go with JayDee for the sheer amount of stuff he puts into each review.

I favour any review topics that are not done by someone who comes across as a film snob.

I mostly like the ones done by members that don't give a crap about what people think about their selections - can contain the most out there films and then the next review would be say Battleship and wouldn't care mentioning that they actually enjoyed it.

Also love the really informative ones full of film theory - there are some members on here who write these type of wonderful long reviews/posts, like to share their knowledge but can do all this without coming across as one of these film snobs.

I went with Sexy's, very good reviews with good humour.

So pick whoever's written the best review of Sophie's Choice.

Wow Master, you've started a thread which pits members against each other in what is basically a popularity contest. Oh yeah, there's no possible way this could turn out badly. :p

I'm not sure at the moment, will have to give it some thought. Rodent is my old sparring partner :D, Sexy's reviews are the most unique by far which in turn makes them damn entertaining, Used Future's are entertaining and largely about films I've never heard of. Someone else's reviews that I did enjoy was Justin but he seems to have departed the board.

Well that is totally me you've described by the way! :laugh:

:eek: Really? Are you sure you can't pick?! Did anyone else dedicate a review to you personally? :p


Anyone thanks to Rodent and whoever the other two members were that voted for me. I appreciate it. As for all the people who voted for Sexy, well I've got a message for you as well but I don't want to be banned from the board for threatening abuse so I'll keep it to myself! :D

Aside from a couple of times, I've yet to delve into members' review threads.

From different threads I've received good recommendations from Guaporense and some other members.

I appreciate the movie review threads on a particular movie. After I've watched a movie I often like to discuss it, so if there's already a thread on that movie it's nice to see what others have written and chime in.

Even using the advanced search function I find it hard to locate a movie review about a specific movie within these various member review threads (e.g. the ones listed above).

I tried it once before and oh, yeah, it did.

Which apparently I won until I was "mean" to SC and lost.

On topic, I wish there was an option for "any review thread other than Sexy Celebrity's."

[Guaporense]

Cobbyth has the best review thread.

That's terrible. +1

Forgot about this thread. I'd have to give Jaydee my vote now, even tho his reviews take 3 hours to read.

[edarsenal]

like its already been expressed, so many variations to great reading, but in the end, and it was NOT easy, I'd have to go to JayDee
