The biggest shock of all for me, but the good thing is that he'll probably be pleased at how far he fell. I put him at only #25, but he really deserved to be much higher.

yoda's shameless reverse-psychology to get more votes didn't work, apparently.
Yoda was my #3. And no it wasn't because he owns the site, but that helps of course. Imo he is one of the most intelligent and best writers here. i've talked to him a few times through PMS and Profile comments, and he is a really nice guy.

Spaulding was my #11. No doubt one of the funniest and most thoughtful posters here. Rivals Jaydee in the novel writing department, but just like Jaydee it's not meaningless fluff, but interesting thoughts. I'd stroke your ego a bit more Cap, but it's 4am here and I'm just trying to stay awake for #1.
Godoggo is the best and I miss her so much. :(

Mark was my #1. With this being a movie forum I really couldn't have put anyone else there. Aside from his well documented in the Movie Tab movie knowledge, he his also a smart and nice guy. Also sometimes he just appears from nowhere with a snappy one liner that cracks me up :lol:

Ask me what I think of this man one minute and I might tell you that I want to strangle him. Ask me the next and I might say I love him. He is the most exasperating member of this forum, but also one of the funniest and actually has a very big heart. He keeps threatening to leave this place, but to his credit and to the benefit of the forum he never actually does.
I had him at only #14, but I probably should have had him higher and was a little sad to see Sexy fall from the top.

MV.. I think we all feel this way about SC at times.. I enjoy his joking and sillyness but I think he gets in moods where he's mad at you, then perhaps hk, then me... then Swan.. and it all starts over and over... Sexy is the one who needs Camo's Midol...

I have nothing but great things to say about Cricket. He is hilariously funny, thoughtful, dedicated and damn near every time I log on or refresh the page there's at least one new +rep from him. He has quickly become a huge favorite and I actually cheered each time I logged a vote for him - and there were a great many of those.
I had him at #3.

SWANNNNN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! my #2 and Honeykid my number #5 !!!!!!!!!!!! Congrats guys two great members and two of my favorite on this forum
HK is one great MoFo. Welcoming and funny without ever being mean spirited. Love reading his posts everyday.
I remember when I just joined the site Cricket was rarely seen outside the rate the last movie and movie your watching tonight threads. Not sure what happened but the guy has really taken over the site. I'm not shocked at all that he's this high and he really deserves it. IMO the impressiveness of his movie watching is second only to Mark F over the past few years.
Anyway I had him at 10 he could've been higher, but his name only came to mind when I was at 10.

HK was my #4 and Cygnet.. was my #1... both are great members and friends.... I know they both care and worry about me .. so that means something
I know most who I interact here do feel the same as well..
Thanks to those who voted for me... This is a place Im comfortable at and respected as a Cinephilia.
Damn, guys. I was hoping HK would have beat me because he has been somewhat of a personal savior to me and I owe him a lot.
Anyway. Here is my thank you:
I can't believe I'm top three. Some of you said I would be but I didn't believe you, so I'm quite shocked.
I stayed out of this thread for most of it because I hate popularity contests. Why? Because I don't want to rank my friends. I seriously love you all. Despite my bickering with some of you (gb ;)), I always try to resolve whatever argument we may have had, because I don't want to have a grudge or a problem.
The good thing about this countdown is not the beginning, when we see the low numbers and, at least for me, feel bad seeing such great members not place very high. The good thing is the ending, when it becomes nothing but love and praise for each other.
I've made thank you posts in the past and I always talk about how you guys have helped me through a lot. I don't want to get repetitive, so I won't say much about that. But you guys - some of you especially - have embraced my incredibly paranoid, schizophrenic brain with open arms, and have talked me through my problems, and that means a lot to me. I've gained a lot of really close friends here, and I seriously hope we stay in touch until we're dead. I picture us becoming grandpas and grandmas and sharing that fact with the forum. That might sound lame to some, but I hope it happens. I hope we're all talking when we're in our 80's.
I'm no Captain Spaulding when it comes to writing thank you posts, but I hope that'll do. :)

Of course, it feels good to be liked, but I don't know how to rank anybody outside of Swan. Miss Vicky, Sexy, Slob, Yoda, Mark, bluedeed, Mr Minio, cricket, Gunslinger, sean, raul, Godoggo, Movie Gal, etc., etc., etc, I can't even think of all the cool people here, there's too many. It would have been painful to leave some of you off. And there's many reasons to like the people here, the variety is part of the reason it's so great. I mean, where else on the internet can we find a Sexy Celebrity, Yoda, Guaporense, Swan, and a Captain Spaulding?

This picture amuses me, because ***** is exactly what you're full of when it comes to the things you say about honeykid. I've seen both your ballots. I know the truth.
It's a fitting picture. It's #2.
18th place? Awesome. Now I can die in peace.
Thanks to everyone who voted for me. I honestly only expected to be around the #30~#40 mark so #18 was a huge surprise. I was in a bad mood today because I woke up too early today and things with the church band didn't go well, seeing me pretty high on the list made me enter a state of nirvana. Once again, thanks everybody.
On the downside, I'll have to spend A LOT of time catching up on parts of the list I missed. But luckily it'll be tons of fun. :D
Swan was my #5. With all of the HK and SC talk during the mofies, I was thinking that Swan makes me laugh the most and Ivoted as such. Glad that he found his way back here because the site has improved a tonne on his return. Has great movie taste and an excellent sense of humour. Completely deserved victory :) .
HK was also my #7. Glad to see him finish so high. HK can get on your nerves sometimes from his blatant dismissal of your favourites, but you always know it's in good fun even though he's being completely serious ;) . He is easily among the nicest here, in all my time on this site I don't think i've seen him get in a proper argument or be rude to someone.
Thank god now I can go to bed. Thanks a lot for taking the time to do this SC you did a great job :up:

Here's my full list. Don't fret or feel bad about your placement or whether or not you made the list. Twenty-five entries isn't enough. I genuinely like and care about (almost) everybody here. Plus I put together my list as soon as SC made this thread. If I had known that he was going to show restraint and patience for once I would've waited and put more thought into my list. There are some people I forgot about-- Miss Vicky being my biggest blunder-- and others who it made me sad not to include (jj, rauldc14, Sci-fi Slob, etc.) I had to stop with the write-ups since the Countdown was moving too quickly for me to keep up, but I'll go back and say mushy things about the other people on my list, as well as the few who barely missed the cut or should have made my list. I'll also write a proper thank you to the people who voted for me. I've been running around my house doing cartwheels and jumping off furniture ever since I showed up in the top ten, so I'm going to take a break and come back later and probably write a gazillion words.
Also a huge round of applause to my soul mate, Sexy Celebrity, for doing an amazing job with the Countdown. This is definitely a sequel that surpasses the original, and I'm not just saying that because of how much higher I placed. I always tell you how funny and clever you are and I think you demonstrated that with your careful selection of pictures during the thread. You were an excellent host.

Unfortunately I missed almost the entire reveal of this list because I've been taking care of a very sick rabbit, (who's doing a little bit better today :) ). I've been trying to read this whole thread so fast that I haven't had a chance to reply or rep anything. I'll try to sum up my replies here, and I'll go back through the thread later tonight and rep everyone who deserves rep.
Thank you to everyone who included me on your lists, and also Thank You to those of you who considered me for your list, even if I didn't make your list. I thought I had a slight chance of ranking somewhere in the higher numbers (maybe between 80 to 100), but I never thought I had a chance to rank as high as I did. I really appreciate it. :)
I've never been good at making ranked lists, and I seriously considered not sending in a list for this because I knew it would be next to impossible to narrow it down to only 25 people, and rank them, and I didn't want to cause any hurt feelings either by ranking someone too low, or by leaving someone off my list who deserved to be on it, but I just didn't have the room for everyone. I ultimately decided to send in a list because I thought it was unfair to everyone here who deserved to be on the list if I didn't send in a list. (Truth be told, I was hoping that the window to submit our lists would close before I had a chance to finish my list so I would have had a good excuse not to submit a list.)
My complete list is below, but here is a quick explanation of the basic way that I compiled my list.
#1 was the easiest choice for me because Citizen Rules and I have been online friends for a long time. We both came to this site around the same time because we were looking for a movie chat board to join together, and this one was the best one that we found on the Internet.
#2 was another easy choice for me because Yoda is a fantastic site admin. Not just for the wonderful site that he created, but also because of how well he maintains the site. He's constantly trying to improve the site. He's quick to fix any problems that occur on the site. He's smart, funny, helpful, and more. (I'm surprised that he wasn't #1 on the MoFo list.)
As I went through the rest of the list, the next set of people that I included are the people who I have the most interaction with on a daily basis.
#3 through #5 are the people who read my Logbook thread and seem to know my movie tastes better than I know them. These are the people who are probably the best at recommending movies that they think I'l like, and they're usually right.
Gideon58 made it to #6 on my list because I love reading all of Gideon's lists. These lists are original and fun, and I always look forward to the updates, and I'm always looking forward to seeing the subject of the next list.
The rest of my list is made up of the people who add a lot to this community. People like Sexy Celebrity who makes fun and unique threads, Godoggo who's a pro at running tournaments and more, plus all the super nice people who make me smile everyday, the people whose movie knowledge, movie reviews, fun conversations, funny comments, interaction in the game threads, and more keep this site running smooth, like a well-oiled machine.
I just wish I could have typed really small while making my list, and maybe jammed 50 people into my top 25 because there were so many people who were just bubbling under my list who deserved to be on it. Thank You to everyone who makes this community the best site on the Internet. :up:
This was my list:
1) Citizen Rules
2) Yoda
3) MovieGal
4) Cricket
5) Honeykid
6) Gideon58
7) Sexy Celebrity
8) Godoggo
9) Christine

No surprise that Tori (Miss Vicky) was my #1.
I have to say I was floored at how many votes I received. After coming in only 16th last year, I never dreamed I'd hit the top ten. And there are so many MoFos who deserve to be higher than me. From the bottom of my bitchy heart, I thank each and every one of you who voted for me.
You are one of my best friends and I can’t believe it has been almost ten years! You may call yourself MoFo’s resident B!tch but anyone that gets to know you understands how lucky they are to have such a generous, caring, loyal and incredibly kind friend. Thanks for continually harassing me until I joined the forum and I promise to work on posting more.
Big thank you to SC for being such a great host!
Swan, you are one of the people who took a second to say hello and welcomed me when I first joined. Thank you and congratulations!

Thank you so much for agreeing to join us. It's been wonderful having you around in my online life as well as my real one.
And now that my clicking finger is sore from giving him a ton of +rep, I want to say a HUGE thank you to Sexy Celebrity for this wonderful idea and for all the thought and creativity he put into finding just the right images. You've been a fantastic host.
And a big thank you to all who voted and all who posted in this thread, even if you didn't vote for me.
P.S. My apologies to those who were unable to vote because they didn't find out in time. I actually didn't see Sexy's post to me about extending the deadline until it was too late. :(

Could be true as well. I've certainly known same sex couples that refer to each other as husbands/wives but were not legally recognized as such. Actually I've known hetero couples that do that, too.

Someone referred to Sane as "she" in this thread just after the post where he was listed. So I got mixed up. I honestly couldn't remember his gender.

I still think you should automatically exclude me from this stuff. It'd be weird to get votes for running the site when everyone else is judged on completely different types of contributions.
I know this is a few days too late, but I don't think it would be fair to you if you were excluded from this. Your contributions to this site are not just about running the site, but about the way that you run the site.
You didn't just start the site and then let it run itself. In addition to being an active participant in the site, you also make sure that everything runs smooth. You care about the site. You tweak it when it needs small changes, you upgrade it when it needs a major change, and you do everything possible to keep it up-to-date. You don't let this site get stagnant.
I haven't been on a lot of chat boards, but I've been on a few others, and none of the other admins took the time, care and effort into maintaining their site the way that you maintain this site.

Pretty shocked I was still up at number 14. I figured I'd free fall since I haven't been here nearly as much lately. Its unfortunate but the site seems to be a little less active lately, but it will pick up again. A survivor game would really get it going, but my attempts to have that happen have been nothing short of a failure.
That being said, I will have to post my list tomorrow.

They look fun. What did you's do?. Did you have nominees for each category?.

We had all the categories and over the months, people keep an eye open on everyone.
When Godoggo opens the voting you just send in a list with your votes in each category.
Next MoFies (2015 MoFies) will probably be Jan 2016. We tend to tie them in with the movie awards season.
I won't be doing the artwork this time though. I worked for months and months on 2015 MoFies.

I simply had to go to bed because it was so damn late, and I ended up missing out when I appeared on the list! Dammit. But anyways, now that I have the opportunity to comment on everything, then I must say, that I'm extremely grateful to show up this high on the list - it was more that I could ever hope for. When I look through all the members who appear below me I'm actually quite surprised, because there are plenty of amazing members who didn't make it as high as they should have. And when I look at all the members who appeared higher than me I can't do nothing else but be happy with where I was placed. All those members in the Top 25 are what this forum is all about. It is pretty much the very core of our community! The only member who bothers me slightly is Gatsby, who has been here just one month less than I have, but still beat me out by quite some spots! :p ...On the other hand, he has participated in a whole lot and even created Top Lists, all the while I still haven't create just one myself yet (I can gladly tell you though, that the long overdue Top Horror List of mine is done, and is coming up very very soon :)).
That brings me to the fact that, considering I haven't been on this forum for more than 6 months; that I haven't created one single Top or Favorites List; that I have only particpated in one Hall of Fame and one Commentary; but still I managed to make it to the 26th spot! That is so unbelievably cool and I wanna thank everyone who voted for me, it really means a lot. Not that some random vote on some random list means something in itself, but the fact that there is nice and friendly people behind all those creative usernames, all with individual personalities and tastes, who are using this time and this list to talk about all of what we appreciate about each other.This is probably the best kind of list together with Top MoFies Awards, because we get to praise and have fun with each other in a way that is truly unique and different from we usually do around here. Even considering we were going at Sexy-high-speed, there was plenty of space and time for people to check in and comment on whoever showed up and why they are a great member to them, personally. As I have said before, this is most definitely the best forum I have ever been apart of, and everything we do here is on a whole other level than most forums around the web.
Lasty, I just want to say thanks once again to the people who voted for me, and also for those who didn't. I just love this community and pretty much every member has some kind of quality to them, and I would love to have been able to fill up 25 places more on my list, but unfortunately I was bound to only 25, and whoever didn't make my list thankfully made someone else's. I will definitely stay active around here for as long and as much as possible, and also try to interact more by every day... After all, this is the only place where I have a group of people who are all interested in film in the same way I am, so thank you all for being movie fanatics - and it doesn't hurt that you are all nice people on top of that. ;)
MM over and out.

Congratulations to Swan. :) I don't mind losing to you at all. TBH, I was hoping to stay top 5, but there's been some really good members join/be more active in the last couple of years and top 10 would've been fine with me. So to not only stay top 5 but move up a couple of places is fantastic. Obviously being #1 would've been even better, but that really would've been the result of higher placings over popularity because I have no doubt that Swan is more popular and, therefore, rightly at the top of the list.
So, to all of you who voted for me, thank you. I really do appreciate it and I don't think I've ever shied away from letting you guys know how much this place means to me. For those who didn't? Nevermind. Maybe you'll get it right next year?;):D

It's just a bit of fun, but you've both done so much to make it happen. A special thanks to SC for making it last a couple of days, too. Although I came here today and saw that I had about 20 pages to go through, that's what I'd been expecting after the first night. I'm also pleased to see that you liked this one more. I like a happier SC. :) I wasn't able to be here for the sharp end of it, but at least it meant I was able to participate a little.
And now, this....
http://awesomegifs.com/wp-content/uploads/rocking-panda-will-rock-you.gif
I found myself very conflicted with my placing at #16.
- On the one hand I defeated Daniel M this year. So that's a yay. http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y193/JayDee87/yay_zpsd08ca4bc.gif
- However I dropped 4 places from #12. :bawling:
- But as I've been MIA for the last month or two I thought people would forget me and feared a bigger, Cobpyth-style drop. So only 4 places is pretty good. http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y193/JayDee87/yay_zpsd08ca4bc.gif
- But I finished behind Camo. So I might be the 16th most popular MoFo but that also means I'm the most hated Glaswegian. :bawling:
:D
Anyway thank you to everyone that voted for me. As many of you will know I've been having my struggles of late and it's just nice to know this place and all its wonderful people is here waiting for me. In fact were it not for this place I imagine I'd have had a much tougher time over the last year or two, it's been a great form of support. It's just a nice, fun place to be around and it's given me a creative outlet in terms of writing reviews. Beyond that I've also gotten to know a lot of posters on a more personal level who have offered support and encouragement which I greatly appreciate

Ooooh....that's a little awkward.
Godoggo is the best and I miss her so much. :(
Wait what's up with the G-Dog?
You may call yourself MoFo’s resident B!tch but anyone that gets to know you understands how lucky they are to have such a generous, caring, loyal and incredibly kind friend.
I keep saying the exact same thing to her. That whole 'resident bitch' thing is just a cover, a defence mechanism to hide how wonderful she really is.
JayDee and I have become quite close via PM over the last several months. Of all of the MoFos here beside Funny Face, he's probably the one I know best. He's a funny and caring person and an indispensable member of these forums. I had him at #5 and should have placed him higher, but I dropped him a couple of spots because he's been AWOL too often and too long.
I appreciate the sweet words but only #5? :eek: That hurts. So you punished me for having depression ongoing, undiagnosed health issues? Harsh. :p
Come back and stay back. We love you and we miss you.
Excuse me, got something in my eye. Actually it's both eyes...it's the damndest thing.

04-12-15, 02:12 PM
Well, when Miss Vicky finished calculating the results, I was just so pleased by what I saw 'cause it looked different than last year's.
Obviously, first I laughed at the fact that Honeykid was #2 and not #1, and it didn't bother me at all that Swan had taken my #1 spot. I said recently that, considering everything -- looking at all the many different angles, Swan was the #1 MoFo right now. I said this before I decided to do this countdown. This just proved I was right (I like to be right). He is just the star of the show now. He is a friendly, visible, fresh, memorable, recognizable, powerhouse of a member. He is a much warmer, less threatening kind of character than me. He is very 2015. I think he's kind of understated, too. He sort of has an underdog kind of quality to him. I love how prophetic and cheering on Nostromo87 was on the first page of this thread with the swan pictures and saying, "Swan could win this!!" Nostromo, just like Nostradamus, saw the future.
And then Cricket was also so high on the list and that was a big surprise to me, but it was so deserved. He was my #2 and I don't even know if I had him on my list the last time. He is probably the most soulful member here, and yet at the same time there is this brute masculinity to him that I like. He is a real man, a strong man, sensitive yet aggressive. I loved that the Top 3 was all different from the last Top MoFos countdown and I was so glad he was there.
Then I was #4. Which really made me quite happy. I knew I most likely wouldn't be #1 again. People are too jealous of me. They shouldn't be. But I really feared being out of the Top 10 and maybe being in the teens or twenties, or at absolute worst, the 30's. Sorry to all you 30's people. One day I'll probably be there.
So... thanks to those who voted for me.
And Honeykid... I really expected him to be #1 this time. That would have upset me a little, I admit. The poop picture I gave him was totally a revenge for him taking my Funniest MoFo MoFie, which I do deserve to have. But whatever.
It's not that Honeykid is a bad member or I hate him now -- I don't. But I sometimes don't really understand his massive appeal, although I am learning about his tricks better now since I'm really laser watching. His user title, "MoFo Whisperer", was thought up by me, because of his ability to make people come to him, to feel soothed by him, accepted, loved, cared for. He totally deserves the "Best Friend" MoFie, whatever's it called, probably every time.
Plus, I can't be bitter about his popularity here because I am really in the same boat, if not worse. There are people here who may despise me for being such a high ranking MoFo and I completely understand why. I do not seem to take movies as seriously as everyone else here. This is called MOVIE Forums, afterall. I assure you, though, that I do have a passion for movies, no matter how f'ed up it might be. I support Asian Cinema, anime, foreign movies, all of that. I'll scream about placements on countdowns, but that's only because I truly feel you all are ignoring some of the real groundbreaking greats in favor of the tiny zits that the world at large did not notice, will never notice and do not care for. That's snotty and false. Art is something that makes a big impression, it's not something that gets only a little attention. All of life is art and only the strong survive. Honeykid and I, after a decade, are real artists here. We have survived. Same goes for Mark F, Godoggo, Miss Vicky, Yoda (whose artistry built this little piece of online heaven)... and now we have The Gunslinger45 and our newest strong edition, Captain Spaulding, my younger brother from Hell.
Anyway... I'm very proud of this Countdown. I am glad Miss Vicky got to be a co-partner with me this time. And I love that yesterday when it ended, the site experienced its second busiest day in all of its history.
Thank you very, very much, everyone who contributes to this forum.

Damn, guys. I was hoping HK would have beat me because he has been somewhat of a personal savior to me and I owe him a lot.
Anyway. Here is my thank you:
I can't believe I'm top three. Some of you said I would be but I didn't believe you, so I'm quite shocked.
I stayed out of this thread for most of it because I hate popularity contests. Why? Because I don't want to rank my friends. I seriously love you all. Despite my bickering with some of you (gb ;)), I always try to resolve whatever argument we may have had, because I don't want to have a grudge or a problem.
The good thing about this countdown is not the beginning, when we see the low numbers and, at least for me, feel bad seeing such great members not place very high. The good thing is the ending, when it becomes nothing but love and praise for each other.
I've made thank you posts in the past and I always talk about how you guys have helped me through a lot. I don't want to get repetitive, so I won't say much about that. But you guys - some of you especially - have embraced my incredibly paranoid, schizophrenic brain with open arms, and have talked me through my problems, and that means a lot to me. I've gained a lot of really close friends here, and I seriously hope we stay in touch until we're dead. I picture us becoming grandpas and grandmas and sharing that fact with the forum. That might sound lame to some, but I hope it happens. I hope we're all talking when we're in our 80's.
I'm no Captain Spaulding when it comes to writing thank you posts, but I hope that'll do. :)
I had you in my list too. You are a very cool guy. :D

I found an error with one of the ballots.
Teeter g - You listed one particular MoFo twice - at number 10 and at number 14. In the interest of time, I'm going to delete the number 14 entry for that person and bump your numbers 15-25 up one spot each. So you will have a ballot of only 24 MoFos.
Apparently I didn't look close enough when I sent it. I was thinking of people and re-arranging when I was working it out so however you had to do it is good. Sorry about that.

Nostromo87

Swan's got the right things going for him. The graceful and kind persona of a swan, balanced with enthusiasm for all kinds of horror as well as arthouse films- that gets street cred with everyone on the site. Plus he's just a cool dude to talk to whether it's about movies, music, or anything really. Plus, he has the common courtesy to give reach-arounds. Oh dear! Have i gone too far :shifty:;)
Anyways, i think lots of MoFos have the goods to be #1, and i'm not one who pushes for the 'give everyone a trophy' mentality. It is a challenge to finish #1, in anything really, with lots of factors in play. I just think this was a fun countdown, so thanks to Sexy Celebrity and Miss Vicky for bringing it together. I liked some of the psychology Sexy got into a little while ago with some of the rankings, maybe i'll revisit this thread later on today and share some of my thoughts as well
I love how prophetic and cheering on Nostromo87 was on the first page of this thread with the swan pictures and saying, "Swan could win this!!" Nostromo, just like Nostradamus, saw the future.

I still find myself wondering why many members insists on calling me MovieMeditations with that 's' at the end...
This is how it goes... MovieMeditations is what I do, MovieMeditation is who I am. :)

I miss deadite! this guy was so friendly. tonight I'm gonna watch Evil Dead 2 to his memory .
No biggie. I've been wrong about MoFo's genders before, too.
I've also had people mistake me for a man on these boards. Not sure how that happened, but it's happened. More than once.
I thought you were a man at first. You had the avatar from the movie Her, and I just thought your name implied you were gay or something, lol. But that was only for like my first month or less, then I saw that people were referring to you as a woman and things began making sense.

Yes, JayDee. Get well soon, JayDee. You have to marry Miss Vicky A.S.A.P. !!!!!
Oh I'm all for it. I'd love to make her Mrs Vicky but I think she needs some convincing. I'll need to start working on an elaborate proposal. Perhaps a treasure hunt of sorts with little gestures scattered throughout the forum
Captain Spaulding
04-12-15, 09:54 PM
Okay, now it's my turn to get all sappy . . .
You know how comedians put on a fake smile in public, investing all their energy into making others laugh and feel good about themselves, while on the inside the comedian is often sad and lonely and depressed? I'm not saying that I'm sad and lonely and depressed, but the dichotomy is very similar between how I act on here and how I am in the real world. Despite the big, boisterous, egocentric things I say on here, I'm incredibly humbled and flattered and honored to place so high on the countdown. I was crossing my fingers for top twenty, so to see myself in the top ten alongside names like Miss Vicky and Yoda and Mark F is surreal to me. It doesn't compute. My Captain Spaulding persona may be pumping his fist and saying, "Hell, yeah, bitches, bask in my glory," but the real me, the guy behind the clown makeup, the guy sitting at his laptop, is shaking his head and saying, "I don't deserve this." Last night I felt like popping open a bottle of champagne and pouring it all over myself, but when I woke up this morning and the accomplishment really sank in, I became very emotional. You guys have no idea how much it really means to me.
Last week when everybody was posting baby pictures, I was going through photos of my childhood, looking for pictures to share, and I was reminded once again of how much better my life was back then. I was a happy child. I enjoyed acting goofy and having fun and making people laugh. In elementary school, once I got over my initial shyness, I was always the class clown. But eventually things took a turn for the worse. For a long time, my life was very rough, very stressful, very trying. I lost my smile. At times I even lost my will to live. My life is okay now, but I feel like something inside of me died during those years. I compare the boy in the pictures to the man in the mirror and they are two different people. Not because of the physical changes, but because there is a light in the boy's eyes that is now extinguished in mine. I have a very dark view of the world. I always assume the worst in people. I've lost my ability to trust others. If things are good today, my mind interprets that to mean that things will be bad tomorrow. It's a miserable way to feel.
Ever since I joined this forum, however, life has felt better. The sun shines a little brighter. Instead of being sullen and quiet and walking around like I hate everybody, I wake up most mornings in a good mood. I've got pep in my step. I smile more often, crack jokes more often. I feel, for the first time in a long time, happy. And it's all because of you guys. I only joined this forum to write about movies. Now that's secondary to me. I just enjoy coming here every day and hanging out with friends, having a good time, sharing a laugh, hearing about what everybody's been up to. There have been times in my life when I've felt alone in the world. Seven billion people on the planet and I can't reach out to a single one of them. Now I feel like I have an entire community who cares about me. You guys give me strength. You make me feel good about myself again. You instill in me the kind of confidence that I need to continue striving for personal goals. The little boy inside of me who used to act like Ace Ventura just to get his classmates to laugh has been reborn. Sadly, my pessimism is still strong -- that's why I'm always shocked when people actually include me on their lists or vote for me for Best New MoFo -- but no matter how much ***** life may throw at me in the future, I feel like I'll be okay as long as I have you guys. And that's an amazing feeling.
Reading everyone's comments during this countdown has confirmed for me what I already knew: This is not a forum, but a family.
So from the bottom of my heart, not as Captain Spaulding, but as Forrest (my real name), I want to express my gratitude to every member here. I don't care whether you voted for me or not. That's not what this is about. I just want to thank all of you for simply being you. For being awesome and friendly and warm and caring and for making this place my second home. I didn't realize it when I joined, but I needed Movie Forums. I was broken and you fixed me. And there's nothing I can ever say or do to express the full depths of my gratitude. I love each and every one of you.
I've got pep in my step.
but as Forrest (my real name)
Is your last name Gump?
Seriously though, excellent post there bruv. If there was a sappy thank you post writing contest, you'd surely have me and everyone else beat.
I'm sorry to hear you've gone through rough sh*t. I know how that feels. But, I'm glad this forum helped you get some pep back. I also know how that feels.
I love personal write-ups Captain. Thanks for sharing. I have similar sentiments about the community. After my divorce I was looking for something that was a bit of a diversion when my kids weren't around. I don't do bars and it is hard to find people around here with the same interests as me. I love movies so looked for a forum. I had never joined one before and started slow but pretty quickly it became about more then movie lists, although that is still a lot of fun. I know you can't really call people here friends in the true sense, but I want to see what people are up to here way more then I do my facebook that is full of people I have known my whole life. This is a great community, and you are a very cool part of that Captain.

If he's Forrest, does that make me Bubba?
http://www.movieforums.com/community/attachment.php?attachmentid=21077&stc=1&d=1428887096
I'd rather be Bubba than Jenny. Jenny had to live in a trailer and then she got AIDS.
I also wouldn't mind being Lt. Dan. Sure, he lost his legs, but at least he lived and later got those robotic legs. And then he married AN ASIAN WOMAN of all people! Which would mean I might be marrying Miss Vicky if JayDee doesn't step up and take action.
Excellent post Cap! Your position was fully deserved and your timeline you posted earlier isn't unrealistic ,well except the Yoda renaming the forums part ;) . If all of us cheesy b@stards are family then I think we're all screwed :willem:

I already knew that Captain's name was Forrest, but now that it's out in the open, I'll be able to make "RUN, FORREST, RUN!" jokes. It'll be the new Young Guns joke.
There will never be a new Young Guns joke :jules:
Captain, your heartfelt post makes me want to reach through the computer and share one thing with you.

Seriously, though.... Captain Spaulding went from 79th place to 7th place in a year. I mean, the man was the biggest jumper by far.
I thought there was a chance he might even end up being #1 when I started seeing all the lists come in. I definitely knew he was in the Top Ten before Miss Vicky calculated everything.

Do you know who you're reminding me of around here for some reason?
I've never really gotten to know you. I don't know much about you. You're still kinda strange to me. But you kinda remind me of Honeykid for some reason.
