At first I was thinking, "this is not a list that needs to be done annually..."

But then I forgot about the rating and ranking aspect of it all and began realizing that this is all about the reviews and the reviewers. This is a great fundament to get people to read and comment more on reviews and what all these awesome members create and spend time on. It's a great way to get people out there and read up on reviews and do stuff they don't usually do, while it's also a great way for those who read certain members threads, to check out new ones as well.

I'll be turning in a list, but most importantly, I'll get around the forums the coming weeks and look up on MoFo's hardworking critics! :up:

I guess I need to watch and review some more movies to keep my thread fresh in people's minds.
Also I need to get reading people's reviews.

I still think Camo needs to make himself a review thread and stop posting in them just in the Rate the Last Movie You Saw thread. Same with Cricket.

I don't consider myself a big reviewer guy because I would rather spend time watching more movies :p

I do like discussing movies though, like in the HOF threads.

But how else would they get people to see them?

Also, vote 1 for Iro's Film Diary.

People see my reviews. :shrug:

In any case, they could always post in both places.

But see that's the problem. Members review threads should be like the HoFs. They just aren't because basically people will need to want to comment, since they are not "bound" as with a HoF.

But that should be the goal for a review thread. Posting a review should get more discussion. I'm pretty sure that's what every reviewer wants.

You all should come and visit my review thread sometime:p, tell me I'm nuts:eek: or just make a comment... or even a movie recommendation:)

The reason i am making this an annual thread is because i think it may bring more attention to our review section. Some people put lots of effort into there threads and get hardly any feedback. I know last time around this thread had me reading alot more review threads.

MovieMeditation

I'm more busy than I used to be, so I can't update my review threads as much as I'd like. I don't expect to rank high, but it isn't that much important to me... at least not this time around. :p

I'd rather want to just read up on review threads and see which exciting new member threads pop up in the final countdown.

But nevertheless, here are my threads...

I doubt it's still active, since the deadline was supposed to be in January and there's only mention of one list being received...

If you take a look at my thread, please look at my latest reviews as my writing style has changed since I first started reviewing:p

Honestly, i prefer the idea of a Reviewer Countdown. Last time i voted Mark F's Movie Tab as my #1 because Mark is my favourite reviewer but he doesn't have a thread. You could still link the review thread if they have one and it would probably be a bigger Countdown. Just an idea.

I only posts thoughts because if I properly reviewed films it would take away too much time from my general film watching. Every now and again I will post a review but it's very rare. I think I'm still able to convey why I did or did not like a film.

I usually post in the RTLMYS thread since no one checks the pinned review threads.

Maybe people can link to their reviews under the review tab?

No. You cannot vote for yourself. That's cool, I wouldn't have that allowed either, but I though I should ask as I didn't see it.

I will put a list together and send it in to you:p

Hey guys, again this thread just didn't take off. I haven't received enough list's to bother with a countdown so this thread is dead. Thanks to those of you who sent a list. To be honest the review section has been like a ghost town lately.
