That'll make a great wake up moment - THANKS



And with Top 100 Lists, it would be impossible for me as well. When I was a little kid I did have a notebook with every film I ever watched until I was around 13 when it dawned on me that with films on TV that are edited for time and content there were films I technically did not see, so I stopped.

Now, I have seriously considered a 100 Countless Rewatches List, though the only way I could do it would be alphabetical.

Every US timezone other than Eastern throws me off, so I know how you feel haha.

I can easily convert my local time to Eastern, but I need to look everything else up. I know it's just basic math, but I keep mixing Central and Mountain time up, and/or forgetting one of them even exists. :facepalm:

Re: 23rd MoFo Hall of Fame
 

I might actually have a nomination! It's not any of the ones I've watched over the last few days, and I didn't even have it on my "to watch" list for the rest of the week. The idea just suddenly came to me, so I'm going to rewatch it now since I only saw it when it was in theatres.

I sent MV a PM to check it's availability on streaming sites in the US since it's a newer film than what I'd typically go with. I imagine it should be pretty easy to find by now though.

Re: 23rd MoFo Hall of Fame
 

I'll probably rewatch a potential nomination today (my list of possible noms has grown from one to three during the last couple of days).

It must be lucky to only have one film to suggest for nomination my shortlist right now...


Black Narcissus (Powell, Pressburger)
Jane Eyre (Robert Stevenson)
Shadow of a Doubt (Alfred Hitchcock)
The Abominable Snowman (Val Guest)
Invasion of the Body Snatchers (Don Siegel)
The Bat (Crane Wilbur)
Divorce Italian Style (Pietro Germi)
The Great Love (Pierre Etaix)
Jaws (Steven Spielberg)
Le Samurai (Jean-Pierre Melville)
Macbeth (Roman Polanski)
Barry Lyndon (Stanley Kubrick)
The Long Goodbye (Robert Altman)
Raiders of the Lost Ark (Steven Spielberg)
The Mission (Roland Joffe)
Au Revoir Les Enfants (Louis Malle)
Last of the Mohicans (Michael Mann)
Casino (Martin Scorsese)
Stoker (Park Chan-Wok)
Darling (Mickey Keating)

I'd list a bunch of my potential future nominations, but I don't want people to stop joining these.

Re: 23rd MoFo Hall of Fame
 

I'm officially part of this HoF now, and not just someone who keeps creeping on the thread haha.

I know comedies don't typically do too well in the General HoFs, but I wanted to go with something a little different. It's a bit of an odd film from one of my favourite directors, so it'll be interesting to see what everyone thinks of it.

Mine is also funny, if there's something wrong with you.

Re: 23rd MoFo Hall of Fame
 

I've stopped my back and forth hassle and sent in a nomination. Based on the reactions Tideland has received in the Fantasy HoF, I'm expecting people to hate this one as well. Well, maybe @cricket manages to nominate something that people hate even more :D

Hey, I know the feeling. I took a risk and nominated a documentary, which we all now how bad that went over haha

Got pahaK and Cosmic's noms. This is going to be a very interesting HOF.

:eek: most likely contains images of bodily fluids:p

The one with the hot nurse?

Uh? I have no idea what you're talking about :D

Oh:) it's a film we talked about once briefly.

My memory is so bad. I have no idea what movie we've talked about that has a hot nurse. Anyways, no hot nurses in my nomination.

Something I would hate?

please not let it be a comedy.. :D

@cricket ... I hope you enjoy mine.. as well as @neiba @Citizen Rules and @edarsenal.

It's hard to say. I got the impression that you didn't like Tideland and there are certain similarities between that and the film I nominated here. So, I guess it depends on what exactly bothered you in Tideland.

And no, it's not a comedy. I rarely watch them and doubt I'll ever nom one.

I'm not fond of comedies unless they are not American. I like foreign comedy.

You never know with me, I may like your nomination.

I've never heard of icheckmovies.com. Is it a free site?

How do you feel about satire?

I don't like degrading comments.. movies that poke fun at other races, religion, gender, etc.

Yup :)

Don't you still use Letterboxd?

Never used it consistently. Because I found icheckmovies first, never wanted to go through the trouble of checking every single movie I had watched in a new site. Besides, I quite like icheckmovies.

Yep, technical aspects are all well and good but if I don't enjoy the film then I rank it low.

Re: 23rd MoFo Hall of Fame
 

I'm the same, a lot of times when I have trouble placing movies in my Vote the deciding factor will be enjoyment.

I've narrowed my choices down to four....can't wait for the reveal.

Re: 23rd MoFo Hall of Fame
 

Yeah I'm wondering if I am going to enjoy or dread the choices.

I think you'll like mine if you haven't seen it already.

I think you will like mine. I have seen only one person on here who posted a review of mine.

Re: 23rd MoFo Hall of Fame
 

I just searched for my nomination on the forums. The results were kind of expected (and typical) for my choice: very few people have rated or reviewed it in any way, and the existing ones range from hate to lukewarm to love quite evenly. No one (except me, obviously) in this HoF has mentioned the film on these forums before.

Are we able to search if a movie has even been mentioned? I only know how to search reviews, click on reviews and type the title. Anyway you've got me curious.

I just searched the forums with the movie name (within " " as it has multiple words).

It use to drive me crazy when I searched for a movie title that was made up of common words, as any post with any of those individual words came up in a search. So I asked Yoda if he could change the search engine to boolean search parameters and he did:up:

I just did a search for one of Cricket's noms, by going to advance search (search in post, not titles) and (results as post, not threads)....Surprisingly there's been quite a few post about his movie nom, which is a fairly obscure movie.

https://www.movieforums.com/communit...archid=9926890

When I hit the search icon to the left of my profile pic I don't see options so I only get threads that are about that movie.

Leave the search bar empty and click search, it’ll take you to the advanced options where you can search posts and get the results as posts, filter by username, etc.

Got it!

Re: 23rd MoFo Hall of Fame
 

My film is a one word title thats pretty common. That search won't work for me. Lol

Re: 23rd MoFo Hall of Fame
 

14 hours left until the reveal of the nominations!

Re: 23rd MoFo Hall of Fame
 

a door closes, another opens. . . sweet

Looking forward to the reveal! I'll be asleep during it but will be cool to wake up to!

Re: 23rd MoFo Hall of Fame
 

Again.. cant wait to say Yay or Nay to the selections.

Re: 23rd MoFo Hall of Fame
 

Any guesses as to who picked what?

Late Spring is probably Siddon
Hunger I do know already, but will let others guess.
Great Mouse Detective is probably Ahwell
Gangs of NY could be Miss Vicky
Stand by Me could be Citizen.
Fisher King could be Pahak
JoJobRabbit could be Ed.
That’s all I’ve got for now

Pahak Reflecting Skin
MV Skin I Live In
Cosmic JoJo Rabbit
Raul Late Spring
MovieGal Stand By Me
Sarge Gangs of New York
Citizen Fisher King
Neiba Hunger
Ahwell Schindler's List
Ed Great Mouse Detective

3 of these are correct. All of Wyldesyde’s are wrong.

I just looked up Christiane F and it totally sounds like a Pahak nominee

Re: 23rd MoFo Hall of Fame
 

I'll play....

Miss Vicky - The Great Mouse Detective
Citizen Rules - The Fisher King
neiba - Late Spring
rauldc14 - Jojo Rabbit
cricket - Christiane F.
ahwell - Schindler's List
edarsenal - Stand By Me
Sarge - The Skin I Live In
MovieGal - Hunger
CosmicRunaway - Gangs Of New York
pahaK - The Reflecting Skin

lol I know who nominated that... we talked about it this morning.. I had seen it about 8 years ago.. .and told them it was a good film. They said I need to revisit it.

2 correct

It does, but it isn’t.

Very interesting nominations...

Join, motherf*cker.

This is an interesting group of nominations. I don't remember a lot about most of the films I've already seen, so they're definitely due to be revisited. Well, one of them I hoped never to have to suffer through again, and if it's not at the very bottom of my list I'll be incredibly surprised.

Christiane F. - Unless I'm getting this mixed up with a different film, it has some pretty uncomfortable content featuring minors and drug use. I don't remember very much of it, though I think it had a great soundtrack.

The Fisher King - This is the one Terry Gilliam film I haven't seen yet, so I guess I'll finally be completing his filmography. Gilliam's work can be rather hit or miss, but I'm definitely looking forward to it!

Gangs of New York - I hated every single thing about this film. I only watched it because it was required for a film class. I could only watch it in 15 minute chunks before turning it off for awhile. Seeing it nominated here has completely soured my mood.

The Great Mouse Detective - I know I saw this when I was a kid, but don't honestly don't remember much about it.

Hunger - I've been meaning to watch this, but haven't gotten around to it. My room mate didn't like it, but we don't exactly have the same taste in film.

Jojo Rabbit - This was my second favourite film of last year.

Late Spring - I keep seeing this film come up in different places, but I haven't bothered to check it out.

The Reflecting Skin - I don't think I've ever heard of this, and the poster doesn't exactly give me much to go by.

Schindler's List - We watched this in school when I was fairly young, so I only really remember the broad strokes, and none of the details.

The Skin I Live In - I know I've seen part of this, but I don't know if I've seen the entire thing or not.

Stand By Me - Here's another film I saw when I was young, that I remember very little about. That's kind of the theme of this HoF for me haha.

Re: 23rd MoFo Hall of Fame
 

I will play

Christiane F - Cricket
The Fisher King - Sarge
Gangs of New York - Miss Vicky
The Great Mouse Detective - Ahwell
Hunger -
JoJoRabbit - Rauldc
Late Spring - Siddon
The Reflecting Skin - Pahak
The Skin I live in - Neiba
Schindler's List - edarsenal
Stand By Me - Citizen Rules

Why does it seem like Im missing a film?

Two more than expected :)

2 correct.

Re: 23rd MoFo Hall of Fame
 

I have seen everything but "The Reflecting Skin", "The Fisher King", "JoJoRabbit" and "Late Spring".

so far everything has been "Yay" but what will become "Nay" after so many years.

After reading your comments ..... really nailed it didn't I :D

I have not seen Gangs of New York, Fisher King, Hunger, or Reflecting Skin. I have interest in all of them and I almost watched Reflecting Skin a few days ago. Of the remaining 6, there's only 1 I didn't like but I'm hopeful for a better result this time.

I won’t even try to guess :)

I’ve seen four of these, and like all four. I watched one of them (not my own) very recently, and the other three in 2020, so I’ll see if I get around to rewatching them.

Why do people use Nick Cage as a meme... the only good movie he's in... is "Fast Times at Ridgemont High".

Re: 23rd MoFo Hall of Fame
 

Here are some poor guesses, though I know one of them is right:

Christiane F. - Cricket
The Fisher King - Ed
Gangs of New York - Satan Himself
Stand by Me - Raul

He has a very expressive face.

but he's mediocre... God forbid they did cast him for the terrible terrible Wicker Man remake.. what a disgrace to Robin Hardy, Christopher Lee and Edward Woodward...

by the way.. bad spelling due to no glasses on currently.

Most confident in 1, 3, and 4

Re: 23rd MoFo Hall of Fame
 

I guess it's a good thing I didn't nominate Mandy then, MG. :D

Go read synopsis of each film and Im sure you can figure out more.

Re: 23rd MoFo Hall of Fame
 

I'm REALLY horrible at this, but let's give it a shot:

Christiane F. ~ MovieGal

The Fisher King ~ ahwell

Gangs of New York ~ sarge

The Great Mouse Detective ~ Citizen Rules

Hunger Miss ~ vicky

Jojo Rabbit ~ CosmicRunaway

Late Spring ~ neiba

The Reflecting Skin ~ pahaK

Schindler's List ~ rauldc14

The Skin I Live In ~ cricket

Stand By Me ~ edarsenal

Haha glad I’m not the only one.

I have yet to have a necessity for seeing this so I have yet to finish it. I think I’ve tried to watch it like 4 times or something like that. Never got through it. I don’t like it at all. If I didn’t have a proper reason for not joining I have now. :D

Great thing about Mandy.. its saved due to the acting of Linus Roache... I am a HUGE L&O fan.....

My daughter was 9 when this film came out.. and she was the only under 18 years old person in the theatre... and it was her "film of the day" pick...

Ed, Ed .. shame on you.. Yes, it does seem like my pick.. and I have seen it years ago.. but no... not mine.

try again!

dammit dammit dammit
https://i.makeagif.com/media/11-08-2015/jJ3pPc.gif

I thought that one was gonna be a given

@Citizen Rules will know my pick right off... he talked to me about that subject matter one day.. he said "You sure do like ............. films" in a matter of speaking.

Re: 23rd MoFo Hall of Fame
 

Oh and if I enjoy myself with this HOF... I have two films already picked out for the next two HOF that I join , if I do that is

Re: 23rd MoFo Hall of Fame
 

THAT does not help

lol

One of these is right.

2 correct, and not Satan

This might help some of you with the guessing, since most of you are wrong.

I’ve previously seen seven of these.

Christiane F. - I had never even heard of this before it arrived in my inbox. This looks really grim and dirty.

The Fisher King - I’ve never seen this and comedies are often misses for me. It does have a good cast though so here’s hoping it’s an exception.

Gangs of New York - I see a few people guessing this was mine, but I actually didn’t like it the one time I saw it. I assume people are guessing me because of Leo? Or maybe because I was considering a Scorsese? I almost nommed a Scorsese but changed my mind when this got picked.

The Great Mouse Detective - I watched this once before (maybe for a movie tournament?) but didn’t like it. Maybe if I’d grown up with it I would’ve had a better experience, but it didn’t have nostalgia on its side.

Hunger - It looks like it could be good. I know a lot of people praise Fassbender and I think he’s a solid actor but he’s never blown me away. Maybe this will change that.

Jojo Rabbit - I watched this crazy ass movie a couple of months ago and thought it was very good, but didn’t love it. Maybe I’ll love it this time.

Late Spring - I watched this for a previous Hall of Fame and found it boring and thought the main character was annoying. I don’t expect that to change.

The Reflecting Skin - I typically only like vampire movies when they’re super homo-erotic and star Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt, and Antonio Banderas so I don’t have high hopes for this.

Schindler's List - I love this movie. I think it’s absolutely essential viewing. However, it’s a really, really tough watch and it’s very long so I can’t say I’m really looking forward to seeing it again.

The Skin I Live In - I watched this for the Horror countdown and loved it. It’s super twisted and Banderas looks great in it. :randy:

Stand By Me - I don’t know if I ever saw this as a kid but I watched it several years ago and it just didn’t really resonate with me. I hope that changes this time around.

like I said, I'm TERRIBLE at these ha haha ha

I love that the one that you were right about isn’t even your own.

I would not have guessed that this was a vampire film based on the poster. Now I'm interested.

I was going to guess that this was your nomination, but I erased it because I thought you said you didn't like it during the Countdown. I guess my memory is even worse than I thought haha.

Re: 23rd MoFo Hall of Fame
 

One thing I DO know, while we've had a number of emotionally tragic HoFs in the past, this WILL BE a crazy, f@cked up sh#t HoF
:yup:

you NEVER guess your own



right???

New Guesses
MV Skin I Live In
Sarge Gangs of New York
Ahwell Schindler's List
Phalak JoJo Rabbit
Raul Great Mouse Detective
Ed Stand By Me
Cosmic Reflecting Skin
MovieGal Hunger
Citizen Fisher King
Neiba Late Spring

Dammit Ed you can't even pick your own right!

Christiane F and The Skin I Live In, I watched with my friend in Argentina.. both are very interesting films. I recommended a film called Mandragora to the person who nominated Christiane F.

Great Mouse Detective, Stand By Me are from my childhood..

Schindler's List and Gangs of New York are from my young adulthood.

Hunger from my love of Ireland's fight for freedom and History, plus some of the content is very risque'

2 correct

Omg I got 3 right with no clues. I'm going backwards.

THAT IS THE BEST GIF EVER!!!!

:D :D :D

Re: 23rd MoFo Hall of Fame
 

Revised (and final) guesses...

Miss Vicky - The Skin I Live In
Citizen Rules - The Great Mouse Detective
neiba - Schindler's List
rauldc14 - Late Spring
cricket - Christiane F.
ahwell - Stand By Me
edarsenal - The Fisher King
Sarge - Gangs Of New York
MovieGal - Hunger
CosmicRunaway - Jojo Rabbit
pahaK - The Reflecting Skin

My guess of guesses: 3 right lol

I've not seen this film before (I wasn't lying to throw people off haha), but looking up what it is now, this seems like a pretty good guess. I don't think I've said this anywhere on the forums before, but I love Viggo Mortensen.

Re: 23rd MoFo Hall of Fame
 

@pahaK does love Terry Gillham films.. perhaps "The Fisher King" is his...

A quickie guess before I go off to work:

Christiane F - Pahak
The Fisher King - Sarge
Gangs of New York - Miss Vicky (pretty sure of this)
The Great Mouse Detective - Ahwell
Hunger - MovieGal (pretty sure of this)
JoJoRabbit - CosmicRunaway
Schindler's List - edarsenal
Late Spring - Rauldc (pretty sure of this)
The Reflecting Skin - Cricket
The Skin I live in - Neiba (pretty sure of this)
Stand By Me - Wyldesyde

Something is wrong with my list! I think I have all the movies but too many people, either that or I didn't nominate a movie:eek: I'm way too tired to figure out where I goofed up.

Nice noms everyone! Me like🙂
