Re: The 7th MoFo Hall of Fame
Just saw Daniel M is in! Fantastic!
And I'm willing to give ample time this round. I figured until September 20th, may even extend to beginning of October. |
Re: The 7th MoFo Hall of Fame
We have a very diverse set of nominations thus far! I really think this will be an excellent round.
|
I submitted my nomination.
|
I'm not sure what to nominate, I always try to go with something that most people have not seen so that they can discover it. These are the ones I consider (because I thnk they're all masterpiece). Tell me which ones interest you the most, the least so that I nominate something most of you look forward to watch.

Re: The 7th MoFo Hall of Fame
Add Wolf Children and Le Cercle Rouge to "haven't seen but would love to."

A Man and a Woman is already on my watchlist. I loved Wolf Children and That Obscure Object of Desire. I really liked The Red Circle, but didn't that already win a HoF? I thought McCabe and Mrs. Miller was just ok, but I want to see it again. I'd be happy to watch any of those, it doesn't matter if I've already seen them or not. |
I think a few members have seen Wolf Children.

Obviously I would prefer that you pick an English movie, (but I'll watch a foreign-language film if you nominate it), but of the English movies on your list,

Yes, I saw Wolf Children. IMO, it was very good, but not great. (But you have to remember that I'm not a fan of anime.) |
Re: The 7th MoFo Hall of Fame
Le Cercle Rouge won a movie tournament. Nominate whatever you like, but please don't say exactly what on here :p. Next Sunday is the unveil.

Re: The 7th MoFo Hall of Fame
The wait is killing me!

Re: The 7th MoFo Hall of Fame
no, I won't say in advance what I'll nominate raul don't worry. I just want to nominate something that I hope will be enjoyed by most members.

It's a very good movie, but it isn't my kind of movie. I thought the story was well told and the animation was absolutely gorgeous, but I just couldn't get past the whole werewolf/bestiality thing. That said, nominate whatever you think is most worthy. I don't think it really matters whether other people like anime or not other whether they've seen a particular film or not. It's about what deserves to be recognized. |
Re: The 7th MoFo Hall of Fame
Also it doesn't have to be the Hall of the unseen either
