The 12th Hall of Fame
 

Ok MoFos, let's start off 2017 with a good one!

The rules:

You can nominate any film under 180 minutes long as long as it's not a previous Hall of Fame winner. Also, try to avoid previous nominations. Sequels should not be nominated unless they work as stand alone films.

Send me a PM with your nomination by next Saturday night 1/7. The reveal will be on Sunday, one*week from today. Do not reveal your nomination before then. Make sure you nominate a film that is available to watch by reasonable means. If a movie can only be obtained via Netflix DVD, not everyone will be able to watch it. Try to find a working link to the movie beforehand.

You must watch every film in it's entirety and post your thoughts in this thread. Upon watching all of the films, you will then send me a PM with your ranking.

If you join and can't finish for any reason, you will be killed.

Have fun!

Casablanca (Curtiz, 1942)
Nominated by Jiraffejustin

http://m.movieposter.com/posters/arc...ain/2/b70-1191
I am nominating one of the most beloved classics of all-time. A movie that helped kick off my own interest in seeking out older films and good films in general. It has what is probably the best script of all-time with the best dialogue of all-time. There is never a dull piece of dialogue, and is endlessly quotable.

Never Let Me Go (Romanek, 2010)
Nominated by Citizen Rules

Re: The 12th Hall of Fame
 
I'm in, just gonna take a few days to think about a nomination. Will send it before the deadline.

Camo 01-01-17 12:58 PM

Re: The 12th Hall of Fame
 
I'll leave it to closer to the deadline to decide if i'm in or not. I want to join (and recently always end up joining haha) but i'm going to be pretty busy and i'd like to watch some Sci-Fi and 2016 films. Think i know what i'll nominate if i do.

cricket 01-01-17 01:01 PM

Don't worry about the Sci-Fi or 2016 films. Those are unimportant.

Nope1172 01-01-17 01:03 PM

Re: The 12th Hall of Fame
 
I think I might join if that's ok. I would like to get back into HoFs.

cricket 01-01-17 01:03 PM

Nope is a yep!

Camo 01-01-17 01:10 PM

Re: The 12th Hall of Fame
 
Nope there's a second Animated Short HOF coming soon; just the same as the Looney Tunes one except you can nominate any as long as they are 10 minutes or under - Disney, Tom and Jerry, Fleischer, etc. Just saying coz i know you liked the last one.

Citizen Rules 01-01-17 01:39 PM

Re: The 12th Hall of Fame
 
I'm in. I will decided on my nom shortly. I've only been thinking about my nom choice for a month:p

No offense Nope, but I'm going to watch your movie last in case you drop out again...you've dropped out of the 9th Hof, 50s Part 2 Hof, WWII Hof, so the odds are higher for you not being able to complete this.

Miss Vicky 01-01-17 01:42 PM

Re: The 12th Hall of Fame
 
I might be in, but first I have to figure out what the hell I'm going to nominate.

MovieMeditation 01-01-17 01:59 PM

I don't think I'll join, or another family member will probably die. Seems to be the norm when I decide to commit to something. :data:

I might follow from the sidelines though. Hope y'all have fun and good luck hosting, cricket :up:

"If you join and can't finish for any reason, you will be killed."

I f@ckin LOVE that!!!

I'm in, sending my nom now

No offense taken, I completely understand.

I'll join!

Re: The 12th Hall of Fame
 
I think I have a film in mind, but I'm going to wait a few days before fully committing to it.

Citizen Rules 01-01-17 03:28 PM

Re: The 12th Hall of Fame
 
I've really liked all the films you've nominated Nope. I know some other people didn't always like them, but then again not everybody loves all the nominations.....Right now I'm trying to figure out what I will nominate, I want a film I believe in, and that I think most members will appreciate, and that ain't easy to do:p

Nope1172 01-01-17 03:29 PM

Re: The 12th Hall of Fame
 
I don't think I've ever nominated a film that placed higher than 7th.

Swan 01-01-17 03:30 PM

Re: The 12th Hall of Fame
 
Definitely won't join but I may participate on the sidelines.
