22nd Hall of Fame

https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/c...pe=image%2Fpng

Here we are again my friends! Time for our 22nd Hall of Fame! Time to add another great winner to our Hall of Fame entrants! I hope we get a nice interesting mix again, seems like we always do. Happy watching!

Rules will remain what they have been. Here they are as a brief reminder:
Movie Nominations: Any movie under 240 minutes can be nominated, except for previous HoF winners.

PM me your nominations and include: film title & year of release. Keep your nomination a secret until the reveal of the films.

Open Door Policy: For one week after the reveal of the movie nominations, I will be taking new members.

Length of HoF: There will be approximately one week of viewing time per movie, so if there are 10 movie nominations the HoF will be about 10 weeks long. The deadline to finish will be posted after the HoF starts.

During the HoF: Everyone watches the nominated movies and will discuss them in this thread. You need to write at least a few sentences about your thoughts on each movie, after you watch it. Part of the process is discussion of the movies as a group.

Note: If you've seen a movie recently or have seen it many times you can skip watching it, otherwise you have to watch all nominated movies.

Requesting help to locate movies: If you have trouble locating a movie make a post and ask for help. When responding with a movie link send it by private message, don't post links or embed films in this thread.

Dropouts: Members who don't finish will be disqualified and their movie nomination removed from the HoF. Please make sure you have the time to complete this, it helps to start watching the films right away so you don't have a bunch of movies to watch at the end.If for any reason you do need to drop out, absolutely let me know you can't finish.

New HoF Members: New HoF members will need to post their movie write ups on a regular basis. 1 write up in the first 2 weeks, and 3 in the first month and so on. That way we know your keeping up. If you're going to be absent from watching movies for a period PM me and let me know, otherwise I might think you've dropped out.

Re: 22nd Hall of Fame

In...of course! I'll think and think and think about my nom before I finally get tired of thinking and just go with one:p

Re: 22nd Hall of Fame

Gonna finish the western HoF in the next 3/4 days, and the Personal Recomendations in the week or 2 after, so this will be alright! In!

Hope you haven't forgotten about the Noir Hof, the deadline is June 1st. So far you haven't reviewed any of the nominations.

I know! :) That's under control as well! :) Will review my first one tomorrow!

Re: 22nd Hall of Fame

I might have to sit this one out due to work, guys. 🙁

Re: 22nd Hall of Fame

4 noms already! Thanks guys!

Taking a wait and see approach here. I’m still working a lot at work, but that may be coming to an end soon.
I’ve just been too exhausted to watch movies lately. Which sucks 😫

Re: 22nd Hall of Fame

Yahoo! I sent my nom in and I just checked and no one so far on this thread has watched it before. This should be fun:)

Re: 22nd Hall of Fame

I'll probably wait for the reveal before making my mind.

Trying to avoid repeat viewings, so I'll wait for the reveal as well.

Can anyone else see the photo on the 1st post? I can't.

you (and in fact everyone) have seen my nom but LB shows that you gave it a 4.5 so at least it would be a fun watch:p

which brings up the question why I'm even nominating something everyone has watched... well I looked through and I don't think I could nominate something no one has seen yet, most of my options are very very well known at the moment and I love this movie to death so I just picked it.

That's so weird. I seen the photo on the 1st post yesterday, but today it just a small place holder.

Can anyone else see it?

That's been a long time debate in HoFs. Some prefer nominations to be unique & underseen. Others think an HoF should be about nominating the best of the best.

To me what's cool about a general HoF is the diversity, as we get a good mixture. This time I picked a well known, but underseen classic film. So far no one has seen it, that's posted on the thread.

I saw it yesterday and can still see it today. Maybe try clearing your cache? That usually sorts out little weird issues like that.
