Welcome to the 24th Hall of Fame. As for the rules, they will remain to be pretty much what they have been. No films over 280 minutes please. Please join with the intention of watching every movie.

With it being near the holidays and all, I'll give everyone until Jan 1 to decide on a nomination. Then I will unveil. I will take last minute nominations after the unveil if people are interested in joining after seeing what was nominated.

Please try to watch everything again, unless you've seen it super recently. It just makes the process run more smoothly.

Lastly, we can help each other out by finding sources for our noms to make it easier on everybody. Look forward to it!

Please PM your nomination once you think of it!

In! Will figure out my nomination either tonight or tomorrow.

Citizen Rules 12-21-20 11:28 PM

Re: 24th Hall of Fame
 
I have my nomination picked out. I'm going with a foreign film as I'm thinking the next MoFo Top 100 Countdown will be Foreign Language Films, so I wanna be prepared by watching a bunch of foreign flicks:)

Thursday Next 12-22-20 08:41 AM

Re: 24th Hall of Fame
 
I have a pick in mind. Something I nearly picked for several people in the personal rec hof, but decided to save it for a general so I could make as many people watch it as possible :p

Hopefully some of the new Corrie/RT members will join up too, at least two of them have shown interest. This is going to be a rockin' HoF:)

Yup Thief is cool. All of the former Corries/RTs seem to be really cool and really into film too. They'd be a big plus if some of them joined this HoF.

seanc 12-22-20 11:37 AM

@ those guys. I remember when I first got here it took me a while to wade into the games and tournaments. It felt kind of like a closed club until I just decided to jump in.

Citizen Rules 12-22-20 11:48 AM

Re: 24th Hall of Fame
 
I would've joined an HoF when I first got here, but I thought it would be hard to find all the movies. It turns out it's easy! And everyone helps out with movie links if needed.

rauldc14 12-22-20 12:38 PM

Re: 24th Hall of Fame
 
This will be my 22nd general Hall of Fame, only missing HOF 1 and I believe 12.

Wyldesyde19 12-22-20 01:19 PM

Check with Thief, Takoma, Captain Terror, and Spellingerror. I think those four showed interest in some manner.

Citizen Rules 12-22-20 01:26 PM

I skimmed the last 12 pages of Rate The Last Movie You Saw and copied the names of newer members who seemed active, of course anyone can join.

Let's see if some of our newest members will join the fun🙂
@SpelingError @Captain Terror @Thief @Jinnistan @WHITBISSELL! @Torgo @Wooley @John W Constantine @crumbsroom @Rockatansky @Takoma11

HoFs (Hall of Fames) are a HUGE thing here at MoFo. They help to shape upcoming MoFo Top 100 Countdowns and are a great way to join in and share a movie you love. And if your movie nomination receives the most points it will then be added to MoFos Hall of Fame Archives

SpelingError 12-22-20 01:34 PM

Re: 24th Hall of Fame
 
I'll join. Not sure what my nomination will be yet though.

SpelingError 12-22-20 01:35 PM

Re: 24th Hall of Fame
 
How much time do we typically have? Is it, like, watch and review one film a week and you should be good?

Usually one a week is exactly how it shakes out.

Torgo 12-22-20 01:43 PM

Thanks for the invitation. Could you please explain the rules or point me in their direction?

Thief 12-22-20 01:45 PM

Re: 24th Hall of Fame
 
The OP isn't very clear on the rules, but references past HOFs. I see threads for 21, 20, etc. but I'm still trying to figure out how it works. Any general rule book?

Thief 12-22-20 01:45 PM

Originally Posted by Torgo (Post 2156156)

Yeah, what Torgus said

seanc 12-22-20 01:51 PM

So everyone nominates a film. We all watch all the films and then send in a ranked list to the host. A winner is declared based on the same scoring system as our countdown lists

seanc 12-22-20 01:53 PM

As you watch you post in the thread what you have watched and some thoughts about the film. Generally the host makes the deadline giving a week for the number of films.

seanc 12-22-20 01:56 PM

I'm not speaking for Raul, but I just don't think he's around right now. He can clarify if I missed something. Usually the general HOF are pretty straightforward. The specialty ones can get bogged down in some minutiae as far as nominations go but are very fun as well.

I'm not speaking for Rauldc14 either, he's the host and a cool one too!

Raul did say we'd use the usually rules (which of course if you've never joined that doesn't help much.) So here's what generally happens in an HoF:

Movie Nominations:
Any movie under 280 minutes can be nominated, except for previous HoF winners.

PM Rauldc14 your nominations Keep your nomination a secret until the unveiling of the films on January 1st

Length of HoF: Usually 1 week per movie nominated. So if there's 10 members, there's 10 movies and the length of the HoF is 10 weeks. (plenty of movie watching time):)

During the HoF
: Everyone watches the nominated movies and discusses them in this thread.

*We're not allowed at MoFo to post illegal movie links, we PM each other for that:p but usually everything can be found from legit sources.

Either way works.
You can nominate something you love or something you've been wanting to see and haven't yet. (known as a "blind grab"). The very first Hall of Fame I joined in on I did a Blind Grab and have now and again.
VERY COOL to have ya all join in!!

Obviously I'm in as well. Sending my nom in now.

Either.

Takoma11 12-22-20 07:06 PM

I sent in a nomination.

Selfishly, it's a movie I love and I just want to force other people to talk to me about it. :D

cricket 12-22-20 07:08 PM

Oooh Sean's back and we have virgins. I'll have to think about this.

Takoma11 12-22-20 07:41 PM

So here is a question: there are some films that I just will not watch, on principle or for emotional wellness reasons or both.

For example, I do not watch Polanski films. I do not watch films that include real animal cruelty.

Can I still participate knowing that there may be one or two films I will not/may not see? How do you handle your final ranking if there are films you have not seen?

I think the host: Raul, should address that one.

But Raul did say this in the 1st post:
I will take last minute nominations after the unveil if people are interested in joining after seeing what was nominated.
So you could pick out your movie, but wait until after all the movie noms are revealed and then decide if you want to still join or not, based on what the movies are.

Highly unlikely you are going to see a Polanski film in the nom pool...most of the time people tend to pick newer films or ones by famous auteurs.


Now with that said certain people will nominate controversial and gross films in which case if you do decide to drop out let us know early.


Good to know about Polanski so out of respect I won't nominate this film

I may be in after I see all the first set of nominations.. however, if I join, @MovieMeditation has to join as I got a movie for him!

This is a fair warning, and One I think should be easy enough to follow for most. Especially when one considers the amount of film available.
If it is, and you find a particular film triggering, you can opt out.
There are always other HOF.
That’s said, welcome aboard.

Citizen Rules 12-22-20 08:58 PM

Re: 24th Hall of Fame
 
That's the beauty of what we call the 'honeymoon period' where someone can choose to be in or not after the films are revealed. That way it's easy peasy:)

rauldc14 12-22-20 08:59 PM

Re: 24th Hall of Fame
 
All movies have to be watched to be in. But you can make a conditional pick like Moviegal and decide after too.

Interesting spread of films right now.

I recommended my nom to you before as well as another film and you said both films would be a good Hall of Fame films

When you do the first reveal, you can reveal my pick. I will just let everyone know if I'm out or not.

If people want to watch mine... cool .. if not, oh well.

I remember the conversation, just not the movies we talked about. But if I said it would be a good one for an HoF, then :up:

I think that I'll check out the list when it's revealed. If I can't do some of them, I'll "officially" withdraw but maybe follow along and watch what I can. It's always fun watching other peoples' faves.

I'm not trying to "set terms" for other people or anything. Just trying to get the gist of how to best play along, but at the same time this next month or so is not a good time for me to be pushing any of my emotional boundaries, LOL!

Can someone tell me how to use the advance search function so I can see when a movie has been mentioned? I'm new here you know.

Re: 24th Hall of Fame
 
Along with my nom I've added a link for a pop-up free stream site so if anyone has a problem locating it, just holler

and no worries @Takoma11 we all have certain films/directors/actors/subject matter we just can't watch, it happens. :)
Now, I have ventured into areas of film I would never would want to venture into and discovered some truly amazing films, so, to the adventurous. . . ;)

I watch a pretty wide variety of films and I think I'm pretty open-minded. There are a handful of non-negotiable elements that I have (like real animal cruelty and a few individuals I find repugnant enough that I don't want anything to do with them), but for the most part I can handle pretty heavy content.

I think it's the context of a challenge where you HAVE to watch the movies and don't have the option to skip one that's got me a little anxious. And also I don't want to offend someone or hurt their feelings by not watching a movie they picked. "Oh, excuse me. I won't be watching THAT! It's against my morals!!" *adjusts halo*.

I just woke up like 30 minutes before my post to a world with a new HoF thread. I haven't had time to think about nominations yet, but I'm pretty likely to join.

Wyldesyde19 12-22-20 11:53 PM

Once I get home from work, I’ll have a film chosen. Going to go through Amazon and see if it’s available first

Torgo 12-23-20 12:03 AM

I'll give it a shot. I'm a new dad and I'm going back to work next week, at which point I'll really see how much free time I really have. If I don't think I can see the project through, I'll give those in charge a heads up in plenty of time.

Dumb question that's probably already been answered: does my nomination have to be one that has not been in any of the previous 23?

I'm excited to see so many new people join. I think that's great....I can hardly wait for the reveal of the movies! But I guess that won't be until after Jan 1st, but then we'll see the movie nominations. Hoping for some good stuff and some foreign films, as I kinda think we'll be doing a Foreign Language Top 100 countdown after the current one is over.

Not sure if it was mentioned, but do the films have to be watched in a certain order, or as long as you see them all, it's ok?

I also picked a foreign film since it looked like that's the theme for this HoF.

Re: 24th Hall of Fame
 
Ha! Didn't beat myself that much in the end. Went with the "foreign film" premise that some of you mentioned and it made it a bit easier to choose a film that I saw recently, stuck with me something fierce, and I've been meaning to rewatch.

I just went to IMDb, looked down the list of movie's I'd rated, and picked the first one with a high rating that I feel like I wish more people had seen.

Torgo, I love foreign films especially Nordic.

However this one is not Nordic.

11 noms so far plus an additional 2 pending nominations. This will be a bigger one from the looks of it.

Definitely a nice chunk of foreign, but not all of them.

Oh, that's not my pick. We're talking in another thread about how the Golden Globes put Minari in the Foreign Language category despite it being American-made.

I always have a few movies tucked away for the HOF like this..

I personally thought Steve McQueen's "Hunger" was a great film. It's beautiful, quiet and tragic.. just my type.
