1970's Hall of Fame
WELCOME TO https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon....L._SL1200_.jpg HALL OF FAME!! Hello, grab a bean bag, turn on a lava lamp and spend some time in the "Me" Generation. Where personal attire were, a bit courageous, to say the least, grindhouse and exploitation films were king, and doing copious amounts of cocaine was actually smiled upon. The rules of Hall of Fame are pretty much the same as others before: You nominate a movie, PM said movie to the Host, said me, I post all the nominations, everyone involved watches all the movies, write up a review for each movie and once done, make a list (favorite to least favorite), PM said list to said Host and at the end: big reveal, game show antics and prizes by made up sponsors (which, no one actually really gets anyways) And yes, if you join, please finish. If you do join and don't finish, I won't hunt you down, murder you and make some sort of southern delicacy out of you, wear you skin for a mask and jiggle my belly while waving a chainsaw in the air. BUT one, or more of the others here might - just for the fun of it. While the rest of us cheer them on. Just saying. I haven't posted mentions right away, but depending on how things go, I might. There's no specific deadline for when nominations need to be in, it may be a week from today, may be sooner, depending on how much time is necessary for everyone who joins in. And, yes, we will do the "Guess Who Nominated What" game before posting them. I am considering doing 1 week per player for the final deadline and will post the final decision/date here for everyone. |

You'll like this Hof too:), it has a different 'feel' than the 14th Hof, more laid back and probably will have less people. All of the genre/decades Hofs I've been in have had really good movies too. I enjoy these Hofs much more than the main one.

Is the objective to nominate lesser known films? |

Is the objective to nominate lesser known films? The goal is to nominate a movie that you fully believe is great. It's not abut lesser known films, but one could be nominated if you thought it was worthy of being in a Movie Hall of Fame....think of the Sports or Music Hall of Fames. |

It's fun, also it's work. If you join you get to nominate a film, but...you have to watch all of the other films that get nominated and then write about them.
