That's to be expected.

Thanks, Camo.
I hope they look how they supposed to. They're sort of art-deco billboards you'd find outside a 1930s cinema. With a few tweaks and additions in design by me of course.

Hope they work out.

Watched Touching The Void in preparation for this list. It was decent but I wasn't crazy about the reenactments so it didn't have the impact it might have otherwise.

First off, we need foster to post in here so he can get some rep for that personal story. Secondly, two surprisingly-good films at the bottom of the list. MoFos.

I haven't seen either of the first two. Touching the Void was recommended to me but I just didn't get to it.

37 points for 100th place isn't so shabby.

Wow, i was sure i'd be the only one to vote for my #25. That is definitely good news for a few films on my list then. I've heard of Who Killed Vincent Chin? and 5 Broken Cameras seen neither though.



I have not seen either of those. I expect any film from my list to barely make it, be very high up, or not make it at all.

And I also see Sexy is putting in extra effort for the Most Controversial MoFo award.




5 Broken Cameras
No No: A Dockumentary
Samsara
Dear Mr. Watterson
I've seen these four from the one pointers, three good and one excellent.

Samsara is of a certain style of filmmaking, if you like it then you'll like the film. Watch No No if you like pitchers on acid throwing no hitters (it's a pretty cool story). Watch Dear Mr Watterson if you like Canvin and Hobbes (who doesn't?). And 5 Broken Cameras if you want to see quality filmmaking (which in any other year could have easily won best documentary, but that year went up against Sugar Man). Or watch all of them regardless because they're all worth the time.
