As we head into the Last Week of sending in votes, how would you all say the 3 and a half month prep time went by?

Slow? Fast?

Pretty sure this was on the lower end of prep time compared to some of the decade lists.

I haven't been online for a while due to a death in the family, but I just wanted to let you know that I've been (trying) to watch movies for this list, and I'm still planning to send in a (respectable) list.

Since I gather this exchange is not clear- Can be excellent, within the genre's guidelines, that voters take a wide open approach. Completely unique lists can add charisma and surprising results.

It's more the "this is lower on my list so I'll bump it up way high even though I don't necessarily find it to be the best or the one I enjoy the most, I just want to see it on the list".

I'm getting to the point where the more I look at my list and try to order it, the more I can't really remember how much I like any of these movies. I'm going to sleep on it (and hope I don't have nightmares...)

It's one of those funny things, sometimes things that are special to people have to be experienced rather explained/spelled out. Wonder if that's why @cat_sidhe didn't write about her viewings for the longest time

And I hereby give Nostromo permission to nag the living daylights out of people via PM. Just in case it wasn't obvious that that is both okay and even encouraged in the home stretch for any list, with anyone who's expressed interest or participated in past lists or is, ya' know, online at all.

Yep. It's the ordering that's the real bitch.

This will be off-the-cuff at this point, though if anyone is watching last-minute giallo films I strongly believe watching in the original Italian with whatever subtitles you prefer works quite well. Which is a thing, bc, ya know, dubbing. Also, GIALLO FLICKS ARE SUPER COOL ya @cat_sidhe

Anyone remember who hosted the 1990s countdown years back? Will help finding the thread.

As far as I know "original Italian" in case of gialli (I suppose many other Italian films too) is often as much a dub as the English version. Many of them have American actors who recorded their own English dialogue and also used English when filming too. I've watched them with both audios and no matter what someone always looks odd or has a bad dub

That's reasonable enough, for myself I can recall thinking some giallo films were terrible listening to them in English first.
