That does sound intriguing. . . and different, could be very worthwhile

I think it's an interesting idea, but I don't know how likely I'd be to participate - especially if its the favorites of someone who's a musical fan.

Or a horror fan. Or a sci-fi/fantasy fan...

Yup, I only have one hall of fame I still need to finish so I’m good whenever.

I looked at this entire thread and these ideas were mentioned in the past but never done. Anyone interested in doing them at sometime in the future?

At the end, points would be totaled based on who gave that movie to watch. CR tells me to watch Schindler's List and that's my favorite, then CR gets 10 points, and so on. Kind of like a personal recommendation HoF.

Somewhere somebody had mentioned doing worst movie ever HoF.

It's a very rough idea, but would anyone be interested in something like that?

If the song tournaments are any indication of what people around here think of my taste, I doubt many people would want to join this HoF.

As I said before, (see my quote that Citizen Rules posted above), I like this idea, but I think the nominations should be based on favorite genres, or at least previously mentioned favorite movies, rather than from the MoFo lists. Just because someone watched a movie and crossed it off the MoFo list, that doesn't mean that they liked that movie. (I've watched quite a few movies on those lists that I didn't like, so that would be a poor criteria to choose nominations for me.)

I agree with that. I remember we talked about doing it that way. I know Cricket had said he didn't want to do his HoF idea, so it would be OK if someone else did it and did it more like what you just mentioned. See now, I think that would be fun as I probably could choose movie noms for you and others that might have a decent chance of them liking it. And if then had seen it already or didn't want to watch it, then another choice would be made.

I actually have one for you that you'd like, I'd even like to see it (an no it's not a weird film, but was well received by the critics).

I just looked at your top 10, I think I'd like most of them. My top 10 isn't really a top 10, I suppose I should change it to be more reflective of what my most favorite top 10 is.

I really like Crickets idea and would also join whatever variation of that you guys are doing.

I'm not sure that I would be good at picking noms for other people because my taste in movies is so different than a lot of people here that I may not have seen many movies that others would like, but I could give it a try.

My top ten is a combination of some of my favorite movies and some of my favorite guilty pleasure movies,

Based on your current top ten, I could probably find a movie that you'd like, but I'd be interested in seeing your actual top ten.

btw, can't remember, was this to be strictly "live" films? Which is perfectly fine, just checking.

both cricket's and ahwell's idea are interesting ones. I remember discussing cricket's and there were some fine tuning involved, but very worthwhile. It may be an idea to look back at those posts and the ideas/concerned that were mentioned.

With ahwell's it's pretty simplistic AND an open nominations scenario where anyone interested can actually look and see what the 10 films would be and whether they'd want to (re)watch them.
I'd imagine the person featured would be joining in the reviews and writing out why each of the films are on the favorite list.
Depending on how many folks would like their favorites judged/reviewed/raved and/or bashed, it may be a continued series.

No, I asked rauld earlier and it's fine to do anime.
