I've gone anorexic over this damn thing... and I haven't a clue how to get 32 names for the 20s. My brain is zapped. But I just love finding out about some of these old movies that I have to add to my "to see" list. Don't worry about me. I'll be O-Kay.

1. M
2. The Thin Man
3. Stagecoach
4. I am a Fugitive from a Chain Gang
5. It Happened One Night
6. Duck Soup
7. Mr Smith goes to Washington
8. Modern Times
9. La Grande Illusion
10. The Adventures of Robin Hood
11. The Music Box
12. All Quiet on the Western Front
13. The Wizard of Oz
14. Sons of the Desert
15. Bringing Up Baby
16. City Lights

Why don't you just do eight movies for the '20s instead of thirty-two? Nobody here has seen hardly any of these anyway, so you're only going to have a few members playing. Just eliminate a few rounds of the '20s and start low.

Or don't.

Nobody is going to vote for a '20s flick over anything for "best movie ever" anyway. Certainly not on this board. Don't sweat it.

Or do.

1. M
2. [abstain] - haven't seen either
3. The Rules of the Game
4. A Night at the Opera
5. L'Atalante
6. Duck Soup
7. [abstain] - haven't seen The Women
8. Modern Times
9. Grand Illusion
10. Trouble in Paradise
11. The Bride of Frankenstein
12. [abstain] - haven't seen Top Hat
13. The Wizard of Oz
14. My Man Godfrey
15. Bringing Up Baby
16. City Lights

Here's hoping Rules of the Game takes it all. Sure does deserve it.
