Robocop. Good.
Also, I don't think the original rules were to form a poll. Seem 9 of those, all were great.

A suggestion from the peanut gallery: Set up the voting by movie genre, wherever possible.
I find it really hard, for example, to compare a Marx Brothers movie to American History X.

Try to watch both on the same day. It helps me when I want to measure which film is greater.
PS: Please, for those in the council, I don't recommend watching Nausicaa dubbed, unless subtitles are extremely hard for you to follow.

I've only seen 5 of these. Various small factors have made me put off seeing the rest. Looking forward to it.
Quick question: Do we include our own movies in our votes?

I plan to watch all these 12 movies over the next week. Even the nine ones I had already watched since it has been more than a three months since I watched any of them.

I don't, but whatever. Besides there's only 48 noms and four winners per 12 months.
But since this forum is over 10 years old there isn't anything prohibiting it's existence for years to come.

Damn, I've only seen two of these. Glad to see Eyes Wide Shut getting nominated, it is absolutely Kubrick's most underrated film. This gives me even further incentive to finally watch Eternal Sunshine and my first Woody Allen movie (shame shame)

Don't bother watching Eternal Sunshine. I don't want it to win.

I watched RoboCop. I enjoyed it, but I don't think it will be in my top 6. It's a really strong round, so any movie with a couple minor faults will be at a large disadvantage on my ballot. The dialogue was kind of annoying at times and the villain gang was kind of cheesy. Parts of it reminded me of Aliens in that aspect, and I hate Aliens. Thankfully the action sequences were all done pretty well, and the story was way better than Aliens. I am happy I watched it though, but this round is just too tough for it.

I have no idea what this is but I voted for Duck Soup because I like anarchy.

I've already seen 5 and I loved them all, so I'm very happy with the list.
I own most of the rest of the films on the list on DVD, so I'll be watching some of them this week already. I may watch RoboCop tonight. It's been on my watchlist for way too long.

I have watched 9, everything except The producers, Purple rose of Cairo and Farewell to my concubine (the "Chinese movie" tag is so lovely). It seems the last one is quite long; luckily, it's one I already own in DVD.

Watched City Lights and Duck Soup last night. I don't dig silent movies so that was an instant turn off for Lights, which I made infinately better by getting out my iPod and adding my own soundtrack. Soup was the probably the worst movie I have seen this month. Don't worry, I have full confidence that I will most likely gouge out my eyes and ear drums on the Jim Carey movie.

City Lights and The Purple Rose of Cairo I need to see.
Farewell My Concubine and Eyes Wide Shut I'll need to rewatch, been sooo long since I saw them.
So that's 4 on my immediate watch list.
