The MoFo Top 100 of the 60s: Countdown

I'll quit beating the Day of the Dead, but what I actually said was ...
... meaning if it were by a more well-known director (who was working in Mexico at the time), it would have more of a chance making our list. I saw Macario before I ever saw a Bunuel film.

Fair enough.

Before my sixties watching for the list began, The Grinch would have made my list. I'm surprised it couldn't make top 100 and I do wish it would have.

It's all your fault, raul.

Christine's to blame, too.

It fits beautifully with the first film from my list:

Very Asian too

Don't blame me for The Grinch not making it! I was talking about not voting for Jason and the Argonauts!

Whoa. I didn't even know The Grinch was eligible for this list. If I had known that I would have probably voted for it and it would've been number 100.

The Grinch already made the Cartoon List. Let's not make The Grinch be so greedy. Other movies want a chance! Serves you right, Grinch!

I almost gave the Grinch an extra point (it was 4 on my list) but I decided not to so my 3rd place could have an extra point if it needed it.

Crap, I totally scrolled too fast and misread that. My apologies!

Its eligibility was specifically discussed in the other thread.

Good start to the list.

Oh. I must've missed that part.

Manos was my number 25. And I deliberately put it there for it to be on the one point section. And I watched it WITHOUT the witty commentary by the MST3K cast. It was painful.

I have not seen either of the first two films. Much like all the other lists, I expect to see my first film show up in the 70's and maybe the 80's range. Then it will be a slow trickle of films before more and more show up.

I am glad this list is finally starting. Always so much fun, and a great part of being a MoFo.

I haven't seen neither of those films starting off this list. I want to watch both though after reading into them.

Sad to see The Grinch not making the list. I had it at #13, which is quite high for a short. Especially considering I rarely put shorts on my list.

I'm looking forward to the next set!

Do I understand this correctly: that every ones nomination #25 is a 1 pointer and on the second post, unless other people voted for it?

Yes, the #25 entry on your list is only worth 1 point, so if nobody else voted for it, then it only got your 1 point, and it's on the list in the second post. If your #25 entry is not on that list, then somebody else also voted for it.

Yes. The one pointers are films that got 1 point only. If your number 25 did not show up, other people voted for it.
