Post-2000s: Time to vote on the next countdown

I don't entirely follow, but you don't have to expound unless you want to. Also when I talk about more people, I mean more people sending in ballots, not voting.

Please note the poll allows you to vote for multiple options, though. It's not "which of these do you want most?" it's "how many of these are acceptable?" Mentioning since some of these questions sound like they might be indirectly implying a zero sum thing.

As mentioned above, I'm not sure there's any functional difference between comedy and any other list here. There might be more of an edge to people's arguments, since "that isn't even comedy" is harsher than "I don't like that particularly example of comedy," but whether you think something isn't part of the genre OR you just don't like it, the result is the same: you don't vote for it. Comedy might happen to be more stratified, I'm not sure, but I don't think people having different conceptions of comedy is necessarily changing anything fundamental.

War.

Because it never changes.

Very satisfyingly designed poll function. This is exactly what I meant in the pre-discussion.
Indeed, this gonna show the exact mood of the community which is the most important thing.

As for the poll options, initially I thought that War is going to win. This genre has a ton of classics in every era of the cinema history, most of them broadly known (it is also valid for comedy). The war theme contains action within itself and variety of other sub-genres which attracts the audience.

Anyway, I've skipped only one of the poll options and voted for the other three. I'm prepared to post my top 50 for these tomorrow, if you say so.

I voted for ....(static hiss/incomprehensible noise).....

Commence arguments about whether White Noise is a comedy.

I voted comedy. I don’t particularly like most war movies (at least not the combat ones) or most musicals and I still haven’t seen a satisfactory definition of noir so I think comedy will be easier anyway.

Still crossing my fingers (and voting) for musicals, despite the current poll standings.

I voted for War-Comedies.

War movies don't have to have combat scenes... "Grand Illusion", "Johnny Got His Gun", or even those with a few scenes like "Paths of Glory"... But also consider movie buffs might want to give attention to the not-so-popular movies. Personally, I thought saving private ryan sucked.

*hacks into the polls*

*throws 12 votes for musicals*

*cackles maniacally*


*decided to throw one vote for pink films to satisfy Mr Minio*

Well Film Noir runs from the 1940's-50's, it expanded globally after that. In the 1970's-80's it inspired film makers to redo the genre in color but with darker tones and themes.

Or if you prefer videos



Or if you need a list here are the 1,000 noirs from

'1,000 Noir Films: They Shot Dark Pictures, Didn't They?'

Oh man that list is fricken controversial too....

Voted musicals and everyone who wants musicals should only vote for musicals! And I don't even like musicals!

I just voted for War on the basis that it's the only category that doesn't have any prefabricated lists dedicated to it.

voted for everything other than noir because that genre stinks

See, I read that and I watch the video and I think I've got a handle on it, then I look at that list and others around the net and I'm confused all over again. This is just a repeat of where I was before you posted.

Voted war/comedies.

I see comedy is currently ahead in the poll.

That's not what I see? Unless you mean ahead of one particular choice.

It is shockingly close right now, regardless. A lot more than I'd have guessed.

This could go any way!
