GRcade's Films 2009 - General Discussion Thread

[IGM]

XXX (oh god no! There must be more)

xXx 2: The Next Level

I was not aware of another one... actually, wait. They made it without vin diesel (is that a french wine insult) didn't they?

My list of actually seen movies beginning with X comes to 4, 3x Xmen and 1x XXX. I may abstain...

X-Men 2 is better than X-Men, I'm proving my insane point wrong a little bit at a time.

Ah, heck, I may just put all three in.

There was no need to keep it open long it was all one way traffic

[Rubix]

Soooooooooooo I have been doing some noggin thinking and I would like this to keep going over the years and beyond



..................anyway, I have been thinking about this Star Wars and LotR issue. Now the question I am asking is should E be changed to the film that won second place, Revote without Empire Strikes back or just leave it as it is?

Questions on a postcard Or just reply here will be fine

P.S

X votes shut soon and Numbers tomorrow \o/

[Zellery]

The Empire Strikes Back has to stay of course.

Regardless, it would be nice if you left it open long enough (say 24 hours) so that those who aren't able to come on here during the working day get a chance to vote. I see the same has happened with X. Kinda makes nominating pointless if we can't all then go on to vote.

[satriales]

Another potential change for next time could be to have the 10 films with the most nominations go up for the vote, instead of just films with 3 or more votes, as in some cases like 'x' where everyone nominates the same film (or doesn't see the topic in time and misses a chance to nominate) you end up with only 3 films to vote on.

(The) Wrestler won W

Nominations for Numbers up

[RetroBait]

Q just ruins that list. Everything else is between great and amaze. Q is just a Q.

Revote

[Rubix]

[Banjo]

Hom many nominations do we get for the Decades selection?

Up to 10. Nomination topics will be open longer too and there will be no polls it will go on nominations only.

Top 5 films will make the list from each decade

[Drumstick]

Are we just listing ten films or will we be required to rank them?

[Banjo]

My thoughts exactly. Will there be a points system akin to the Best Games thread from a couple months back?

Ranked. All will become clear on Monday but you will put your top films 1-10, 1 will get 10 points, 2 = 9 etc etc.

[Rubix]

This is what I made

Rules

- Up to 10 Films only anymore and your votes wont count
- Films will have a score system so please rate your films 1-10 (No Polls)
- You can edit your nominations until the topic is closed (Edit only do not create a new nomination post)
- Any film starting with "The" please place the "The" in brackets at the start
- Please add the year of the film next to all your films
- Please use the discussion thead for all discussions

The Wrestler won W!

Before people come in here and complain that WALL-E should have won, I advise you to actually go and watch the winner first if you haven't already done so.
