2017 Movie Madness
- Thread starter Wolf
- Start date
While The Dark Knight is one of my all time top 10 movies, it's not perfect. There are 2 flaws that have always stuck out to me and I was just reminded of one in a tweet.
The first is during the mob meeting where the Chinese mobster is on TV kinda Skyping in and it's clear there is no camera facing the group. There is no way the Chinese guy could be looking around the room at the different people talking like you see him do in the scene.
The second one is this:

I gotta check that one out. I know the title but I'm not sure if I saw the movie or just a trailer.
When the voting starts, you can only vote if you've seen both films.

Sherbert is NOT and NEVER WILL BE ice cream.
You can always vote for the one you have seen. There may be a reason you did not see the other one.

After going through your list.
Koop listed Star Wars V and Airplane
Aaron listed Breakfast At Tiffany's
But the good news is you listed 13 movies, minus the 3 above. You have your top 10 list.
Thank you for verifying and I'll post your list with the others sometime later today.
No. You can't judge a film unless you've seen it. Your reason for not seeing may be wrong and there's no way to know that unless you see it.

I disagree. Placing such a restriction greatly puts undo favour on somebody who sees a lot of movies vs someone who has bit. If you have seen one of the movies this is reason enough to be able to vote for or against it.

That must be the sequel: The Breakfast Club at Tiffanies.

You can take off Happy Gilmore. That should put me at 10 after keeping Breakfast at Tiffany's and deleting Star Wars V and Airplane!
Nice catch IRBS, I just saw Breakfast on Aaron list and thought He had Breakfast At Tiffany's.
They better not make a sequel or redo The Breakfast Club. That movie is just about perfect.
I just took
I'm gonna add to all this positive momentum by actually posting my list of 10 movies

Well, that was easy. Now I think I'll go and lapse into a coma.

Thanks scotch, I'll post yours and semi later up today.
Thank you everybody for submitting your list early. I'll let the holiday weekend go and let everybody mind rest. You can still alternate your choice and somebody else can always join in the madness.
But we'll pick this back up after Labor Day, that when I'll post the voting threads. How the voting will work and don't worry it won't be all your choices in one thread. This weekend, I'll most likely take all 90 movies and mix them all up and post them in 9 separate voting threads here in the studio lounge.
I'm still figuring this out as we go along. I'll take the top 64 votes and put them in a bracket like how we did the music madness tournament.

So to avoid rewarding people for seeing movies we should use the opinion of people who have no basis for forming said opinion?
That will make this contest a travesty of a mockery of a sham.
