Did Omar ever confirm the number of ballots turned in for this poll? I would hope for 2X in the next one.
― Steamtable Willie (WmC), Wednesday, 22 February 2012 18:16 (twelve years ago) link
in the end 36 ballots were turned in, which was a bit lower than i was hoping for but it's all good. i'm still furious (furious!!) that DJP and jjjusten didn't vote. angry!!
― omar little, Wednesday, 22 February 2012 18:23 (twelve years ago) link
jjjusten would have boosted by death race 2000 vote, but I wonder, would DJP have helped me push Pirates of the Caribbean over the top?

Okay ams. Go ahead. Poll it again. Poll it again. You're the ace film man, poll it again. It's a simple list, just poll it again. Poll what you say! Poll it again! Poll it again!! Two polls, ballots come through here, polls cancel other out. Oh my? Where'd you learn that?

"There is no director living except maybe Kurosawa, Bergman, or Antonioni that I would fall down and do anything for. I met Antonioni three years ago in Taormina at a film festival. I introduced myself and told him that I adored his movies, his contributions to film, because he was the first guy who really started making films about the reality of the vacuity between people, the difficulty in traversing this space between lovers in modern day... and he never gives you an answer, Antonioni – that's the beautiful thing."[3]

it's a very easy movie for people to feel superior about because all movies that have anything to do with dreams must be surreal freakouts even though most people's dreams aren't like that

Most of my dreams end up with Neil Diamond or Robert Smith singing beeping alarm clock songs.
― Janet Snakehole (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 22 February 2012 22:16 (twelve years ago) link
no no no, it's easy to feel superior cos it's a v. mediocre action flick with nerd accessories to make it seem deep, man
― contreatable logorrhea (Noodle Vague), Wednesday, 22 February 2012 22:16 (twelve years ago) link
most people's dreams ARE like action movies with huge explosions, car chases, and guys in uniforms with guns tho
― erotic war comedy pollster (Shakey Mo Collier), Wednesday, 22 February 2012 22:16 (twelve years ago) link
i find that it's easy to feel superior abt inception mostly because it sucks
― Little GTFO (contenderizer), Wednesday, 22 February 2012 22:17 (twelve years ago) link
also cos Chris Nolan is a tool

I don't "feel superior" about bad movies, mostly I just get irritated about sitting through them

I mostly laughed my way through Inception tbh - any time Lenny tried to "emote" with his doughface or someone launched into exposition about how dreams "work" in particulr
― erotic war comedy pollster (Shakey Mo Collier), Wednesday, 22 February 2012 22:18 (twelve years ago) link
i like Inception OK, but omar's fake-out of it getting the #3 spot was jarring (and classic!)

ironically, i liked inception more than shutter island because, as far as movies about sweaty bigface missing his dead wife go, inception was more of a surreal freakout.

you guys got the memo that 'inception' didn't actually place in the top 75, right, just checking. i could do a florida recount if it would please you, though.
