Ha, I had forgotten about the remake, so the original, of course.

this may just be like 20 films, which would not be a big ask really
I was going to submit a ballot but found it too difficult to narrow it down.
Also Morbs silently judging what I'd submit and shaking his head in disgust, wherever he is put me off.
― Dan Worsley, Sunday, 8 August 2021 22:04 (two years ago) link
I found it useful to lean into that.
― Andrew Farrell, Sunday, 8 August 2021 22:25 (two years ago) link
lol, same. When I sent the ballot to Eric I was like, "Morbs would be SO disappointed in me, nyuk nyuk."
― Profiles in Liquid Courage (WmC), Sunday, 8 August 2021 22:33 (two years ago) link
I tried not to think about that at all, but I guess leaning in would be about the same.

Didn't Morbs have "Intolerance" on his list? I wish he.were here so I could ask him "what the actual fuck?"
― A viking of frowns, (Camaraderie at Arms Length), Sunday, 8 August 2021 22:39 (two years ago) link
Intolerance, for all of its problematic content, is a spectacular film. (As is Birth of a Nation, but that just makes its problematic content all the more poisonous.)
― Infanta Terrible (j.lu), Sunday, 8 August 2021 23:56 (two years ago) link
Intolerance was not, I think, on his ballot tho he had plenty of good things to say about Griffith’s place in the canon iirc.

Or at least he was dismayed that he placed 101st in the directors’ poll…

There was never any use trying to game or play Morbius or get on his good side imho. I mean I guess one could get on his good side, he seemed to like us, some of us, but he always reserved the right to respond grumpily to any opinion we might offer up.

Still seeking someone willing to contribute some graphic design savvy to the rollout.
― i carry the torch for disco inauthenticity (Eric H.), Monday, 9 August 2021 16:12 (two years ago) link
I'd offer but I have too many jobs.

― No Particular Place to POLL (James Redd and the Blecchs), Monday, 9 August 2021 16:33 (two years ago) link
i'm up for it. i'd like a little collaborative help to develop a template layout and work out a couple design considerations, but i'd be more than happy to put in the rest of the grunt work once we've done that. Moka set the bar rly high with the imagery for the EOY polls last year. i'd consider it a success if this were even half as beautiful as that work.

Thanks! I was wondering if I had seen his review before, was afraid I was mixing him up with Joseph McBride.

I know one of you graphically-inclined cinephiles wants to pitch in and help with at least a template!

(I've basically got all the stats compiled and just need to find some quotations before I say I'm fully ready for the rollout.)
― i carry the torch for disco inauthenticity (Eric H.), Wednesday, 18 August 2021 19:31 (two years ago) link
Right, I seem to recall you being pretty good about the quotations in the past.
― Roffle Tolhurst (James Redd and the Blecchs), Wednesday, 18 August 2021 23:10 (two years ago) link
I completely missed that this was happening, sadly!
for my mind, the impressive graphic interface of some of the previous rollouts does very little to add to the experience. I always thank the person who made all the effort and I do appreciate their talents but in the wider scheme of things, I mostly dgaf.
