What happened with this?

Shh! I wanted (re)watch time!

Noms still open, what happened is people have slowed their roll a bit.
I'm nominating
Miami Vice

Kidding, of course. I could probably put together a nice ballot of 30-40 movies off the top of my head, but there are a good number of key films that I really should watch before voting, plus a handful of things that I haven't seen in years. Ideally, I'd love to spend a good month doing a deep dive into the genre, but dissertation chapter, grading, life, etc would never permit that.

sorry guys, I haven't dropped the ball on this, but I've been busy.
are there enough people interested in this thing to make it a viable endeavor?
― omar little, Tuesday, 8 May 2018 18:21 (five years ago) link
I'd drop a ballot, yeah.

I missed this but would probably vote. category seems... pretty broad
― Οὖτις, Tuesday, 8 May 2018 18:32 (five years ago) link
Totally, in favour of a long voting period though
― devvvine, Tuesday, 8 May 2018 18:32 (five years ago) link
Big yes to both participating and a long voting period.
― incel elgort (cryptosicko), Tuesday, 8 May 2018 18:33 (five years ago) link
the category can be as broad as anyone wants but i do recommend some self-restraint in some instances.
and the most serious crime would be not voting!

I don’t really have time for it these days so if someone else wants to run with it go ahead.
