Fraud complete!

Whatever gets Assayas near the top.

I Never Promised You A Hose Harden (Eric H.), Thursday, 19 July 2018 13:10 (five years ago) link

I did rewatch that recently just to make sure... Rosenbaum was right.

the ignatius rock of ignorance (Dr Morbius), Thursday, 19 July 2018 14:08 (five years ago) link

Yeah, I normally like Assayas, but thought Personal Shopper was just a big load of nothing very much. Still if it beats out the bear film, I'm all for it.

Ward Fowler, Thursday, 19 July 2018 14:25 (five years ago) link

I would just like to make it clear that I probably would have voted for the bear film if I'd seen it, but I did not.

Alba, Thursday, 19 July 2018 14:32 (five years ago) link

I don't even want to ask what the bear film is

the ignatius rock of ignorance (Dr Morbius), Thursday, 19 July 2018 14:32 (five years ago) link

Oh Morbiuspaws.

Alba, Thursday, 19 July 2018 14:35 (five years ago) link

If we add a worst film vote, btw, mine is The Shape of Water

the ignatius rock of ignorance (Dr Morbius), Thursday, 19 July 2018 14:36 (five years ago) link

looking over a few year-end polls, i see a pig film, a rat film, a fishman film. no bear film

the ignatius rock of ignorance (Dr Morbius), Thursday, 19 July 2018 14:52 (five years ago) link

Three Billboards worst with a bullet, the blanket acceptance of its greatness i seemed to experience irl only reinforced it

devvvine, Thursday, 19 July 2018 15:01 (five years ago) link

xp - Paddington 2, I assume.

a shomin-geki poster with some horror elements (WilliamC), Thursday, 19 July 2018 15:04 (five years ago) link

xp
mea culpa, due to an accounting error that wasn't showing up on my log. Actual worst, unranked:

Three Billboards
Song to Song
Blade Runner 2049

the ignatius rock of ignorance (Dr Morbius), Thursday, 19 July 2018 15:09 (five years ago) link

(these are all about 4/10, i don't have to see even more putrid films anymore as i am not a critic)

the ignatius rock of ignorance (Dr Morbius), Thursday, 19 July 2018 15:10 (five years ago) link

What is the pig film?

Alba, Thursday, 19 July 2018 15:23 (five years ago) link

Okja, I assume. (How can I monetize this part-time work as a translator?)

a shomin-geki poster with some horror elements (WilliamC), Thursday, 19 July 2018 15:25 (five years ago) link

Three Billboards and all those cops.

morning wood truancy (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Thursday, 19 July 2018 15:26 (five years ago) link

I got okja but I don’t know the rat film

Centipedes? In this economy? (wins), Thursday, 19 July 2018 15:28 (five years ago) link

It's literally called Rat Film so is a bit of a trick.

Alba, Thursday, 19 July 2018 15:30 (five years ago) link

Can't believe I forgot Okja. I think Babe looms too large in my mind for another pig film.

Alba, Thursday, 19 July 2018 15:31 (five years ago) link

Motel Hell is the only pig film you need:

Ward Fowler, Thursday, 19 July 2018 15:33 (five years ago) link

Haven't seen Three Billboards, and I liked Blade Runner 2049 and The Shape of Water, so my worst/most overrated pick is The Florida Project.

Police, Academy (cryptosicko), Thursday, 19 July 2018 15:34 (five years ago) link

Here is my list of offal.

morning wood truancy (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Thursday, 19 July 2018 15:42 (five years ago) link

Baby Driver my runner up for worst

devvvine, Thursday, 19 July 2018 15:42 (five years ago) link

No film with Ansel can be #worst

morning wood truancy (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Thursday, 19 July 2018 15:46 (five years ago) link

mediocre

it's hard to believe A Quiet Passion was only last year as i saw it at the NYFF '16

the ignatius rock of ignorance (Dr Morbius), Thursday, 19 July 2018 15:49 (five years ago) link

lol at Soto's revised ballot being exactly the same as his OG except with a different #24

kelp, clam and carrion (sic), Thursday, 19 July 2018 18:49 (five years ago) link

That's low for Paddington :(

Frederik B, Thursday, 19 July 2018 18:53 (five years ago) link

mine will likely have one new entry

the ignatius rock of ignorance (Dr Morbius), Thursday, 19 July 2018 18:59 (five years ago) link

understood - if you don't get yours in by the time I finish tallying, I'll add Paddington to the top.

kelp, clam and carrion (sic), Thursday, 19 July 2018 19:13 (five years ago) link

never kid a kidder

when's the deadline? i am The catalyst, i should get at least a week.

the ignatius rock of ignorance (Dr Morbius), Thursday, 19 July 2018 19:23 (five years ago) link

it was 11pm last night NYC time

kelp, clam and carrion (sic), Thursday, 19 July 2018 19:37 (five years ago) link

you're on fire today!

the ignatius rock of ignorance (Dr Morbius), Thursday, 19 July 2018 19:39 (five years ago) link

well how the hell was i supposed to see that amidst all this chum and effluvia?

the ignatius rock of ignorance (Dr Morbius), Thursday, 19 July 2018 20:29 (five years ago) link

sent, you dastardly globetrotter

the ignatius rock of ignorance (Dr Morbius), Thursday, 19 July 2018 20:36 (five years ago) link

how many voters, sic?

the ignatius rock of ignorance (Dr Morbius), Friday, 20 July 2018 19:08 (five years ago) link

looks like

TWENTY old voters who didn't want to revise, or didn't see the revive, or have quit ILX forever

SEVENTEEN of us who revised their ballots

...unless Frederik completely changed his entire ballot, as I don't have an old one that looks like his choices, and can't tell from an email address that anybody is him.

kelp, clam and carrion (sic), Sunday, 22 July 2018 02:55 (five years ago) link

of all the ppl we don't want voting twice...

the ignatius rock of ignorance (Dr Morbius), Sunday, 22 July 2018 04:15 (five years ago) link

Is there a ballot w/ Bear film/Dunkirk at 1/2? That should be Fred.

xyzzzz__, Sunday, 22 July 2018 06:32 (five years ago) link

oh, I have his new one

kelp, clam and carrion (sic), Sunday, 22 July 2018 06:44 (five years ago) link

It's Dunkirk/Bear, actually.

And I only changed one vote so the old one should be recognizable. It had 'Your Name' at 25.

Frederik B, Sunday, 22 July 2018 07:04 (five years ago) link

shit i should've put that on my ballot

flappy bird, Sunday, 22 July 2018 07:11 (five years ago) link

wtf is Bear film

the ignatius rock of ignorance (Dr Morbius), Sunday, 22 July 2018 09:00 (five years ago) link

The Revenant. Hey, it premiered in 2017 in Denmark. Actually the topselling film of the year.

Frederik B, Sunday, 22 July 2018 09:04 (five years ago) link

jesus, DiCaprio w/ Marty is bad enough

the ignatius rock of ignorance (Dr Morbius), Sunday, 22 July 2018 09:05 (five years ago) link

Lol, that was way off, Revenant is of course oscar bait 2016 and thr equivalent this year was La La Land. The best selling film of 2017 was of course the wookie film.

Frederik B, Sunday, 22 July 2018 09:26 (five years ago) link

what's up, 3am crew. 614 valid votes cast, looking like it'll be a top 52 because of ties.

kelp, clam and carrion (sic), Sunday, 22 July 2018 09:43 (five years ago) link

just got around to watching Ex Libris: The New York Public Library the night before last. didn't watch it in time for the vote, but hope to see it in the rollout

Travel, etc.

If everyone's ready to move into the auditorium and take their seats, the results thread is about to begin.
