Attention VOTE: Battle of the Films

[criterionmaster]

Come up with 250 or around there of the best films of all-time and then make seeds. And set it up like the directors battle! Go for it someone.

[agentknight]

IMDb top 250?

[criterionmaster]

We shouldn't use that completly since it is very flawed. We should only use some of those. If anyone can find any better list, than post them please. Tommorow I will work on this more.

[captainofbeef]

I will do the battle once you get the films. I will do the seeds and such. I think everybody should provide 30 films that we want in it,

[criterionmaster]

That list isn't that great. You should try to add anyones that are "great films" even if you havent seen them, that arent on the list. And for each battle try to include a poster (theatrical or concept) for the film. Make sure to add more films that weren't added.

[captainofbeef]

I will try to put more on. Im afraid it wont be up tonight, I have a movie to watch and a director battle to make. It will be up soon though.

[captainofbeef]

I have 222 from just all the films you guys wanted. Now in order to have an even tourney, I have to have 256 films. Which means 30 more from Andruini, which leaves us at 252, then I pick 5 more. 3 for the tourney and 2 for the play in. Sound good?

[blackmoses]

Post your picks

[PTAhole]

Hmm?

[blackmoses]

BeeD just make it use Andrews top 20 films and then just add some films yourself.

[captainofbeef]

No, I cant. I will wait till tomorrow for him. We cannot just short change him.

[blackmoses]

agh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[PTAhole]

Good one. He said he'd post it tomorrow, YESTERDAY!

[blackmoses]

Yeah he reminds me of you

[PTAhole]

Fuck you.

[blackmoses]

Thats alright.

[captainofbeef]

Andruini please get done before like 9 tonight. I want to get this done tonight. I have three tests thursday, so I will not be able to do it Wednesday.

[criterionmaster]

It's almost nine!!!

[captainofbeef]
