The Forums Awards

Ok, this is the plan... ...

you give the top two movies in a certain section and on january 2th, the posting stops, and then we know what were the best movies of the year in each catagory...

So... what are the rules?

You can give only ONE vote for each catagory,
the movies you select are from this year (so NO Gone by the wind 😛)

The movie you give as your numbre one, gets 2 points, the number 2 gets 1 point...

I think I covered it all now...

the catagories are...

science fiction/horror/comedy /warhistoric/animation/thriller/drama/romance/action/crime

happy voting

science fiction: final fantasy, Lord of the Rings
horror: /
comedy: Bridget Jones Diary, American Pie 2
war: Enemy at the Gates, Pearl Harbor
historic: Brotherhood of the Wolf; /
animation: Shrek, Monsters Inc.
thriller: Along came the Spider, Thirteen days
drama: Man of honor, Save the last dance
romance: Chocolate, /
action: Crounching Tiger Hidden Dragon, Training Day
crime:/ ,/

(sorry, I don't remember that much movies...)

yerssot, some of those movies came out last year.

Wouldn't it be better if we just voted for the ten best of the year? Then your 1st listing gets ten points, second nine. . . ext.

even better
(come on, I can't find good history movies)

ok...

put your top 10 here, number one gets 10 points, number 2 gets 9 points, ...

1. Blow(I think it came out this year)
2. From Hell
3. Vanilla Sky
4. Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone
5. Ocean's 11
6. Life as a House
7. Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back
8. The Majestic
9. Spy Game
10. Planet of the Apes

I'll get back to you, yerssot. I need to find a website with a list of all movies that came out in 2001.

Here it is:

1 Riding in Cars With Boys
2 Artificial Intelegence
3 Blow
4 Shrek
5 The Fellowship of the Ring
6 Bridget Jone's Diary
7 Life as a House
8 Pearl Harbor
9 Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back
10 The Others

1)Vanilla Sky
2)AI
3)Blow
4)Shrek
5)Oceans 11

That all folks!

All be it, that I have not yet seen many 'Oscar buzzed' films 🙁

1) The Fellowship of the Ring
2) Shrek
3) Hannibal
4) Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
5) Bridget Jone's Diary
6) Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back
7) Vanilla Sky
8) AI
9) Planet of the Apes
10) Pearl Harbor

These are my fav movies of this passing year. BTW these are the movies that were released in the UK 2001.

1) The Fellowship Of The Ring
2) Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
3) Traffic
4) Almost Famous
5) Apocalypse Now Redux
6) American Pie 2
7) Hannibal
8) Rush Hour 2

Crouching Tiger, Almost Famous, Appocolyse Now, and Traffic should not qualify for this year. They all came out last year. Otherwise, I would vote several of those for my top ten list. Yerssot, please disqualify these pictures, as they are not appropriate for the 2001 nominees.

Are we counting those films or not? I don't think I've seen 10 movies that were released this year.

well, to be honest: a lot of movies are shown very late in Belgium... I'm sure that they where shown in Belgium this year...
I don't know about England and others but mine are still counting...people can stil change it...

KJ, if they aren't changed, and you are SURE you saw them this year, they are counting (because not EVERY movie opens on the same day, same month)

So what are we doing? Top 10, top 5? Zed has a top 8.

doesn't matter, if you have seen many movies, I think it's just fair that you can give more points ...

Well that isn't fair. It means that someone who has seen 10 films will get 10 points for there first choice and someone whose only seen 5 will only get 5.

It's going to mess it all up.

post the top ten and I'll try to figure out a new way...

(and the date has been changed, january 5th is the last date)

Just post a list of the best new releases you've seen this year, even if you've only seen 3.

Give 10 to the first place
9 to second
8 to third and so on.

Mine would be

1. Shrek
2. Moulin Rouge
3. A.I
4. Apocalypse Now Redux
5. Planet of the Apes
6. The Fellowship Of The Ring
7. Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back

indeed, I'm going to see what the smallest ranking is and that will be the top that will count (the smallest will be three)

1/ Shrek
2/Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon
3/ Moulan Rouge
4/ Amelie
5/The Others
