tbarrie Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 I have begun to compile my insane views on movies into a list. And being on vacation, I may actually be able to finish in time. ...do I have to use all 100 spots? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I don't have to put 1000 movies into a spreadsheet right now, so I understand if it's awhile before one of these polls happens again. This. I was under the impression that the DOCUMENTARIES thread was for consideration of a GOAT Documentary poll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not sure why you would think that because by that assumption every thread I started would have implied a separate poll.

I am old and have been pulling night duty for the past week or so. I can only apply rational thought to my various and sundry IT tasks. Everything else is subject to cloudy thinking. I have forgotten to put sugar in my coffee four times tonight. The early morning repeat of the season premier of The Expanse and thinking about the outfit Jenny Slate wore on James Corden last night has gotten me through the past few hours. 1 hour ago, RIPPA said: I'm crazy and hate myself but not THAT much If we're doing documentaries only it shouldn't be that bad, right? The hardest thing would be cajoling the usual suspects to turn in ballots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted February 2, 2017 Author Share Posted February 2, 2017 Trust me - Don't over think it. And if you look over the previous results - you will find a lot more movies you probably can vote for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chaos Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 We almost should resurrect the movie club to be doc-specific with someone curating it as a lead-in to that kind of ballot. There's a lot of docs on my pile of shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Opening the box takes minutes, and every time I switch to my spreadsheet and back to the browser it closes the box again. I'll keep plugging away.

tbarrie Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 Well... that got me to 93. Seems silly to quit now. I've mentally filed away dozens of movies in the "I remember liking this, but not being wowed by it, and don't remember much of anything about it" pile. Feels wrong to put any of those in a "best ever" list, but I guess I'll have to think of seven to promote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tbarrie Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 Made it to 100! Realizing I had skipped the documentary thread helped. I'll add directors and dates and get it submitted by the end of the day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
