RIPPA Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Okay - I can't remember what I said the original 50s ballot deadline was (be it Oct 1 or Nov 1) Since the board nonsense and the 90s getting backed up. The Deadline at a minimum is Nov 1 now... that also might back up but I will have a better sense at the end of this month (basically where I am at in 90s results) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaedmc Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 I have so much more to watch and October is going to be dedicated to horror stuff, so I'll beg for at least the month of November. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering I haven't done any 50s watching either (outside of knowing my Top 2 for right now) yeah... I don't think you have anything worry about.

Yo-Yo's Roomie Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 I figured this would be running into next year now. It should be running into next year now. No shortage of stuff to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caley Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 I wouldn't be upset if the deadline was something like January 15th, honestly. There's lots still to watch and October is Halloween month around here, and I'm planning to watch a Christmas-related program for every day of December, then you have Christmas/New Year's.

Execproducer Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 I vote for March. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yo-Yo's Roomie Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Any further thoughts on a possible deadline for this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted January 21, 2014 Author Share Posted January 21, 2014 Oh so very lazy. Umm.... let's go with April 7 (no sense in saying the 1st when that is the middle of the week) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted April 1, 2014 Author Share Posted April 1, 2014 Wow....ballot date fast approaching. It's probably going to go back again due to the chaos of my life Plus - since Jae was one of like 4 people I knew for sure was going to vote, I need him to return Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hilliam Bolden Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Nice, sounds good to me, I've just now started to knock off some flicks that I've been meaning to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaedmc Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 I'm obviously here now, and can have something turned in by the current deadline. Then again, I do have some Westerns I should probably try to fit in so pushing it back isn't going to hurt my feelings either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caley Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 I can turn something in right away but then I won't have seen 'All About Eve' yet...if we extend the deadline, I promise to try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaedmc Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 Official Stance: We can't do this until Caley watches All About Eve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted April 5, 2014 Author Share Posted April 5, 2014 Okay - due to wrapping up of another school year and some crazy family stuff that I am sure I will tell y'all about eventually - I am moving the deadline for the final time to TUESDAY, MAY 27 That is the day after Memorial Day (assuming I'm reading the calendar correctly) - my life will be sorta settled and it gives everyone one last push... or incentive to start and at least get to 50. No one send me their ballot yet because I think I am going to change the email I want it sent to.... and if it looks like only 6 people are going to vote I will probably change the process. But one thing at a time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caley Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 Official Stance: We can't do this until Caley watches All About Eve. I put a request on it last night and it's apparently en route to my local library, so I should rectify this soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caley Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 Hey, just under two weeks, folks! It's last minute cram time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yo-Yo's Roomie Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 Cool, cool. I'm done watching stuff (unless I can track down a couple of white whales), so two weeks gives me a nice bit of time to work on my ballot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaedmc Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 After MONTHS of In a Lonely Place being on "very long wait", I finally got it. So I'll be ready to rock and roll on this. I'm not looking forward to ranking 100 of them though. So much good stuff, and probably just as much that I didn't see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 I was planning on putting in a ballot, but I didn't have the opportunity to see as many movies as I wanted to. So I will have to sit this one out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted May 15, 2014 Author Share Posted May 15, 2014 As I said - the results for this one might end up being compiled differently because if I only get like 5 ballots then I have to do something different Also - I have to create a new email address to send ballots to but that probably wont happen till this weekend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caley Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 I thought I was going to struggle to get to 100 and have to throw in a few MST3K-type flicks like 'Killer Shrews' (Which I've only seen on MST3K) or 'The Giant Gila Monster' (which I WISH I had watched on MST3K). But last night I put together my preliminary list and went well over 100 without them. Not I'm struggling to figure out which of my Top 10 movies aren't Top 10 movies, since I have 16.

ohtani's jacket Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 For my money, the 50s is the best decade in the history of cinema. I could go 200 deep easily and keep watching films for the rest of the year, so I'm happy to stop. There's plenty of stuff I haven't seen yet and a handful of films I wish I'd re-watched, but I was able to knock off a massive amount of stuff and branch out in several new directions, so I've thoroughly enjoyed this project. Sadly, I don't see this continuing into the 40s and earlier, but it was a great excuse to have a singular focus in what I watched. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
