Contentious C Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 (edited) More likely it was 10 votes and never got below 5th. Would put the total at 990, and we're not even to 700 with #11.

By the same token, I don't blame anyone for loving/voting for it because it was really mind-bending and had lots of fun actors all over the place. 1 hour ago, RIPPA said: And now for the movie that just misses the Top 10 Reveal hidden contents 11) MOONLIGHT (2016) Director: Barry Jenkins 694 Points (8 Votes) - HIGH VOTE: BP & EVA (#1) - ADDITIONAL VOTES: Sublime (#2), Andy in Kansas (#2), Control (#4), Bill S Preston, Octopus, Caley IMDB : ROTTEN TOMATOES (98/79%) : METACRITIC (99/7.1) NOTE FROM RIPPA - Our last 8 vote movie (there is one 9 vote movie remaining) I liked this movie despite having it on my list the lowest of anyone who actually voted for it.

jaedmc Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 BY THE WAY. The Phantom Thread bluray is 5 bucks on Amazon right now. So for people who want to watch it... it's cheap to get. I enjoyed Get Out a lot, but the message didn't feel particularly deep or meaningful to me. It just felt very on the nose and silly. Again, it was a really fun time, but I wish the accolades went to US, which felt more personal and more introspective. I had a very visceral reaction to that one, because it really captured the duality inside people of color that really resonated to a my mixed race ass. I've seen plenty of "white people are creepy" movies, but I hadn't seen many that tackled the concept Us did so effectively. So that's why I went with Us over Get Out. Speaking of liking the follow up movie better.... I'm assuming I was the only one to vote for Refn's OTHER Gossling movie. Sadness. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll save conversation for when we start comparing all the shit we voted for that didn't make it, but I had it at 14. Looking over my list I'm shocked at some of my shit that didn't make it, but somehow Elle did. I'm doubtful it shows up, but there's movie that features two GREAT performances, one of which is by Joaquin Phoenix, that hasn't been mentioned yet. I kinda get why, but I figured some of the arthouse folks would have sought it out and rep'd it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted October 30, 2020 Author Share Posted October 30, 2020 I will mention this again after we are done but do me a favor and wait until Monday-ish to start revealing your ballots. Like I have in the past - I am going to create a couple of new threads for debriefing and one of them will definitely be the place you can reveal your full ballot if you want. I just need time to get it all done which is what I will start working on over the weekend (though I do have Monday and Tuesday off too). It is better to not clog up the back end of this thread with that. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John from Cincinnati Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 (edited) I'm not going through the search again, so correct me if I'm wrong, but I think we've only had three movies with multiple #1 votes: Tree of Life (3 ) Moonlight (2) Inception (2) And I kinda buy into @The Natural's sentiment that there'll be another multi-#1 to drop in the top ten. But with only five #1s left in play, Tree of Life is probably going to be undefeated in this category. I don't think I've ever met someone who's lukewarm on Tree of Life. If you're the type who's into that, you're in all the way. Edited October 30, 2020 by Andy in Kansas 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
