J.T. Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 Many kudos sot SKoS for perpetuating this institution and congrats to the Top 6! Man, this is the closest I've ever come to the prizes. Next year for sure! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Natural Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 Pleasantly surprised to find my highest placement and I've won a prize. I thought The Dark Tower may have screwed me. Thanks SKoS for this annual tradition here. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RossWB Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Thanks as always to S.K.oS. for organizing this -- it's always a lot of fun! I'm surprised (but pleased) that I managed to finish in the Top 6 this year -- albeit by the skin of my teeth...! Wow, that was close. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S.K.o.S. Posted September 20, 2017 Author Share Posted September 20, 2017 Took me a while to get around to it, but I've now ordered all the prizes that I was responsible for (everything other than Train to Busan, His Girl Friday and Xanadu) through Amazon, and the winners should be getting those discs before the end of September. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 Funnily enough - I just remembered today too that I had to send the prizes. So I will let folks know when they go out. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elsalvajeloco Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 That's great. I thought my prizes were being used as coasters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.T. Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 I cannot wait to see what the Xanadu prize will be next year. That name will stick for all eternity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 When SKOS and I first where talking - I said I was going to do Leonard Part 6 I pretty sure my aversion to putting more money in Bill Cosby's pocket was the reason that stopped me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.T. Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 I think there needs to be a poll to pick out the Xanadu prize in addition to the usual Who Is Worthy? poll we do before the pool starts up. I think I still have a shrink wrapped copy of Superman IV: The Quest For Peace somewhere in my DVD stash for that very occasion.. I may have donated it to Goodwill, though. Irony. Making someone else experience that shit is not goodwill. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Don't Question My Logic! And with what was available on Amazon at the time of my choosing... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SorceressKnight Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 For the Xanadu prize there, if RIPPA was doing this, I was kicking around the thought but will put it out now: As part of the Xanadu prize, the last-place finisher the year before has to buy the next year's last place finisher prize (not sure if they're bottom-one protected or not.) So, consider this my offer to do so for next year. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(As far as watching, I have received "Xanadu", and I'm just waiting for the right time to spring it on some friends for bad movie night to get some benefits and more people punished for it.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
