Here are the results of last week’s poll.

17. Top Hat
14. Ruggles of Red Gap
11. Les Miserables
8. Captain Blood
7. The Informer
6. The Lives of a Bengal Lancer

We all make mistakes. Previous lists have had films I’ve been assured I’ve seen. This week; however, no one caught that I’d already seen Top Hat. I went looking for an image and the pictures started looking familiar, then I realized I had seen it and even found my snippet review on it. So, I tossed that out. I then went to add Ruggles to my queue and found that it wasn’t availalble on Netflix. Les Miserables was available, so that’s how it ends up in my queue. (note, I checked Netflix for this week’s titles and Louis Pasteur was the only one submitted that wasn’t available, so there will only be five this week.

Les Miserables wins and goes into my queue.

Here’s the deal: every week, I will be calling for suggestions of films to be added to my Netflix queue. Each person makes one suggestion and one alternate (in case I have seen one of your suggestions). The next week, when I call for new suggestions, we begin a one-week voting period to select the film to be placed immediately into my Netflix queue to be reviewed the weekend after (because I’ll already have my Netflix queue selections for the coming weekend). Then, you’ll find out what I thought in my weekly Morning After feature on Monday morning.

Sometimes a genre gets stuck in the rotation and it makes for a rough viewing schedule. Starting this week, I’m going to be asking for suggestions that fit a specific genre so each week can be a bit spicy. The genre or event listed each week will be posted at the end of this post.

To help decide what to pick, here is a list of what I’ve seen (or at least that I have personally logged).

Full List of Films I’ve Seen (updated through 3/10/11; a small number of titles may be missing still)
Here’s what you need to post today (and through next Wednesday):

1. Below, please provide your suggestions to add to my Netflix queue as specified.
2. Next, please rate each of the following entries in order of preference. Item 1 will be most preferred, 2 next most preferred and so forth.

• A Tale of Two Cities
• Fury
• Libeled Lady
• My Man Godfrey
• San Francisco

I’m giving you a list of films from a given Oscar year that I have not yet seen. I’d like each person to choose two from the list to champion for the next week. I’m not including documentaries, short films or foreign language films that were not nominated in other Oscar categories. Eventually, there may be some films included that I’ve seen but not in such a long time that they deserve a revisit.
