And the participation drooped again. And since Peter refused to participate, it looks like I have no choice but to put Monsieur Verdoux in my queue. I will receive it next week to be watched that subsequent weekend (or watched this weekend if I have time) and reviewed in The Morning After to be posted on December 6.
And now, I am torn in how to proceed with the Screener Series. I have a number of films and most of them I plan on watching. So, I’ve decided that I’ll list the first four films in my Screener Queue and you can give them the order you’d like to see them reviewed. Now, that doesn’t mean I won’t watch all of the screeners listed, it’s just that if time runs out, at least you know one I’ll be watching.
As for the suggestions you made this week, I’ll hold onto them until after I get through Screener Season.
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 (some titles missing, especially those already viewed during this series)
Here’s what you need to post today (and through next Wednesday):
Below, please provide your suggestions to add to my Netflix queue.
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.
Preference:
Seven Beauties
David Copperfield
The Informer
Mean Streets
Recommendations:
Hud (1963, Won Oscars for Best Actress and Best Supporting Actor)
Nashville (1975, Robert Altman masterpiece with several Oscar nominations)
Sure, it’s only 11 ratings, but Somewhere’s at 92% over at rotten tomatoes. It will probably change, but I wonder if the buzz died because no one’s really seen it? I don’t know.
I watched Black Swan earlier and just finished The Kids Are All Right, so I’m working my way through the pile. Somewhere and 127 Hours are next on my list, so who knows… but that’s my quandary. It’s hard to come up with a list of films for you guys to vote on when I will probably have watched them all before the end of the weekend.
Well, you wnt to watch the likely Oscart conteners first so you can have an opinion when the awards start comign in next week.
I’ve already seen The Kids Are All Right and hope to see 127 Hours in the next couple of days, but I want to see Black Swan and The King’s Speech, too. Somewhere sounds like something to watch when you have nothing else to do. I think its Oscar buzz has all but died.
So, I realize now that I shouldn’t have listed the first four films in my personal “queue”, because I’m starting watching over the weekend…I’m not sure what to do then.
