A wider array of votes this week led to less disparity between votes, but not less competition. At the very bottom of the list with a scant 22 points was Brewster McCloud. Four points above that with 26 was That Touch of Mink. Four films followed in positions eight to five that were separated by only one point (28 the lowest and 31 the highest). In order (from lowest to highest), they were: The Women, Slap Shot, Monkey Business and My Man Godfrey. In fourth, with a rich 36 points was This Is Spinal Tap. Another 3 points above that with 39 is Katherine Hepburn/Spencer Tracy celebrated classic Adam’s Rib In second place, popular war comedy Mister Roberts ended up with 43 points. And eking out a 3-point lead with 46 points is The Big Lebowski which enters my Netflix queue in position one. I will receive it next week to be watched that subsequent weekend and reviewed in The Morning After to be posted on April 18 (due to a backlog, I may not be able to get the review posted by that time).

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).
