Here are the results of last week’s poll.
- The Blue Angel (1930)
- Body Heat (1981)
- Gilda (1946)
- The Postman Always Rings Twice (1946)
- The Killers (1946)
- Sea of Love (1989)
I swear you guys are screwing with me. Four films tied for #1 for the first time in the Feed the Queue series. Lana Turner, Rita Hayworth, Marlene Dietrich and Kathleen Turner. That’s a powerful bunch of blondes. And I’m really quite torn on this one. None of them have Oscar nominations to their names. On top of that, the plots are all fairly similar. So, I’m going with the one that sounds most interesting. The Blue Angel 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):
- 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.
- Borat (2009)
- A Hard Day’s Night (1964)
- Interview with the Assassin (2002)
- Take the Money and Run (1969)
- This Is Spinal Tap (1984)
- Zelig (1983)
This Week’s Category: None. I’ve gotten significantly far behind through Oscar season and need time to catch up. I don’t know when we’ll start these up again, but I’ve got almost a dozen Feed the Queue items that I haven’t watched yet, so please be patient as I work my way through them. We’ll be back just as soon as I have caught up. Feel free to vote for this week’s entries and when we return, I’ll reveal the results.
