GMD Social Poll: Top Ten Films of 1988

[CiG]

RYM film chart

Please submit your lists by NOVEMBER 16th.

Not sure if this game will be popular, I mean how many people have seen 10 films from any given year let alone more than 10 films so they can create a list of quality? I tried to choose a fairly popular year for the testing round so if this one fails out the ass, I'll just end the idea here.

(I've decided to not include animated films in my lists, it's up to you if you follow suit.)

Rules:

- Please submit at least 5 films.
- First place in your rankings gets 10 points, 2nd gets 9, etcetc, 10th gets 1.
- Feel free to post more than 10, but only the top 10 will get points.
- Feel free to post less than 10, the same scoring will apply.
- Feel free not to rank your picks, in which case all ten picks will get 5.5 points.
- If you're so much of a dick that you have to post more than 10 unranked picks, the maths will be worked out.

I've given this game a month to submit lists so take your time. Bloodsport will probably be in my list but I need to rewatch it, same with Dead Ringers.

 

[Slammed]

Hang five while I go back and re-watch all the movies from 1988 so I can get an accurate tally

 

[CiG]

Do it in a month fuckboi.

 

[Slammed]

I'm busy for the rest of the month, gotta do it now.

 

[CiG]

That's going to be brutal.

Edit: an alternative if you're too busy is to just submit an unranked list so every film gets a 5.5, keep that in mind.

 

[Slammed]

Off to the shop to by all the DVD's now
I'll watch them all in 20x speed I'll get through them by tonight.

I'll be able to scrape a decent 10 together, just. Hell Comes to Frogtown happens to be next on my watch list and I'm keen to check out Maniac Cop. I also need to rewatch Child's Play as it's been waay too long, but otherwise I find movies easier to rank than music.

 

[Slammed]

1. The Naked Gun: From The Files Of Police Squad
2. Eat The Rich
3. Die Hard
4. Caddyshack II
5. Iron Eagle II
6. Rikky And Pete
7. Hellbound: Hellraiser II
8. Child’s Play

I approve of this poll idea. We really are a bunch of autists on this forum with all this ranking

I’m not even sure I’ve watched 10 movies from this year, but I’ll see what I can cook up

 

[Vegard Pompey]

Have I seen enough movies from this year to participate? I guess I'll check my criticker ratings:

...yeah, I don't think I'm participating in this poll.

 

[CiG]

You suck.

 

[challenge_everything]

One of the films in my list can be streamed free on Youtube



One of the most batshit crazy, funny docos I've seen.

 

[no country for old wainds]

fuck yeah i'm into this in theory. i'll try to bash through my wishlist for this year over the next month or so.
