Sorry for late start, was in hospital.
Ok folks, round 3 is complete! There were a total of 79 films that got votes and your top 5 were:
LOTR: Fellowship Of The Ring
LOTR: Return Of The King
LOTR: The Two Towers
Avengers: Infinity War
Batman Begins
LOTR massively ran away with that. But no Crow, Dredd, Birdman etc. Bunch of fecking nerds here.
Here are the results for those interested:
Below is a list of what's made it through so far. Please make sure any film you vote for isn't on this list, otherwise you are wasting a vote.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Onto the next round!
Each Monday, I will set up a new round for the contest.
Each round will represent a different genre of film (I have tried to include all the big genres).
The genres are below (BOLDED IS THE CURRENT ROUND FOR THIS THREAD):
Round 1 - Action & Adventure
Round 2 - War & Western
Round 3 - Fantasy & Superhero
Round 4 - Crime & Noir
Round 5 - Comedy & Romance
Round 6 - Drama
Round 7 - Horror
Round 8 - Sci-Fi
Round 9 - Thriller & Mystery
Round 10 - Animation & Musicals
Round 11 - The Knockout Round
Round 12 - The Finals
For each round, please list your top 5 movies from the genre in list view.
Please do this by Friday 11:59pm GMT (please stick to this as last time people kept voting late and that causes me massive headaches on the weekends).
5th = 2 pts, 4th = 4 pts, 3rd = 6 pts, 2nd = 8 pts, 1st = 10 pts.
The top 5 movies from each round will go through to the knockouts.
In the event of a tie, I will refer to their Metacritic scores.
I know movie genres cross over (Alien could be horror or sci-fi) so feel free to consider that when voting but don't be an idiot and vote Alien as a comedy or musical.
If you have voted, then changed your vote, please quote your original list and then post your new list and let me know by tagging me, otherwise I may miss your vote by accident.
I will try to start each new round on the Monday after a vote round has finished.
At the opening post of each round, I will put in the results from the previous round and start the voting of the current round.
Once we have gone through the 10 rounds, there will be a randomized UCL-style knockouts round (which people asked for last time).
Then we head into the final round with 25 movies on the shortlist.
Then once that voting is done, I will post the top 25 in order from last to first and crown the overall winner.
I know this is probably not the BEST way but I doubt there is a BEST way to do this!
Remember, I have 2 kids and a full time job so there may be times where I miss deadlines or post later than anticipated. Apologies in advance.
I hope this is fun and you guys enjoy it
