Can I just remind people still working on their lists to PM me once you're done, so I can add them to the total?

 

So far, I've added 7 complete(ish) lists to the total and there are some interesting frontrunners. Most notably, Star Wars: Empire Strikes Back and Raiders of the Lost Ark are both trailing behind in their respective categories (although they'll probably close much of the gap once Stingray finishes his list).

Good! Let's get some fresh blood in there.

Raiders is a clear #1 for me. That wont change.

 

However, Star Wars V, Se7en and The Shining are pretty much interchangeable.

[rukaio101]

One week left to finish up your lists. I may be willing to give an extension if enough people still need to finish, but I'd prefer to be done by the 30th/1st.

[Films]

EVEYRONE VOTE FOR HAIRSPRAY

[rukaio101]

For those interested, the current number of points Hairspray has is.... 0. (since I'm not counting Films's list until it's finished)

 

In comparison, the highest scoring entry for H currently has 8 points.

 

All I can say is good luck.

What are you talking about? The Stingray says, Demolition Man is better than all Die Hards.

[chasmmi]

What are you talking about? The Stingray says, Demolition Man is better than all Die Hards.

 

It came in 4th for me, purely because I can't deny the Quality of Dark Knight, Die Hard 3 has Samuel Jackson and Die Hard 1 is ... well it's fucking Die Hard and it is the one with Hans Gruber to boot.

 

Was a very close call though

[The Toymaker]

Yeah, I don't hold it against you, there are many great films beginning with D.

[rukaio101]

 

** Is this Considered a W or N title as the full title is Wes Craven's New Nightmare

 

Its title on IMDB is just New Nightmare, so it's an an N.
