RySenkari Posted December 14, 2011 Author Share Posted December 14, 2011 Little break before the top ten. Obviously you can figure out what films will be in the top 10 and hazard a decent guess at the order, but can you figure out my #1?Also, as to in-depth reviews, I'll be commenting on random films most likely starting tonight or tomorrow, particularly films I liked (i.e. the ones in my top 25). If you want reviews on any film at all, including films I gave a disappointing review to, feel free to ask and I'll do my best to write something.

Impact Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Yep, it is. I felt pleased with my final draft. Funny I feel more confident this year with just 1 big film then I have in the past with multiple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dark Alfred Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Do you think that Seventh Seal could have been easily in the top 10 if it's more detailed? Great job, BTW, I must say I agree with the top 2, would have put The Morrow at #3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RySenkari Posted December 14, 2011 Author Share Posted December 14, 2011 Seventh Seal got into the top 15 mostly because of its outstanding cast. More detail probably wouldn't have budged the film much. It didn't really NEED a remake, but unlike To Kill A Mockingbird, Seventh Seal could potentially be improved by a modern remake with better set pieces and a great cast, so that's why I liked it so much. Tom Cruise is no Max von Sydow, though. Ironic considering their roles in Minority Report Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4815162342 Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 1. AND THE BAND PLAYED ON I don't know how you keep doing it, Numbers. You're the master, you really are. I'm just glad Streep isn't going against Gillies. It's based on a non-fiction novel I have with me at my apartment so I had help in making it work. Thanks for the appreciation. Streep's role is one I had a bit of difficulty with since in the book she really doesn't have a consistent narrative arc, her character just shows up now and then involved with one thing or another. So getting Dritz something close to an arc was a struggle. There may be some supporting actresses I think better. Perhaps you could shed some light on what male actors should be pushed for an Oscar. Nothing for me really sticks out as a lead since it's an ensemble film but maybe you have an idea. Also for supporting I'm unsure who to push.
