Re: DO WE KEEP GOING?

I think that 20 or even 12 people would be enough to go on with the game. Provided we are all competitive, it would still be funny. I agree with shrinking the whole thing, out of respect for Shryke and for everyone who may have more important things to pay attention to. Still, I want to keep going w...

Re: 2015 Super Leagues - Box Office Half-Year

I usually communicate my changes by Thursday night Italian time.
So, A is fine with me.

However, I think Paper towns has been my biggest mistake in ages. Young folks, where have you disappeared?

Re: 2015 Super Leagues - Ultimate Full-Year

I already e-mailed Shryke, but I will also post here. My updated slate for R5 is:

R: Pitch, Mad, Marnie
U: Jurassic world, Infinitely polar bear, Trainwreck, Irrational man, Mission impossible

No way I keep Aloha. Let it be clear.

Re: THE OFFICIAL 2015 FANTASY GAME THREAD

I don't agree with a budget bonus. Still, I think winner and runner-up of every round deserve a bonus, maybe something like 6 and 3 points, respectively. If someone wins or comes in second four or five times during the whole year, he well deserves an advantage over those who always finish, let's say...

Re: THE OFFICIAL 2015 FANTASY GAME THREAD

PROPOSED RULE CHANGES: OLD RULE : A film's User Rating is exactly what's in IMDb. If a film has less than 400 votes, however, the Rating used for the game is the average between what the Rating is NOW and what it was when the season started. RULE CHANGE : Since I'm doing this on my own, this is not...

Re: NOBODY'S HOME - THE FILMS OF 3/13

After all, Focus wasn't so bad... maybe its gross is under expectations, but it earned enough top5 to justify its price tag... I regret removing it from some slates.

Re: Reel Society of Film Critics Awards 2015 - The Master Li

I started writing down my nominees. I support Carell as a supporting actor (pun intended). Whiplash is an original screenplay, Academy did a mistake. As for foreign films I am quite an expert, fact is I'm not sure which ones are eligible according to their american releases. I should make a research...

Re: SHRYKE'S HIATUS: A PALE IMITATION - THE FILMS OF 1/23

Isn't Mommy French-Canadian? It just doesn't make sense that art house audiences wasn't interested in it. And who's doing the column this week? Unlike many other movies Mommy isn't even available on the internet, be it legal or illegal... I think many people are eager to see it all around the world...

I already regret putting the film on many slates.
Unfortunately, not all audiences have as good a taste as French people.
Many people had the movie, so we won't get really hurt, I hope.

Re: MMG site shutting down

Shryke, any news from Manuela as to the chance of taking over the site? Anyway, I've spoken to a friend who knows something about creating websites, even though he's not really an expert, so take all these information with a grain of salt... he said it's a work that might take 4-5 days of full time ...

Re: THE OFFICIAL 2015 FANTASY GAME THREAD

I've still got five movies left. So, Chien and Empire, be careful! :D
I know I've missed The Hobbit and leaving it out was like gambling but all the other movies I chose delivered or are giving me points.
Let's see whether my backloaded strategy pays off.

Re: MMG site shutting down

Whatever may be the solution, taking over the MMG site, asking boxofficechamps guys if they do something or having a group of geeks creating a new site; I just tell you that I am ready to give my contribution up to 50 Euros (59$ today) if it's forever or 20 euro (23,5$) if it is to be paid yearly.
