I will guess 4. I know one of them will be in my list too. Speaking of, I really need to work on it.

I'm guessing there will definitely be more than three. Heck I have four on my list at the moment!

So any idea how we want to post our no.101-110?

Maybe we distinguish it from the Top 100 by simply listing the 10 films that didn't make it, and have 2-3 sentences on each max, all in the one post. So it'll be brief (no videos)?

I'm good with that. We can post them the day before the countdown starts, so on the 31st October. Everyone make a note.

Can we maybe post the ten that missed the cut in 2 parts, first day from 110-105, then the next from 105-100. 10 films seems to be a but much, especially if theres quite a few of us posting

So I'm going to be the one doing this, right?

So here's what I'll need you guys to send me.

1) Title of Movie
2) Year of Release
3) A paragraph of why you love it.
4) A link to the film's trailer (if one exists)

You can include the film's director, primary cast, any awards it might have won, etc., but that's optional.

I'll leave it to you guys whether you want to send me your list ten at a time or all at once. If you do it all at once, make sure that your list is ironclad and not likely to change during the span of this countdown.

Are we all still planning to do this, starting Nov 1 for the Top 100 and Oct 30th and 31st for the 10 films that didn't make it?

I thought it was late November when it was starting, like around Thanksgiving, so that #1 would fall right around Oscar weekend...

No it was definitely the dates six mentioned, 30th for 110-1-101, 1st November for the top 100, allowing us to have a break at Christmas. I've pretty much organised my no. 110-101, and wil be sending my first batch to Shryke in the coming days.

Well, I'm glad you told me, surfer. I guess starting Monday I'm going to be reviewing this thread in its entirely and sending out e-mails.

Not to mention the fact that I'd better get started on my own damn list...

Okay, here's who I have participating:

Shrykespeare
Buscemi
Donte
silversurfer
BarcaRulz
BanksIsDaFuture
transformers
Chienfantome
englishozzy
W
numbersix
Geezer
NSpan
leestu

I'll be sending out e-mails regarding the first block of films directly, so look out for them.

Since I'll be posting everybody's 110-101 picks all on the same day, only put a couple of lines, max, with each title. It's going to be a long-ass post anyway.

After that, I'll be posting one per day, just as I did with the music. Again, feel free to include the following with each of your Top 100:

Title
Primary cast, director
Year of release
YouTube link to the trailer (optional)
Why you love it


Here we go again....
