No Sh*t... I actually made Blaine's top 10!

Let me just take a moment to say that Blaine is one of the most well respected & incredibly handsome critics ever to grace the pages of DVXuser.
This is the best $20 I've ever spent! (Blaine, the checks in the mail):)

But seriously...thank you Blaine, this really does mean the world to me. You just made my week!

When I watch movies I always rate for story first, then look/style, then acting, then technical details. People are more likely to forgive your technical flaws if your story is engaging and has a clear purpose with a beginning middle and end (even if its not in that order). With that said here is my list.

1. Model/photographer - (I want this to win, but we are all winners)

2. Placebo - very well done, clear story, clear ending

3. Stupendous - funny, great story

4. Hangman - again good story and acting

5. Collections - well done overall, funny and engaging

6. again to return - very interesting concept, but story is not clear (maybe I just don't get it)

Honorable mentions - The Pupiteer, Voiced, Brand new kitty, The Split, Look at me, I understand You, rant, The things Between Us,

Dude...I got an honorable mention. That's sweet. Haha. Thanks man. Can't say I expected that.

Wow, Blaine. I'm not impressed that I'm on your list. I'm more impressed with the fact that almost looks like my list. My list below:

01. Collections Bol. 4: Mint In Box
02. Acceptance
03. Placebo
04. Año Perdido (Lost Year)
05. Lost At Sea
06. Last Touch
07. The Things We Carry <<Exhibition>> This film is nicely done. It should be on this list.
08. model/photographer
09. The Things Between Us
10. Again To Return

Wow, I was starting to wonder just how the heck LAST TOUCH made it into the top 10 at all, until I saw it finally here in Sprocket's list. I knew the comments had for the most part been extremely favorable (and the consistent feedback of what I heard wasn't working for some is definitely being worked on in the full cut, which made this fest invaluable) ... but that said, every time I saw a favorites list of any kind mentioned, mine was no where to be seen.

Hope no one things I've paid a mod off or something! :huh:

I was actually critical of your film in my comments, but you handle a very difficult script like a pro. I respect that and many have too. :thumbup:

Amazing, EVERY single film that were in your top 10 were also the same exact ones to make the list? Or, did you just rank the ones that made it in the order you feel should go and/or recently voted? Wasn't sure which, thought I'd inquire...

Hard to make a top ten, but a few that stood out to me were The Puppeteer, Rant, Blackout, Lost at Sea, Lost Year... Well actually, there is quite a few more, that was to name a few to name off the top of my head. To be honest, there really wasn't any BAD pieces. This was a very solid fest all around.
 
Hey Norm,

This is my ranking of the top ten. There's no analytical way to explain the order.
It's based purely on which films I found most impressive.

My personal top ten is somewhat different than this list, but not much. :)

Understood. I'd MAYBE consider deleting it then (as I've edited the quote). I'm sure there are plenty that would argue differently with me, and I'd say the same thing even if you had LAST TOUCH at the top of the rank, but I think ranking who you think should win in this manner should hold off until after final announcements, and the folks can list how they think it SHOULD have gone, etc.

Just goes back to that thing of letting the film speak for itself with no 3rd party influences (if at all possible/reasonable), vs. members who've not voted yet possibly being influenced by a respected member stating how they thing things should go, etc.

If you notice, others are simply stating who they THOUGHT would have made the top 10, or who were their personal top 10 favorites ... not actually ranking those who made it. I think the prior was the intention of this thread.
 
Hey Norm,

Although I seriously doubt my opinion would influence anybody, point taken. Rankings deleted!

Good luck to all!
