I know we all universally loved and thought the game poll was a good idea so lets do one for movies next lol keeping this nice and simple just list 10 movies that u think are the best or ur favs or w/e, final placemebts based on how many mentions they receieve. Keep ur list in one post and ill tally them up in september, feel free 2 edit until sep. 1st!!
i am not going to be pedantic as to what constitutes a movie so i will not be stopping u from voting for twin peaks the return if that is what is truly in ur heart
Hell yes, I was hoping for this! I’m trying to think hard about my choices without getting too lost in second guessing.

Can we also be allowed like 5 bonus votes to second other peoples’ nominations? Cuz I wanted to list my own fav 10 but there’s stuff I would def second.
these are among my favorites though i’m also trying to avoid overlap with others:
Inland Empire
The Mirror (Tarkovsky)
Blade Runner
Inherent Vice
Showgirls
The Cook, The Thief, His Wife & Her Lover
The Red Shoes
Persona
The Night of the Hunter
Nashville
I was going to suggest the same thing. There are a good deal of films mentioned already that I almost picked myself, so it wouldn’t be an arbitrary thing for me.
This is way more difficult! (also thanks for the last one @anonymous)
