Actually, Rynnec, now that I think about it, I CAN count the first two Blade films as a single entry if you're OK with that.

Sounds good to me.

How on earth did I not nominate this movie last year?

You didn't nominate it this year, either. :>

:oo:

Replace The Vanishing with Rosemary's Baby for my picks. That's not to say I like The Vanishing less than my other choices. But one of them has to go. And actually, the more I think about it, I'm starting to think that I shouldn't have considered it a horror movie anyway. In terms of quality, it likely wouldn't be the first of those three movies that I'd eliminate. But I now realize that I kind of have to, especially in the face of what might be my favorite horror movie of all time.

Well, we still have a bunch of open spots, so if not enough other people pick some movies to fill them up with closer to October, then you'll have the opportunity to add The Vanishing back in.

Perhaps, but like I said, I'm starting to think I shouldn't have considered it a horror in the first place. It's more of a mystery thriller.

However, if you lift the limit, I'll have plenty of other potential horror movies to add in. :P

Dr. Ensatsu-ken

Alright, anyone else who would've wanted to participate has had more than enough time to do so, by now. For everyone else, I'm raising the nomination limit from 3 to 5, so that gives you 2 extra movies to pick. Mine are:

The Others (October 8th)
Coraline (October 24th)

Spark Of Spirit

The Mummy (1959)
Abbott & Costello Meet the Invisible Man

Sir, do you have any Warrants?

OK. Good choices, guys. I actually haven't seen most of these outside of AAC, which is great, but I do hope that I have time to watch them all.

EK, can you switch Maniac for Alice, Sweet Alice?

I actually just saw Maniac and it's not very good.
