Okay, we're gonna just keep doing what we're doing. And in an effort to speed things up, set the number of movies to be voted in at a time to 5 so we can get through the obvious ones. I have a feeling once we get to the 30-50 range, we'll start to see more unique possibilities.
That means, I need new movies from IanTheCool and frankyt -- one a piece -- before we move on.
Since Eternal Sunshine was mine, I'll put The Dark Knight back in the mix.

For this round I'm submitting:
Mystic River (you know, that Clint Eastwood movie that isn't Letters from Iwo Jima)
and
Kill Bill Vol. 1 (you know, that Quentin Tarantino movie that isn't Inglorious Basterds)
and if someone wants to submit Big Fish, that would be great. Or 28 Days Later. Or Lost in Translation. Or American Splendor. No pressure, of course. I know we haven't voted for The King's Speech yet.

Could you re-post the nominees list once the new voting round starts, for archival purposes.

The nominees to be voted upon at the start of the round. So we can keep track of what happens over time since the polls are going to be changing. |

By the way, color me a little bit surprised that Parasite didn't make it in on the first ten.

So, we have two new movies from Neverending and a nominee switch from skink. It's still open to IanTheCool and frankyt to pick a new movie each since one of theirs made it in. |

The busker movie?
I like it a lot, just clarifying if you're picking that or another movie that starts with Once.
