...make that joke?

Yes. yes it is.

[Mitchell]

The countdown will start proper after Deal or No Deal it will be in the format we know and love from #60 to #1 and up to that point it won't be quite as fleshed out.

In order to make the poll work I had to include only those with 2 or more enteries and a bonus of 20 points for every vote after the second was added just make sure that two high votes alone didn't land a film in the top 50.

To start then, here are the single vote films that were included in a top ten.

One #10 vote
Frankenstein Meets The Wolfman (jmmrsn)
Mad Love (TerryKath'sBrain)
Napoleon (RocketMan)
Scarlett Street (FallingandLaughing)

One #9 Vote
Dragonwyck (TerryKath'sBrain)

One #8 Vote
Phantom of the Opera [1943] (TerryKath'sBrain)
Oliver Twist (Without Opinion)
Little Foxes, The (Velocity)

One #7 Vote
House of the Seven Gables (TerryKath'sBrain)
A Letter to Three Wives (The Good Dr. Bill)

One #6 Vote
Lost Horizon, The (GhostTownofMyBrain)
Gold Rush, The (Agrimorfee)
A Midsummer Night's Dream (Velocity)

[Jimmy TKB]

One #9 Vote Dragonwyck (TerryKath'sBrain) People really should see this one. Vincent Price as a drug addled attic exile land baron. Good times!

[held]

Good news: Just about every one of the items listed will be worth seeing. Bad news: Just about every one of the items listed will be worth seeing.

We will start at #110 in about an hour.

Not in his top 50.

Not in his top 50.

Oh- I must have missed that. Movies listed beyond #50 did not receive points?

[Mitchell]

No, they didn't. It wasn't worth wasting all those points when trying to spread them across 100 when I thought most lists weren't going to hit 50 (and they didn't.) Different story for the rest though. 150 or 200 may be viable.

Kind of surprised these 2 movies were rated so low. On second thought Robin Hood doesn't surprise me but Dracula does a bit. I assume more people voted for Nosferatu and some for the Spanish version.

[Agrimorfee]

I'm disheartened that we don't have pretty and/or clever pictures or quotes and indie rock references as intros...but perhaps in a list such as this, that would be asking too much of our distinguished vote tabulator and MC. Lookin' good irregardless. Carry on.

[Slackmo]

When do you start bumping up the production value--#50?

[Mitchell]

The stops will be pulled out at #60. There are many more Dracula related films to come.

Much better than Adam Sandler's crappy version. At least Wynona, Steve B. & John T. were in it.
