OSM's TOP 50 Movies Contest – Voting

[King Noel]

@DWilson Thanks mate. Yeah I love War movies, they are the best. I was gonna put The Last Samurai and Alexander but I wanted some other genre on my list other than full historical war type.

[AlbertoSab12]

By the way, after this voting closes, we can do another, for instance, your top songs, cities, books... there are plenty of possibilities. What do you think?

[WrinkledPaulsack]

@AlbertoSab12 I like that idea. Picking ten favourite songs would be excruciatingly difficult for me as a big music fan. But it would be interesting for sure!

[King Noel]

@AlbertoSab12 Yeah that is like the old game I used to host on forums, which was called Sheep game and had over 30 forum members participating in it.

[ruby2003]

@AlbertoSab12 That sounds like a really good idea! But like Paul said it would be very hard to pick 10 songs

[ruby2003]

@King-Noel That was a great game! It would be great if it were to be brought back

[King Noel]

@ruby2003 Yeah, but it took a lot of my time when I had like 30 members. Putting all answers in excel spreadsheet counting and it got bored after a while. Maybe it can be brought back later or if anyone else wants to host it then that would be good. :thumbsup_tone4:

I mentioned only foreign (for me) movies. There are many more great Russian films, but as I suppose it's rather difficult for foreigners to understand them entirely just as to understand the enigmatic Russian soul

[King Noel]

@Majstor-Matt How about I bribe you?

kidding mate, yeah we will see how the votes go so far I see lots of good lists.

[SUPERNOVA 8]

@WrinkledPaulsack

You read my mind Paul. Believe it or not, it took me 2 days and nights to prepare the final list of my Top 10 movies.
I have no idea how long it will take me to decide for my Top 10 song list ! Oh dear... :rofl:
