The Movie Poll

[QUENTIN]

Drumroll please, here it is the long awaited movie poll. If you are new here or do not know about it: It is a series of polls that determine what the favorite movie, or actress, or director is according to the Schmoe's on JoBlo's board. This is the cue to the people involved to post your categories, in case you forgot them here they are

Directors - Bill the McNeil
Actors - was originally going to Meat, but he quit the board, went to PackBacker but he is too busy with his college courses, then I met a lovely Welsh girl by the name of Nataie better known as Celestial-being, if u don't mind I'd like u to take this one.
Actresses -SirReel
Performaces, best and worst - retardinAz

We would really like all Schmoes to give their lists in the topics, because we're trying to figure out from all the schmoes that when we add up all the lists, what films, actors, actresses, directors, and screenwriters you think are the best. Since I'm doing film I'll start out with my list:

1.Pulp Fiction
2.Taxi Driver
3.Raging Bull
4.2001: A Space Odyssey
5.Magnolia
6.The Third Man
7.Malcolm X
8.Do The Right Thing
9.La Dolce Vita
10.GoodFellas

Please everyone contribute so we can make an accurate list. And list would be preffered in order, but if you can't rank them that is fine. Thank You

-Quentin
