Does that mean it's officially been entered then? Am I still going off the list on the very first page of this thread, or is an updated list elsewhere?

The link on the first page or in Still Servant's signature block is the correct list.Originally Posted by Girlystevedave

Nomination #49: The nursing scene from The Bear (1988), directed by Jean-Jacques Annaud:
Such a beautiful and touching scene. This is the best film about animals, in my opinion.
The Shelob scene is very iconic. This HAS to be included. SECONDED!!Nom #48

I don't have access to the Google sheet right now, but I think we have around 7 slots left.
Once we hit 256 entries, I will sit down and work out timeframes for a possible start...
I thought this movie was amazing. I will second that scene

I never said I was in favor of it. I was simply stating numbers. At the time obviously something needed to be done. It just seems like we went from one extreme to another.That's funny, you seemed to be in favour of aborting the 3rd requirement, when you posted this back in April....No it's not. Looking back through the thread when 3rds were still required, only about 19% of all the nominated scenes were officially in. Now about 70% of the total nominated scenes are in. That's quite a jump.It's just you.
It is what it is at this point but I think we should have kept the 3rd requirement. Getting rid of nomination caps and lowering the wait time between noms/seconds probably would've been sufficient.
61 have been seconded. That would get us halfway to our goal.Perhaps do away with the 3rd? How many do we have seconded?Not to be Debbie Downer or anything but the nomination process has been going on for about a month and a half now. Looking at the google sheet we have a grand total of 210 scenes that have been nominated. Out of that, only 66 have been seconded and third-ed to make it to the "officially in" status. We are supposed to get to a total of 256.
If it keeps up at this pace, it's going to be another 5-6 months before this thing even starts.

Like I said though, it is what it is. I'm just making observations.
Hearts are tough, she said, most times hearts don't break, and I'm sure that's right . . . but what about then? What about who we were then? What about hearts in Atlantis?
NOMINATION # 49
Scene: Crusty Bitches and Rag Tags
Film: Gangs of New York
Director: Martin Scorsese
Year: 2002
Spoiler: No
Breathtaking performances from both Daniel Day Lewis and Liam Neeson....
Nomination #50: The killing of Officer Murphy scene from RoboCop (1987), directed by Paul Verhoeven:
I'll make this my last nomination. Pretty much as iconic as scenes get!
FWIW I agree with you, we did go from one end of the spectrum to the other.. however in this case I just want to start the tournament already.
We've been nominating for what seems like half a year now lol.

Totally seconded!Nomination # 22
Scene: Subway scene
Film: Crocodile Dundee
Director: Peter Faiman
Year: 1986
Spoiler: Yes (Climax of the film)
One of best endings in the history of modern cinema. A true classic!
(Is the "That's not a knife" scene included?)
In case that scene is not already included, I nominate the "that's not a knife" scene from Crocodile Dundee. I'm at work and can't link a YouTube video. Can I still get a second for this?
Yes, it's an awesome scene. I can find and upload a video clip for you. SECONDED!!!
I think that's the last entry. I will arrive back home in around 20 mins, and will double check the Google sheet.
Nominations/Seconds are suspended until I can verify the total. Will post again very shortly.
Just realized there was not a single Beverly Hills Cop scene! Lol good job everyone!!
