:thumbsup: I don't know why people seem to hate on it. I thought it was a pretty creative idea and probably some of the most fun I've had in the theater.Quote:

We're down to 11 spots.

Voting will probably begin on Monday, July 29, so I would urge everyone who's not seen some of the movies that will be taking part, to take the week to see if they could catch them streaming or on demand from your TV provider. Your local library should have lots of movies to stream via Kanopy and Hoopla for free if you can't find the movie on Netflix and other services. I usually use https://www.justwatch.com/ to look up where something is streaming.

Criterion really messed it up when the released the original on Blu-ray recently and didn't include the remake as a second disc. They used to do stuff like that all the time back in the day.
