SA:MOU = Self-Assessment: Moving On Up
DA LATEST ROOLZ

1. Look at the top-rank reviews of ANY OF YOUR PAGES. Pick ONE film you think deserves to move up to the next page - as sorted by votes received. This means that even one vote will "move it up." You are urged to say which page from the top you've chosen.

2. Isolate that film* and present the link in this thread.

3. You now have the choice to share with us AN EXPLANATION OF WHY YOU LIKE IT. Not an explanation of the review ... but of WHY YOU LIKE IT.

Who knows, your wish may come true

4. Da Roolz have been altered because far be it from me to insist on tyranny. Clearly some people just don't want to share their explanations of why they like one review in a page of 100, but they still can't resist upping their vote count.

So go on, do whatever you want to.

Honestly, I don't want to be the SA:MOU police and neither do I want to have to read yet another pseudo-explanation that someone likes a pun because it's a pun. I hope some people will play within the spirit of SA:MOU if only because I really like to compare my own assessment of why I like someone's review with its author's.



* It's been covered before how to do this, but here's a step-by-step recap:
1. Go to the page featuring everyone's reviews of your chosen film.
EITHER
2. From the drop-down display options choose My Reviews Only. [this method is ONLY if you have one review for your chosen film]

OR
2. Select Reviewer Name for the page display.
3. Find your own review and count which number it is on the page.
4. Up at the top url display you'll see something like this:
http://www.fwfr.com/display.asp?sort=2&dir=2&id=1698&Mode=&Rows=1&Start=11
5. See where it says Start=11 ... change that numeral to whatever you counted in step 3, and press go.
6. Your new page should now start with your chosen review.
7. NOW, to eliminate all the other reviews still showing, go up to the url display again and see where it says Rows=100.
8. Change that to Rows=1

Your new page should now have only your chosen review displayed. Copy that url and use it as your link for this thread.



HAVE FUN EVERYONE!!

While I've never seen this movie, apparently one of the kids in it goes to a school called Truth University, which made me think of this review.

Big Red 1

This review was written way back in February, right around the time I joined the community. It went thru 1 or 2 re-writes, then sat in my 'awaiting approvals' queue until Saturday.

I was fond of it when I wrote it the first time, 'cuz it's one of my favorite war films and possibly the only viable work Mark Hamill has done outside the Star Wars 4-6 trilogy.

Now that it's finally been approved, I feel a sense of relief in knowing that my earlier work is being considered, as well as my newer submissions.

There's really nothing special about the review itself... my interest in it comes solely from its longevity in Fwiffer limbo.


BB & WS, I'd already hit your current offerings, so I touched up some of your other submissions...

I love this movie and I like this review which references The Majestic, a film with thematic similarites to Hail the Conquering Hero.

This from one of my many '0' pages. There are dozens more gems there folks!

I love this review on top of my second page, because I love alliteration, and I love puns, and I love dwarves.

I like this review because I don't have to explain it.



I don't agree with this capitulation. If I want to use lower case letters, that's my business!

This one's from my 3rd page for Dick.

I like it because ever since I read Alice in Wonderland portmanteau words have always fascinated me, and I like making them up. This film was a gift in that regard and that one constructed word contains nearly the whole plot.
