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.

Here's an autobiographical film about writer, Frederic Tuten.
Edit - Forgot to say it's on my third page.
Excellent! Hope it gets more votes!

This is, I think, the most masterful and inspired review I've written.
It highlights the fine distinction between owning something and merely possessing it. It also is play on words in that not only had the violin been through a number of hands, but it may have been haunted by the soul of the source of it's varnish.
I truly love this film. I recommend it highly. |

I like this because I am reviewing a bad Brooke Shields film and referencing an even worse one. I do imagine, however, that many who saw this when it came out fantasised about Brooke's hands on their flipper. |

What do John Ford and Isambard Kingdom Brunel have in common?
Just to put you on the right track, Isambard Kingdom Brunelwas a great Victorian engineer who is perhaps most famous as the founder of The Great Western Railway Ltd.

Here's one from one of my bottom pages that got a vote immediately after being approved. I liked the double word play I did here. |
