DA NOO 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."

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

3. 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

* 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

3. 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!!

The Last Temptation of Christ

I like this one because it applies both to the film and the audience and you don't often get a chance to do that in four words.

This is currently on page three from the top.
[Thanks for that, Sal!]

Noel Coward wrote, starred in and co-directed this 1942 war-time film. He played a Naval Captain of a destroyer which, eh, gets destroyed (or "sunk" I believe is the technical term) by the Germans, killing a good part of his crew and seriously inconveniencing the rest. Nevertheless, does our British stiff upper lip quiver at the beastliness of the Hun? No. No. No.

Noel was also a very witty songwriter. One of his most famous songs was the ironic "Don't Let's Be Beastly to the Germans" (lyrics here in which he satirised the overly-liberal views of some of the British upper class towards Germany during war-time.

OK, so now comes the voting bit

I love Garfield. Unfortunately Odie is his nemesis. It's always being suggested that we women have penis envy, but we know that's not true. We know that this true instead:

Canine envy.

I like it because it appeals to the psychologist in me.

Was on page 5, now on page 3!!

I'll go with this review of Throne of Blood.

Those familiar with Macbeth will remember the scene with the famous "out damned spot" line uttered by Lady Macbeth. She says this while trying to remove blood from her hands. In this version several characters, including the part of the Lady, are named "Washizu" and I thought the pronounciation of that name would sound a bit like "wash your".

This review started off on my 7th page. With two new votes it is now on my 5th page! WHOO-HOOO!

(Voted for everyone so far.)
