"Always entranced by cinema."

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." You are urged to say which page from the top you've chosen.

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!!

This is a new one that got one vote right off the bat (so even one new vote will get it moved up from page 22), but none afterwards. It was inspired by someone else's review for some obscure horror movie that mentioned "breast supporting actress". When I saw that, I thought of this and submitted it right away.

Looks like this one keeps getting messed up, I've fixed the link now, hopefully.

Top of my second page, and a rather apt summary, methinks.

It's Raining Men on my 10th page.

I like it because it does double duty: it sums up the plot - and invites a reassessment of the value of human beings no matter how 'imperfect.'

I adore this review 'cuz it helped me to sprout my Wings...

Aside from that, it's pretty damn ordinary

Ali, I'd already 'recognized' that particular review, so I browsed your bottom pages, searched out some gems...

In my opinion, this little gem needs a push up from page 8. I like it because it is concise, precise and, in all modesty, clever.

I wander if you agree. I Gus I'll soon find out.

I wandered over and found that I did agree!

(So far, so good!)

This is one of my favourite reviews and so I would really like it to be back on my front page. I like it because both words differ from the phrase they're punning on and because I recycled it from my days working on a puzzle magazine.

I get a review of hers for that film, but it doesn't have anything to do with the review that she mentions inspiring her. That one is her other review for the film. (I went and voted for it, but didn't want to have to find it chronologically amongst 107 reviews in order to offer up the correct link.)

Cruise on over and vote for me!



I like this one, cuz the first time I saw the film, I kept rolling my eyes at what a thinly-veiled ripoff it was!

I think I fixed the link now, by sorting first chronologically and then "my reviews only", since that should keep the newest one on top.
