SA:MOU = Self-Assessment: Moving On Up
DA 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!!

I really like reviews that do multiple duty - and not just in the pun department. So -

From my 4th page comes an opportunity not only to correctly refer to the film and its star - Murder in the First, Kevin Bacon - but to allude to the specific count of murder -- AND to the popular game called Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon. But that's not all - oh, no - because there's also an evocation of temperature - i.e. degrees of Kelvin, which may be irrelevant, but what the hell!

I like this review because, in a film starring both Fay Wray and John Wray, and called "Dr X", well, it seemed apposite.

Actually, that review is so good I actually remember voting for it ages ago - and wish I could do so again

I like this one because when I saw the film as a child, it made me think that the award alluded to was named after the person in question: top of eighth page.

As simple as this play on 'bar' is, I have always found this review funny.
