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.

Whaddya mean no one ... just where do you think that vote came from?!!!! Eh?!!!!!!


Oh, yeah ... this little gem comes from my 10th page.

I like it because it reminds me of a famous Peter Cook/Dudley Moore routine where a one-legged man is auditioning for the role of Tarzan. The producer says: Your right leg, I like. The minute you came into the room I said to myself, that's a lovely leg for the job. I have nothing against your right leg. The problem is ... neither do you.

This is one of my funniest reviews, IMHO, poking fun at the pretentious pronunciation of rather pretentious word.

From page ten, a review that I especially like because it not only clearly outlines the plot it also references the 'troubles' the director had many years earlier with the LAPD.

I like this review because it's related to another of my reviews - this one - in that they both manage to complain about trains whilst describing their respective films.


The former is currently on my last page. Help me get it back on track?

Hm... seems that link points to the wrong review.

I wanted the one that (as of now) has only one vote on it of these two http://www.fwfr.com/display.asp?do=mr&uid=8700&id=6357&Mode=&Sort=5&Rows=100&Dir=1&Start=1
