100 or More Best Movies of the 1930s Survey
We have multiple survey threads spanning the decades of film, and we're keeping it rolling with the fearsome 30s!
Once again, it seems prudent to implement a weighted system - this time, participants are asked to list their
Top 25 of theatrical releases between January 1, 1930 and December 31, 1939.
The counting will be as follows:
25 points for the #1 choice, 24 points for the #2 spot, 23 for #3, etc. down the line.
The #25 selection will be afforded 2 points, in order to distinguish it from the Honorable Mentions.
If you'd like to list some Honorable Mentions past 25 selections, please do so -
each title past the 25th will be awarded 1 point.
If indicated that there's no particular order, each selection will be awarded 7 points.
Don't imagine this will be tallied any time soon, so there's plenty of chances to change titles and lists.
Of course, any comments, thoughts, suggestions, questions or any discourse regarding the mighty 30s or anything else are encouraged and appreciated.
As always... thank you to everyone and cheers!
