I've decided to boycott any film discussions at ILE. They only detract from the ILF discussions.

jay blanchard (jay blanchard), Tuesday, 30 November 2004 22:55 (twenty-one years ago)

I'm not quite so pure as Jay... ;-) ... but I don't see much to inspire me in what's been mentioned there so far. Your nominations are good though, todd. I'll vote in it just to make sure they get some representation.

Eric H. (Eric H.), Tuesday, 30 November 2004 23:33 (twenty-one years ago)

Don't get me wrong--I really like ILE and I've seen some terrific posts about film there. But I like having a forum only for film, and if everyone starts moving the film discussions to ILE, people will start losing interest in ILF. Sorry, I've posted extensively about this in the past, so I won't start ranting again.

jay blanchard (jay blanchard), Wednesday, 1 December 2004 02:06 (twenty-one years ago)

Thanks for the notice. Browsing ILE makes my head hurt so I'd never have noticed and am happy to have had the opportunity to represent for Mars Attacks!

the one person i wish would post here is amateurist. i really enjoy his comments on ile threads about film.

todd swiss (eliti), Wednesday, 1 December 2004 04:32 (twenty-one years ago)

Eh, I essentially uninvited myself. I don't really know why in the first place, I'm not like some ILE/ILF regular in the first place. I should've just kept it shut.

Eric H. (Eric H.), Wednesday, 1 December 2004 04:58 (twenty-one years ago)

one month passes...
if everyone promises to play nice, vote is up at:

VOTING TIME: THE ILX 1990s FILMS POLL

but i just did a first pass and i've only seen about 75 of 253 so i don't think i can pull up a respectable 30. someday.

andrew s (andrew s), Friday, 7 January 2005 05:36 (twenty-one years ago)

not interested.

jay blanchard (jay blanchard), Friday, 7 January 2005 14:01 (twenty-one years ago)

let's get it on

Riot Gear! (Gear!), Friday, 7 January 2005 19:11 (twenty-one years ago)

I intend to vote only for the five movies I nominated.

Eric H. (Eric H.), Sunday, 9 January 2005 00:59 (twenty-one years ago)

wow you guys

jaymc (jaymc), Sunday, 9 January 2005 06:04 (twenty-one years ago)

way to be

jaymc (jaymc), Sunday, 9 January 2005 06:04 (twenty-one years ago)

None of my nominations cracked the top-10, but I felt like I had to put them all on my list. Even Tank Girl.

milozauckerman (miloaukerman), Sunday, 9 January 2005 06:30 (twenty-one years ago)

(Jay, you forget that ILF is actually an extension of Jonathan Rosenbaum's subconscious. There are no actual users, just different split personalities...)

Girolamo Savonarola, Sunday, 9 January 2005 13:58 (twenty-one years ago)

Jay, I lost you the day I tore it up over in the nominations thread. I'm not going to pretend I'm not completely underwhelmed/irritated with the crap that got nominated.

Eric H. (Eric H.), Sunday, 9 January 2005 21:57 (twenty-one years ago)

Actually, no, it's not that most of the nominations are crap, but I'm getting increasingly as bored as jay b. is with the rockist/populist model that seems to inform the (completely specious) ILF/ILE schism.

Eric H. (Eric H.), Sunday, 9 January 2005 22:06 (twenty-one years ago)

THIS THREAD IS ROCKIST

American Apparel and Jeanne-Claude (deangulberry), Sunday, 9 January 2005 22:17 (twenty-one years ago)

Fun hatah!

Eric H. (Eric H.), Monday, 10 January 2005 00:18 (twenty-one years ago)

Rockist!

American Apparel and Jeanne-Claude (deangulberry), Monday, 10 January 2005 00:20 (twenty-one years ago)

(that's all I have to add, sorry)

American Apparel and Jeanne-Claude (deangulberry), Monday, 10 January 2005 00:20 (twenty-one years ago)

Rockist!

Eric H. (Eric H.), Monday, 10 January 2005 00:41 (twenty-one years ago)

Hey, don't turn on me--I post to ILE for non-film related stuff; I just choose not to post to the film-related ILE threads because I think it detracts from ILF. If other people feel differently, that's fine. I don't think the attitude is "rockist" (god I hate that phrase); it's just a passive protest.

jay blanchard (jay blanchard), Monday, 10 January 2005 01:12 (twenty-one years ago)

I was joking, Jay. I'm with you completely and loathe the predictable "rockist" banter equally, if not more.

American Apparel and Jeanne-Claude (deangulberry), Monday, 10 January 2005 01:37 (twenty-one years ago)

thou doth protest too much.

ryan (ryan), Monday, 10 January 2005 01:56 (twenty-one years ago)

I know you were A.A. & J.C.--I wasn't accusing you of taking that attitude, just the ILE flunkies who can't seem to understand why this forum is important. It's nice to have an open forum for serious discussion/debate about films without the enevitable catch-phrase getting tossed out anytime serious critique arises.

I would be more than happy to do a similar poll over here, but it just isn't worth it for me to participate in the ILE one. Beyond the reasons I've already mentioned, there doesn't seem to be much debate or even reasoning for people's choices & that just seems pretty dull & pointless to me.

very cute.

jay blanchard (jay blanchard), Monday, 10 January 2005 02:33 (twenty-one years ago)

More ballots = good. Please keep 'em coming. And, please, Hammer, don't hurt 'em.

Girolamo Savonarola, Thursday, 13 January 2005 20:04 (twenty-one years ago)

You can't touch this.

Biotch.

I'm popping popcorn as we speak.

Eric H. (Eric H.), Monday, 31 January 2005 01:27 (twenty-one years ago)

i'd like to vote but that list gives me a headache and i dont feel well. i am interested in the results tho since i havent seen many of the nominees.

ryan (ryan), Monday, 31 January 2005 01:43 (twenty-one years ago)

i dont care and i dont care. viva los bio dome!

That's funny, because I am not interested in the results because I have seen many of the nominees.

Eric H. (Eric H.), Monday, 31 January 2005 21:56 (twenty-one years ago)

not the good ones, obviously.

bass braille (....), Monday, 31 January 2005 23:49 (twenty-one years ago)

the ILE/ILF divide grows further....

Even though I'm not participating in it, I really hope the ILE poll goes well & some good discussion is generated. It seems like Girolamo & others have put a lot of work into making it happen.
