14 films have made it in, by a vote percentage of over 50%.
We need to select SIX more films from the other two sections (preferably from the DEBATABLE section). 6 Honorable Mentions from the rest to be chosen later.
I have posted the names of the HDC-ians who sent in their unique choices, i.e., those which got only 1 vote, and that vote was theirs only.
Please post your reasons for choosing your unique films, your backing for the MINORITY & DEBATABLE selections, and why you feel your chosen ones should be included in the SIX remaining spots.
OR
If everyone is in agreement, we can toss in A Bucket of Blood which scored 5 votes, and select FIVE choices which got 4 votes each (right now in the DEBATABLE top). That way we end up with our selected 20.
So, go ahead. Post your views.
