Okay, this is kind of a weird request, so let me try to explain myself.
Everyone's making lists. Ask this guy http://www.littosonline.com . I've looked at a couple best of the decade lists from big sites, and some of them are kind of boring. What makes a boring list, you say? It's a lot of things. I don't want to quantify what exactly I think makes a boring list, since that would make this contest WAY too easy. I will say that a top 10 of the Oscar Best Picture winners would be lame and take no effort, but it wouldn't be BORING. The top 10 box office hit movies also wouldn't necessarily be a boring list. A lot of movies from this decade that I hated with a passion also wouldn't be a boring list either! A list of movies in which not much happens, i.e. the films themselves are boring is not what I'm going for!
Basically what I'm saying is that this contest is asking you to make a top (x) movies of the decade (00-09) list that YOU THINK that I WILL THINK is the most boring. (x) can really be any number of movies, too. That's up to you. If your list is just 1 movie, and that movie is THE most boring choice you can make for the best movie of the decade, it might win. Also, don't make a list that is YOUR top movies of the decade, there's another thread for that! If you make a list of 100 movies, I will probably ignore it. I would shoot for 5, 10, 20, or 25. Those look like good numbers. You can enter as many times as you want, but if you enter like 20 times, I will probably get annoyed and disqualify you. MY CONTEST.
OH yeah, it's a contest. So the prize is. Well, you might have read in the picture thread that in the past I have made youtubes of myself, drunk, performing a famous movie monologue. Well your prize, if I choose your list, is that you can pick a monologue I will perform to the best of my (probably drunk) ability, before January 4th. It will most likely get done sometime between the 31st-3rd while I'm partying all weekend. SOME CAVEATS on this monologue: It needs to be a movie I've seen, while it might be funny to see me read lines way out of context, if I don't know what I'm doing, it will probably just sound like me reading the lines instead of performing. No porn. No nudity. Also kissinger will help me judge and can't enter obviously since this partly came about from us discussing boring top movie lists. He'll also most likely be the cameraman. Also the youtube will be "shot" on my shitty camera's video function unless someone at the party somehow has an actual camera. I will also probably try to have their adorable dog play any other characters in the "scene".
I also reserve the right to make up more rules as I go along. MY CONTEST
