I like the idea of doing Actors or Directors. Something to break up simply ranking movies (not that I don't love ranking movies). I also liked that we did Comedies to break up straight decade voting. We probably need to do the same with some other genres. Horror, perhaps?

Horror,


Yeah that and Horror were my next pair of genres.

I'm thinking:

Horro and Foreign - Late Spring
70's Early Summer
100 MWADS: Revisit Late Summer

I'm going to be honest and say that after the 60's, it would get pretty thin for movies I have seen. Like I couldn't even fill a 20 spot list once you get past the 50's.

Genre's would be good, or lumping everything pre-50's into one category.

Also, I think I could take James Madison. He was a real short guy, so I think I could use my reach advantage.

Here's how insane Andrew Jackson was. He repeatedly got into duels because, well, he hated people and they hated him. Anyway, he won almost all of the time because he would let the other guy fire first, assuming he would miss. Then, according to the rules of chivalry, Jackson should then shoot into the air to basically show that the dispute is over and he's the better man. But, no, Jackson would instead level his gun and shoot the man dead.

Our Seventh President, ladies and gentlemen. Total psychotic bastard.

Directors would be fun as balls.

Actors would be good, if only in that I envision it causing a whole meteorological system of shitstorm arguments to sweep thru the area

I've been wanting to do a all Westerns list. I could do 20 off the 50's and 60's alone.

Ahhhh a best actor list would be tight.

Grover Cleveland would be a stud. But if you can manage to get past four rounds you can wear him down and you got a punchers chance.

They cut a cancerous tumor out of Grover's mouth, and he was back on the job in a month. That's a tough SOB. He makes Lance Armstrong look like a ninny.
