The Personal Recommendation Hall of Fame III: Foreign Language Edition

Sounds like fun. Sign me up!

Great, you've been so good in the Roulette thread. Keep in mind that you're picking from movies that people haven't crossed off in their lists section.

So, just to be clear, the amount of films I would have to watch would depend on the amount of people that join in?

And what about the deadline?

June 5 and I picked that so that it's a few days before the deadline to submit a ballot for the countdown.

Going to strongly consider this

I'm in

I'm a bit wary about that deadline. I'm currently behind on the HOF24, which it's supposed to end Mid-April, plus I have my own Monthly Movie Loot challenge, so I don't know. I like the premise a lot, but I'll think about it.

Take a peek Sunday to see how many members there are. 11 members would equal 1 movie per week.

Yeah, that's more or less what I was thinking. Thanks!

Just to be clear, the goal is still the same as in the 1st Personal Recommendation?
I ask because there's some new people joining and they might assume the goal is like the 24th HoF where the member picks films that they love...but here we choose films for others that hopefully they will love and will rate high, and the person with the highest score wins.

Same goal

I though so, good...I'll join!

For everyone who joins, when picking a movie for me that I hopefully will love remember I don't like gratuitous violence or gratuitous sex, I have to watch these films with my wife and we both don't like extreme, dark disturbing stuff, I hate gore horror films.

I'm in.
I've been incredibly lucky with the recommendations in the two prior Personal Recs so pretty excited for what folks pick for me on this one

I'm in.

I'll play.

Can you say again how we know which films people have and have not seen? (Am I supposed to be filling out lists somewhere for others to look at?)

And for anyone picking a film for me, I do not watch films from directors or actors who are sexual predators, and especially people who have victimized children. So if you recommend me something from someone like Victor Salva or Roman Polanski, I won't be sassy/salty about it, I simply will not watch that film. (Not that anyone trying to win this thing would recommend me such a film, but just a general heads up). Same thing goes for films featuring unsimulated animal abuse/violence. I am not opposed to violence or even disturbing content, but harm that has been done to actual living beings completely ruins a film for me. Work and life have been stressful, and I'm not going to bend this personal preference just to be "in the spirit of the game" or whatever. If you are concerned about a film, just give me the title and I'll be happy to let you know if I'd consider it to be in the no-zone.

In your Profile, click on Lists, go to the bottom of them, click View All Lists and fill each one out.
