The 4th Short Film Hall of Fame

The thing isolated becomes incomprehensible
Welcome to the 4th Edition of the MoFo Short Film Hall of Fame

The HoFs have been a great part of this Forum, and it all started in 2014 when Godoggo created the 1st Hall of Fame and the first Special HoF, The Mofo Hall of Fame - Shorts Editon, so this is kind of an historic category.

The rules are pretty much the same to the previous editions:

1. Any movie with less than 45 minutes can be nominated, except of course the winners of the previous editions: La Jetée, Harvie Krumpet and Tale of Tales.

2.
You have till April 10th to send your nomination. The duration of this HoF depends on how many people are joining. I'll give 1 week per two films.

3.
You can send me your nominations by private message, with the title, year, director and, if you want, some words explaining your choice. Please do not reveal your nomination on this thread before everyone.

4. Watch all the movies, write your thoughts on this thread and send a ranked list of all the films to me. Do not reveal your list before the unveil.

It's a easy HoF to handle, especially considering we are doing a break on the General HoFs, so I hope to get many people in for this.

Here are the links to the 3 previous editions:

@gbgoodies

Come on, it will be fun!!!!

I'm thinking about this HoF, but most of the shorts that I watch are animated, (Looney Tunes, Pixar, etc.). The last time I joined the Shorts HoF, I watched more shorts trying to find something to nominate than I watched in the actual HoF.

The thing isolated becomes incomprehensible
I like this idea, and I definitely have time to watch some short films, but I don't really know of any to nominate since I don't typically watch them.
You still have time to find something you like! The IMDb Shorts Top 50 has some really interesting things!



Save the Texas Prairie Chicken
I will join this. It is going to give me an excuse to nominate something that I won't be able to nominate otherwise, I suppose. I don't plan on it being loved, but it may, at the very least, be liked (but I personally love it ).

I will get that nomination to you in a little bit.

If gbg joins PM me Neiba as i'll need to change my nom. I have absolutely no problem with doing so there's other stuff i'm fine nominating.
I hate asking anyone to change their nomination, so Thank You for the offer. I'll let you know if I decide to join.


is there spiders, @Camo?
That would be my guess.



You can't make a rainbow without a little rain.
My nom is 9 minutes long and there's three different things that you wouldn't er.. like, so i have no problem at all changing it to something else i swear i have multiple other things i can pick.

Hope you join

Thanks. I'll let you know.

Now you have me worried as to what these 3 things are. I don't normally talk about what I can't handle seeing, but I still like to be prepared.



The thing isolated becomes incomprehensible
So, we have 5 participants so far, 6 if gbg decides joining as well. If this number doesn't go up in the next few hours I'll ask everyone who joined to send a second nomination so we reach at least 10 shorts.
