I know you were sad to see it go in the 90's thread...and I realize the whole space/time continium gets a little mucky when referrring to the Terminator movies, but....T2 was released in '91...and I don't think it's eligible for 80's movies.

Neemo,

Just a suggestion...with the holiday at our doorstep, we might want to hold off on the 80's voting until after the 1st...just because I assume, as happens just about every year, the traffic on the site is going to drop drastically over this next 2 weeks.

Just my 2 cents.


Title: Re: Neemo's Greatest Movie of All-Time Survivor (1980's Nominations)
Post by: Neemo on December 18, 2006, 10:02:48 AM
actually that is a good idea....are any others thinking i should leave nominations for the 80's open until the new year?

i'll need help bumping this thread though cuz i wont have much internet access over the holidays ;)


Title: Re: Neemo's Greatest Movie of All-Time Survivor (1980's Nominations)
Post by: supaplex on December 18, 2006, 10:39:06 AM
the nominations should stay open until 2007. that way i can decide about mine :hihi:
