Films of the 2000s: 2006 (2016 edition)

Post by Petri »

It's time for the 2006 movie poll.

The rules:

You can post a list of anywhere between 1 and 20 films (or more, but only 20 will be counted) from the period we're covering. The deciding factor in terms of release dates is the RYM list and the top 15 of each period will go on to the final top 150. The deadline is 30th of April. If you haven't voted for your favorite movies of 2005 there's is still two weeks left to do it (the deadline of that poll is April 15.)

The points scheme is as follows:
1. 50
2. 40
3. 35
4. 30
5. 25
6. 20
7. 18
8. 16
9. 14
10. 12
11. 10
12. 9
13. 8
14. 7
15. 6
16. 5
17. 4
18. 3
19. 2
20. 1

However, these are the maximum amounts of points. If you want to put certain films on your list but don't want to give them too many points, you can choose to give these less points than in this scheme (but never more) to decrease the impact on the overall results. If you don't specifically state that you want to give (some of) your films fewer points, I will assume the standard scheme.

Here are some lists to remind you of the films released in 2006:

IMDb
RYM
Films101
RottenTomatoes

If you vote for 4 movies or less, this is the adjusted scores:
4 votes
1. Movie 40 p
2. 35 p
3. 30 p
4. 25 p

3 votes
1. Movie 35 p
2. 30 p
3. 25 p

2 votes
1. Movie 30 p
2. 25 p

1 vote
1. Movie 25 p

06-07 was a pretty dark time for movies. There aren't any in my Top 100 for either of those years.

1) Pan's Labyrinth (which actually comes pretty close to the Top 100)
2) The Fountain (Yes, people. This is my favorite Arronofsky, and I have seen his entire filmography. I regret nothing.)
3) A Scanner Darkly
4) The Fall (IMDB says 06, but not in the US until 08)
5) Casino Royale

...And that's about it as far as films I thought were really good. The rest are high six, low seven. Give all the rest half the totals, please.

6) Monster House
7) Apocalypto
8) Superman Returns
9) 300
10) The Prestige

Little Miss Sunshine got over 100 points less than last time (Pan's Labyrinth, Lives of Others and The Departed got more).

It's too bad about Marie Antoinette. Wouldn't have qualified with my vote anyway.
