Based on the order in which our 24 managers showed up and called for each one's genre in the previous thread, here is the distribution by groups. I simply took the first six as the heads of the groups and then I just assigned a manager to each group following the order and the multiples of 6.

WBA: I also think very highly of Confidential: Secret Market, but understand those who may stay away from the subject matter for personal reasons.

2DeadMagpies asked how she may get a link to films for viewing, me too, whenever that happens.

Some animation is great, though Don Bluth wasn't something I appreciated. If I thought the length of a film was a strategy a manager used, I probably would skip it, but then I would have missed the long and delicious Manoel de Oliveira work, Satin Slipper--and wouldn't I have been the loser then. So I don't try to outguess the guessers. But viewing time in the past wasn't quite as precious as in this cup.

I'm kind of hoping the only strategy people are using comes in deciding which order to present their films, not in choosing films in hopes some people don't watch them. I just want the movies people like best, not excessive worries over gamesmanship, since that seems to often cause useless arguments over procedure, which isn't the point, the cup is supposed to be about useless arguments over merit!

Oh, and animation is swell as far as I'm concerned, exploitation films not so much, but I'm not going to assume from subject matter alone that a film is exploitative or not.

I should have expected animation to be a bit divisive. But whoever ITT said something like "It would be silly to expect everyone to like your genre" makes sense to me. I'm certainly not trying to short change you guys though.. heh

And the only Japanese rape film that certainly fits that category is 'Go Go! Second Time Virgin'. Is that the master of them all or something? Haven't watched it yet, but It's on one of my hard drives

I see Javier hasn't been around but I can assure you all that the films are getting ready as we speak. I am hopeful of getting all the first round films completed by coming weekend. I have also suggested Javier to open the blog with whatever we have so far so that people can start watching.

Right. If first round films are all already loaded, let 'er rip. Certainly it shouldn't take a month for managers to get their shit in gear! Get with the program, people. Who's yet to give Javier the links? Hop, hop!

Most don't provide links. We have to do them ourselves but then that's the charm of these events. We make films available for everyone to watch, even those without access to them. It's as good as a web based film festival.

Javier has links to all three of my first round films: two on Youtube and one on Vimeo. I believe this is what we're supposed to do, no? Then he puts 'em all up on a secret blog somewhere? Or we just straight up post links on the board here?

I just need to get The Hole ready and I'm all set. I'll probably upload it tonight.

Edit: By the way, what do people prefer as far as youtube subs go? Hardcoded subtitles or an unsubbed file along with a srt file uploaded to youtube.

I.E. this:

If your films are already on youtube or elsewhere please send them to Javier so that we do not waste time uploading them. I believe he was uploading Garden of Allah yesterday.

Hmm ok then, I guess I'll need some help getting it on vimeo, since I don't have an account there.

I'll send Javier and you links to my 2 other first round films though.

That would be helpful, thanks.

We will take care of vimeo, it's just that I have a weekly 5 GB limit which has exhausted after 6 films. I am waiting for it to refresh tomorrow.

It is not stupid if I want to watch films, like, right now. Why do I have to wait for Javier to show up and direct me, as he already lives in another time zone?? :shifty: What if I want to watch three in a row, and there's not enough films already? Should I set my alarm clock to 2am, sleep over until then and ask Javier for another film?

I have no idea what you are talking about. All I am asking you is that if you are working on uploading your films, keep him informed so that we don't do the same thing again!

As long as the film is uploaded in the best possible/available video amnd sound quality, I'm fine with either solution. Though some (who understand a certain language) would probably prefer it if the subs could be switched off as an option.
To please the majority is the requirement of the Planet Cinema. As far as I'm concerned, I don't make a concession to viewers, these victims of life, who think that a film is made only for their enjoyment, and who know nothing about their own existence.

This one (on imdb) on the other hand (though equally a 480p upload) is pretty great!

Just saying, so that people who upload a film are careful of the compression and such.

I noticed I took your spot in the Cup. I hope you ain't mad. I also just realized that you have seen all my group submissions. :shifty:

it's alright cani - anyone packing that avatar can fill any slot they like, lady-blades or not. and it's pretty likely any roaming hole-thief would fill the opportunity with something better than my brain-unspooling gob-vomit.

I only recognize about half the directors or films in the picks so far and some of them I've wanted to see for a long time, like Le silence de la mer and Eros + Massacre.
Watching another Jancso film will be cool, seeing The Red Psalm at 11AM dead tired after a sleepless night meant that I felt it flew right over my head.
The best thing though is that all these films are new to me and this is gonna be great :cheer:

WBA's just going to have to find another way to watch at least some of mine, then. Because a lot of 'em are going up on Youtube on non-HD display quality which, given my low level of technology in the barbarian land I inhabit, play perfectly acceptably on what screens I see em on.

Penalosa and Javier have the links to YOU AND I, but I dunno if I should post it here because it's already once been removed by Mosfilm from my Youtube channel.

Yeah, I'll try to get better quality (I know, if I had a SD display this probably wouldn't be an issue...) from other places. But in the cases that I can't get 'em, I guess I will just have to refrain from certain matches. :'(

Having an HD display and a Blu-ray drive seemingly isn't always an advantage. :-/

EDIT: The treacherous thing is that often when I click on a link, the picture quality seems fine or even great in a small display window (like Youtube's). But then I click on the full-screen option and damned! :suicide:

To please the majority is the requirement of the Planet Cinema. As far as I'm concerned, I don't make a concession to viewers, these victims of life, who think that a film is made only for their enjoyment, and who know nothing about their own existence.
