I think we are still in the primaries!
I think there should be some behind the scenes negotiations going on. We're a friendly group, so I wouldn't expect any blatant arm twisting, but a little benign bribery would be OK.
It pays to remember that I am the head of a household (1) representing three votes. I am fond of railroad films and refrigerated Kodak 100D cartridges!
Don't try to negotiate with my wife...she wants a new car!
(-Just saying! )
Notes:
(1) Not that this status has ever meant that much!

You are right Steve. I can't fit the IMAX Projector and the Lone Star beer in the trunk of the Mustang. The IMAX will have to stay.

I would like to add Jason and the Argonauts to the list. It`s the full length Derann print.
I would love to see Interstellar in 70mm. When I saw The Force Awakkens in 70mm in Fort Worth, TX, they told me they told me the film on the platter weighed a couple hundred pounds.

I saw Interstellar in 70mm twice at the Ziegfield Theater, NY. After that experience, watching it on DVD doesn't compare. I can't make it to CineSea, otherwise I would have offered one of my own Super 8 features. Have fun.

This is the largest number of films we've ever had to choose from! The email with the survey link has been sent out. If you haven't received yours, let me know.
Please respond by October 14th. There's always the chance we'll need a runoff!

I have to go with "Aliens," since I feel as an adventure film, it really needs to be seen on the big screen.
Not only that, but I haven't seen it in forever and I think we should see a film where we all can have a fun time reacting to it like we do with the Crimson Ghost series!

Less than a day left to vote for the feature presentation for Friday night - and only a week left until we see each other again!
