I only did 25. #25-21 blog post.

And the short and sweet of it:
25. David Gordon Green
24. David Fincher
23. Robert Zemeckis
22. Rian Johnson
21. Werner Herzog

Uh, you need to watch Aguirre, like, yesterday.

I'd like to see David Gordon Green go back and forth between mainstream and independent productions.  That is, I'd like to see him do some George Washington-y stuff every now and then.

Looking forward to watching ver and roujin's vids. I'll be submitting a list, hopefully one that has a few new entries.

Thanks to all the people that have submitted ballots so far. If you've submitted a ballot and your name is not on this list, pls PM me so we can make sure all the ballots get counted.

Based on the poll, it looks like December 8th at 8PM works best for the unveiling of this year's list in chat and on the forums. So that's what we're planning for.

Looking forward to receiving a few more ballots before then. I'm looking at you, Tim and edgar00!

I like doing things the double-oh way: finishing them in the nick of time.

-James Bond: A little. But I won't consider myself to be in trouble until I start weeping blood.

In truth, my list has been near complete for a couple days already. I just spent the past hour or so ironing out some details, like making difficult cuts.

It will be sent within the next few minutes.
