How come nobody has voted for One flew over the cuckoos nest! Are you all teenagers on here!

by **Crimey** Tue 31 May 2011, 9:27 pm

I have voted for One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest, ironically after the last comment, I am a teenager. I just thought that the film affected me like no other film really has, really made me think for a couple of days.

Nearly chose Life of Brian, but I think Cuckoos nest just about edges it.

by Adam D Tue 31 May 2011, 9:32 pm

crimey- you can pick 3!

by **Derbyblue** Tue 31 May 2011, 9:33 pm

EDIT: Hobo beat me to it.

I wish to complain about one of the "films" in the list, as Forest Gump isn't technically a film though Forrest Gump is.

by AquaArab Mon 06 Jun 2011, 10:52 am

How come in the final table I have 5 points, yet I got 5 points for Cuckoos Nest and a point from last week??? I demand a re-count!

by Adam D Mon 06 Jun 2011, 10:55 am

sorry - I have changed it

by AquaArab Mon 06 Jun 2011, 11:04 am

Just as well. I'll be keeping an eye on you! furious

That point could be the difference between me coming in last or second last.
