Hi all! π I now have a lot more films available for anyone interested in doing a guest review for my IMDB Top 250 Project. I’ll list those available at the end. But first, here are the ones still outstanding. You have until OCTOBER 1st 2015 to send me your review(s) so let me know ASAP if you no longer want your movie(s).
Rain Man
The Sting & Die Hard
To Kill A Mockingbird
Leon
The Hobbit
Life Is Beautiful
Terminator 2
All About Eve
2001: A Space Odyssey
Black Swan
Cool Hand Luke
Lock, Stock And Two Smoking Barrels
Taxi Driver
Here are all the films currently available. I’ll update this list on AUGUST 1st with any of the above that are given up:
The Wrestler
Network
The Graduate
Gone With The Wind
Also, I kept too many for myself so I’m adding these two back to the available list. I love these movies so do them justice! π
The Artist
The Lives Of Others
If you grab any of those available or have just recently signed up (as opposed to, like, signing up a year & a half ago… lol), your deadline is NOVEMBER 1st to get your review to me. I’m aware I gave everyone an April 1st deadline already but this time I REALLY mean it. I’ll put any that don’t meet the deadlines back on the list of available movies. I’m kicking ass! HA! (Not really – I’m a total wuss and if you have a really good excuse, I’m sure I’ll extend your deadline for another year & a half…). π
Thank you to everyone who has participated so far and an extra big thanks to the guest reviewers who have taken the time to reply to the people who comment on their post. I really appreciate that! π
Thanks for the reminder I will get on that
Cool. Thanks! You signed up pretty recently so that’s okay. I’ve just had some new people wanting to join in so wanted an updated list of available movies. π
Oh my word I completely forgot about this, my apologies! I’ll get it over to you as soon as I can!
That’s okay! Lol – I hope my post didn’t sound pushy! π Just had some new people wanting to join in so wanted to update the list of available films. No rush! Send it when you get a chance – I know you’ve been busy lately. π
I’ve contributed before and enjoyed the experience, but now my life is about to go into warp speed and I feel I should let my film go. –All Quiet On the Western Front. Thank you!
That’s okay, Cindy! I know you’ve done some already – just wanted to update the list of available films. Thanks again! π
Shitfest and real life has really been keeping my ass busy – I had big plans for Leon but I doubt they’ll pan out any time soon – IF you want or need to put mine back in the open bank – that’s OK – I’m still willing to do them I just might be later than you like : ( ….
On a positive note – yesterday I bought a fancy camera to start working on the trailer for my movie : )
#YouWanker
REAL life? What’s that?!? π That’s cool – have you found a bunch of actresses willing to get naked & murdered? lol π How about by… 2016?? Oh man, I’m such a pushover!!! π
I found one yesterday!!!!
#whosyourmommy
You can keep them assigned to me if you want but if someone comes around asking to do them – feel free to let them : )
DEAL! π
Hey! Love this idea. Would I be able to do the complete LOTR the rings trilogy? I rewatched the first 2 last week and I can definitely watch the third one again soon!

Sure! I’m not sure which way I want to post them yet – separately or all as one… Would you mind either way?
Don’t mind either way. Is there any particular format or sections you would like doing?
Cool. π I’ll know better when I’ve received more reviews whether I’ll want to post them as one or not. No specific format, really. However you do reviews. You can look at some of the guest reviews I’ve posted if you want to – everyone has done them their own way. π
I’d love to do Black Swan and The Pianist if someone gives it up π
Sure! Black Swan is yours for sure. Will let you know if the other becomes available. Thanks! π
Damn it I was going to ask for Black Swan if it was given up!!! – _ –
Awww! I’d love to have a review from you! Are you interested in any others? Some people might give their movies up (or they’ll be taken from them if I don’t hear back from them. Lol) π
I could rustle something up I’m sure π I’ll take a peek at the list again and let you know!!!
Thank you π
Eric could maybe be convinced to give you Lock Stock if you really wanted that one?? π
Lock Stock & Two Smoking Barrels? Ah you know me so well!!!! That would suit me down to the ground :))))))
Hehe. Yep – that’s what I figured! π I’ll double check with Eric but he did say he’s busy & it’s fine to give his movies to others who might want them. I won’t take Leon from him, though – he loves that one. π
Not a huge fan of Leon anyway. I mean I like it fine, but definitely not a favourite!
Lock Stock is more me π ooh yeah!!!!!!
Thanks π
Emma! Lock Stock is all yours. π
SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET! Thanks Miss Mutant and Mr IPC π
I’ll do The Truman Show if that’s still free.
YEP! It’s yours. You just beat someone else to that. I love that movie. π
Hooray for me. Ha. I will write that up right away.
Cool! I only have guest reviews scheduled for the next two Tuesdays then I’m OUT until I receive more. π
You’ll have mine very, very soon. Promise.
And sorry if you posted it but I can’t seem to find how to submit it once I finish.
You can send it to tableninemutant at hotmail dot com. You get extra points if it’s in Word, even more if it has all the formatting, and a bonus prize if you attach any pics you want used & indicate where to put them in the review. Lol π
Thanks. Just sent it to you. What is my prize?
Umm… My gratitude! Thank you!!! Lol π
That’s a fine prize. I’ll put it on my mantle.
I will tentatively claim The Truman Show.
Ah, missed Dave’s comment. Never mind. If 2001 becomes available from V, I’ll take it.
I’ll let you know if she gives it up! Thanks! π
You JUST missed out on that one! π¦
Yea, I should have refreshed the page. Oh, well.
By complete coincidence I just started re-watching Lord of the Rings, but I see I’m too late to the party there! I shall have to muse on this furtherβ¦
Aw – yeah, you JUST missed out on that one. Lol – I’ve been let down on that one A LOT so I’ll let you know if it becomes available again. π
you can use my Requiem of a Dream review if you want
http://moviesreview101.com/2014/12/28/requiem-for-a-dream-2000/
Thanks – I’ll use it if I can post it in full on my blog?
yeah that is fine
Cool. π Can you send it to tableninemutant at hotmail dot com? And if it’s in Word with your formatting that would be awesome. And if the pictures are also attached, I’ll like you SO much. Lol. Otherwise I’ll grab them from your post. I’ll post it exactly as you did. π
I would love to do Mystic River, it is literally one my favorite movies of all-time.
Great! It’s yours. Thanks! π
Happy to do it π
I’ll take “Cool Hand Luke” if it is still available. It’s one of my all-time fave movies, and I have no idea how it is still open. π By the way, I’d be doing it on my film blog (Font and Frock) and not on A Small Press Life.
Sure! I’d like to post it in full on my site – like I have with the other guest reviews. You can have a look at a couple if you want to see how I do them. π I post one every Tuesday.
Even better. Less work for me. π
You can send it to tableninemutant at hotmail dot com when you’re done. In Word if possible. Attach any pics you want included & let me know where they should go. π
Sounds like a plan. Thank you!
too bad I’ve been banned like Kramer in the fruit store….
Yep! Lol. I’ll let you take All Quiet On The Western Front if no one else wants it. I doubt anyone will grab that boring old movie. Lol! π
saw it two years ago and almost fell asleep. tnx anyway
Lol. You’re totally reliable, though! π I had some weird people sign up for movies a year and a half ago. It was the first time I ever saw them on my blog. And the last! lol! Asking for guest bloggers brings people out of the woodwork. π
Ur loss… I dont wanna be a member of a club that would have me in it π – Groucho
I’ve already updated you on it just last week or something. But I’ll be getting this you in August some time. Its on my to-do list. Just need to get festival season done with and then I’m super free π
That’s okay, Kim! π I know we spoke about this recently. I just needed an updated list all in one place of the remaining movies. And you did one for me recently anyway! I know you’re good for it. π
I swear I will watch and review Rain Man before 1 October!!!
Lol. That’s okay, Abbi! You were one of the very FIRST to get reviews to me. I know you’re good for it! Mainly, I just needed to get a list together of the remaining films all in one place. π
UGH I SUCK. I am going to do my absolute best to get this done. Man, why can’t we just get paid to be on WordPress all day instead of going to work…?
Lol! You totally don’t suck! I know you’re good for it. π You know you’re not one of the ones I was worried about but I had to get a list together all in one place to get my head straight on it all again & to remember who signed up for what. Hopefully I didn’t come across as too pushy! But I told MovieRob he’s still banned…. Lol! π
π¦
LOL! π
You’re nice…but I totally do suck. Lol. You didn’t come across as pushy at all! And I can understand banning MovieRob. The man must be stopped. π
Lol. YOU DON’T SUCK!!! π
I have THE ARTIST review on my site if you want that one and it hasn’t already gone… π
Thanks! I’ll see if any newbies want it first if that’s alright. Waiting to hear back from a few people. π
No problem!
I’ve had my review of The Pianist saved on my computer for weeks and completely forgot to send it over, oops! So sorry about that. Is there a preferred email you’d like me to send it too? Thanks so much for letting me take part in this π
Lol. That’s okay! π You can send it to tableninemutant at hotmail dot com. Thanks for joining in! π

Yeah I’ll get on this.
Lol! I don’t believe a word of this. π

hey mate
Would love to do Taxi Driver or The Wrestler
Excellent! π How about Taxi Driver? Am surprised no one has grabbed that one!
Yeah I’ll do that one, I have only seen it once and that was ages ago. So it’ll be nice and fresh for me π So I email you the finished product?
Cool. Thanks! π Yep – you can email it to tableninemutant at hotmail dot com
Is All Quiet on the Western Front still available? It may well be an old boring film, but I’ve got it from the library and could throw in my two cents.
Yes, it is! That would be great to have you join in. π lol – I know we watched it in high school. I don’t remember it at all but I don’t think it was exactly bad or anything. π
I’ve got the review ready, but where should I send it?
Oh, cool! I’m running out of guest reviews to post & wasn’t looking forward to having to do some work of my own. Lol π You can send it to tableninemutant at hotmail dot com π
Ha, thanks! We mustn’t overwork you, though another good list wouldn’t hurt, right? π
Lol. Well, I was lazy for this week’s so it’s a pretty boring list I’ve put together this time… π

Hey! Had to start the Lord of the Rings trilogy over. But I am knee-deep in it now. If all goes well, I’ll have this to you within a week or two!
Unless I long ago lost that one and it was given to someone else, which may be possible too. So let me know!
Hi! Oh shit… There were a few where I couldn’t remember who’d grabbed them. That was one of them! I’ve JUST received a review for them from someone else & already have it scheduled to post… Quick! Stop watching them! They’re very long!!! π lol. Sorry about that…. π¦
Haha, no worries. I’ve been meaning to watch them again anyway.
Phew. That’s good. π

Is Taxi Driver still a runner? I could provide that!
Hmm. Umm… I’ll have to go look. I THINK someone grabbed that one. But, that happens a lot & then I never ever hear from those people again. Lol. I’ll find out who it was & chase them up! π
It’s probably my mistake. I just seen it on a list and thought I’d offer. Maybe I read the wrong list of available films.
Lol – I’ll be honest, I can’t keep track of it all anymore either! Bwahaha! π
Ahaha! I admire your honesty. π
It’s quite a project to get them all down. I’ve seen quite a few bloggers try and fail.
