Cross-Cutting: A movie based forum game!
Posted: 2010.09.21 (22:47)
1. The Shawshank Redemption
2. The Godfather
3. The Godfather Part 2
4. Inception
5. The Good, the Bad and the Ugly.
6. Pulp Fiction.
7. Schindler's List.
8. 12 Angry Men
9. One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest
10. Star Wars Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back
These are the ten films that make up the top ten on IMDB via ratings. No doubt, this does not represent any of your lists.
What it does represent, is a starting point for a Metanet forum game. This is Cross-Cutting. (Inspired by Kotaku's Cannon Fodder)
How to play: Whenever you want to, make a post. Within this post, you can use three powers:
Jump Cut: Replace any movie on the list with a movie of your choosing. (e.g. Jump Cut: Schindler's List for Close Encounters of the Third Kind.)
Crossfade: Switch the place of two movies on the list. (Crossfade: 12 Angry Men and Schindler's List. They switch places.)
Cutting Room Floor: Undo the move of a previous poster. (CRF: gloomp. Gloomp's addition of Oldboy is reversed and Star Wars is put back again.)
Some other rules:
You only have one of each power for season one, which will last a week. In addition to that, you have to use CFR in congress with another power. Powers do not accumulate, ie if you wait a week, you've lost your chance. Finally, you can use all three whenever you want; use Jump Cut now, use Crossfade and CFR in four days. All good.
Do it.
