    MC Awards for 2018

    You haven't seen all the films. Of course you haven't. But start up a draft to let others know what they should prioritize.

    Someone will count votes eventually and post results. Hopefully it won't be me. But it might be.

    I work in grocery. I have not gotten sick. My fellow employees have not gotten sick. If the virus were even remotely as contagious as its being presented as, why haven’t entire store staffs who come into contact with hundreds of people per day, thousands per week, all falling ill in mass nationwide?

    Still feels super early, too many movies left for me to watch before I feel comfortable with these, and yet some categories still feel overflowing with worthy stuff that I don't know how to whittle some to just five yet. But regardless, here's my ballot as it looks at the moment (with ones that just missed the cut spoilered to function as FYC of sorts for the rest of you):

    EDIT: Made new post with updated ballot.
