    Welcome nightie! :)

    Just nominate your 6 favourite Christmas films and then wait with baited breath as they are ranked according to nominations and box office shenanigans, then we narrow down films and we battle it out in the knockout rounds. :D

    I have a couple of ones, that if they don't make it to at least the semi's then some hands are going to be thrown (virtually of course!)

    Right with 76 Noms, it's time to close the nomination process. We will start the playoffs on the weekend/Monday to bring the 76 to 64 and then we will start Round 1.


  • Moderators, Business & Finance Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 24,714 Mod ✭✭✭✭Loughc


    Also I nominated The Family Stone on the basis it wasn't nominated yet and to bring us to the 76 :)
