RAFO TV & Movie Awards? Edit: After the quick poll ironclad Send a noteboard - 18/11/2009 09:20:48 AM
The end is near. Of the year, mind you. Many many years ago I did movie awards at wotmania two or three times, where people could vote for their favorites. It didn't have much meaning but was just a fun thing to do. The OF board always had its polls at the end of the year as well.
So I thought we should do the same in year one of RAFO.

The details? Well, I got some ideas but rather than deciding on my own I'm curious how you would feel about all that and how you'd like it to work out.

The categories for example.
Movie and TV show of the year are given, of course. The question is, do we stick to 2009 only? Or do we add All-time-favorites? How detailed do we get? I love categories like "best action sequence" or "best villain" of the year, but a lot of people may not have an opinion on those. What do you think?
And how about TV? Do we separate drama and comedy? Do we pick actors too?

I think we should get busy nominating soon and then have 3-5 nominees to vote for around the time of the holidays or early 2010. Right?

We could have a small fake ceremony here, if people volunteered to present awards with fun speeches, something that always worked great at the WOTscars. Who'd be up for that?

So at this point any ideas are welcome. Would you play along? What categories would you like to see? Let me know :)


EDIT: So, according to yesterday's Quick Poll, the majority of you wouldn't mind quite a lot of odd categories for our award show. I am thinking we'll go some kind of middle path, not to scare away the ones who'd rather vote when we just have the basic ones. So, by the middle or end of the month you can expect the nominations phase. Until then you can still submit categories here or via NB, but let's stick to "everyone has an opinion on this"-ones and not get too geeky. :)

You mustn't be afraid to dream a little bigger, darling.
