TA:MOU = Themed Anniversary: Moving On Up

The Rules

Each Tuesday a theme will be decided based on the Anniversary of some significant event. All you have to do is trawl your reviews for any that relate to that event and post them here with a link.

You can post as many as you wish, so long as either the film or your review clearly relates to the theme. You can only post during the week of the current TA:MOU.

You don't have to say you voted unless you really want to - but you are expected to visit all the links posted.

ON THIS DAY: 30 October
TA:MOU has temporarily tweaked its format, in an anniversary/date related way, of course. In honour of our fearless founder's fourmidable foray into fun:

1. Please post reviews for any film with a four word title. To make it slightly easier, definite and indefinite articles "the" and "a/n" won't count.

2. Reviews for films with 13 or Thirteen in the title.

Have fun, gang!

EDIT - please read the next post.

Not for the first time - I've made this TOO HARD!!!! Big thanx to Larry who's informed me that there are too many films with four word titles and we're likely to be stuck on this for the next thirteen years!!!

So how's about this as a revision [conflating 1 & 2 of the original roolz above]:
Post reviews for thirteen of your best four word titles PLUS thirteen of your very favorite reviews PLUS any of your reviews for films with 13 or Thirteen in the title.

Lemme know if that doesn't make sense.

ONCE AGAIN - THANK YOU LARRY!!

I have already compiled a manageable list of four word titles. Not to muddy the water or anything, why don't we stick with the original rules and cap the four word films at 50?--shades of FWFR!

OK, lemmy - how's about we add your 50-cap to the list of options. Everybody wins!!!

Lemmy, your first RIVER OF NO RETURN takes a wrong curve.
