Movie #201 is Christopher Nolan�s brilliant, riveting Memento (2000).

.it rof oG


-----------------------------------------------------

Abbreviated rules, C&Ped, more or less:

The first line of a haiku has five syllables.
The second line has seven syllables.
The third, and final, line has five syllables.

The Movie Haiku Contest (MHC) is open to every member of the FWFR site.

To enter, all you have to do is think of a haiku for the current movie, then post into the current thread. Simple as that. Haikus may be risqu�, but nothing explicit please.

Only one entry per person as per the Blevins Rule. However, you are allowed to edit your entry until 9 pm Tuesday FWFR time.

Voting:

If you have entered the MHC, then you have to vote. If you do not vote, you'll lose 3 points from your total, no matter how plausible your excuse, & you have to have the winner�s name prominently tattooed on your body.

Not voting could mean the difference between the adoration and envy of your fellow Fwiffers or being cast into the outer darkness.

You do not have to enter an MHC to vote. Lurk. Vote. That�d be good.

---------------------------------

For each round, you get to vote for your 3 favourite haikus. The voting is as follows:

3 pts fwfr a
2 pts fwfr b
1 pt fwfr c


You can vote only once
You can�t vote for yourself.
You can vote for the previous winner

You vote by sending me a PM (Private Message)here.

When the voting deadline is reached (9 pm Wednesday 28 April FWFR time), the votes are tallied and the top 3 places announced.

Suddenly, somehow,
Guy is somewhere. Grief, panic,
Always present tense.

It's quite enjoyable, watching the votes stack up.

Although there's a frontrunner, 4 people could conceivably win, but one person has yet to vote. Beanmimo evidently neglected to write VOTE BEFORE 9 ON WEDNESDAY on that Polaroid of his computer. I'll PM him in a sec & give him till 9 am tomorrow. OK?

OK then. No word from Ireland but time, moving forwards, has run out.

I should perhaps mention that my previous post was incorrect. Although there was a good spread of votes only 3 people were in the running for top spot, not 4.

Anyway, top 3 in reverse order (& how appropriate):

































Where am I?

Oh yes.

















In joint third place with 7 points apiece we have BaftaBabe (3-3-1) & clay (3-2-2)�

















































What was I doing?

Oh yes.

















































In first place with 10 votes we have ChocolateLady (1-3-3-3)!!!
