Are we still emailing them, or should we just post it in this thread?

I think you should still e-mail them, so Shaan knows which ones he has received. We are just posting them here to share our opinions.

I should have my votes in to you on the 5th. Sorry to be slow in getting through this, but I'm trying to see Frost/Nixon and Defiance before I make my final picks. The Foreign Language category continues to give me some headaches but I've seen 'City Of Men' now and that will likely be my sole nominee ('Mongol' won't work since it qualified for last year's, curses!).

Okay, here's my list. I still haven't seen Vicky Cristina Barcelona, Benjamin Button, Doubt, The Visitor, Rachel Getting Married, etc, which is a shame.

I'm in the same boat as you numbersix. My hope is that others will have seen some of the films I've missed so that the nomination will buy me time to see them myself!

That leaves 10, with less than 24 hours to go.

There's still twenty-four hours left? Then, I can I alter mine if needed (seeing Frost/Nixon tonight and may see The Reader before then)?
