To mark the first birthday of this fine forum, I'd like to present to you the ngm films Forum's own movie survey.
It will be a permanent fixture here in Movie Musings, meaning that you can easily return here time and time again to edit your choices when you realise that Holiday On The Buses is not the greatest film of all time after all.
(That goes to Mutiny On The Buses, surely!)
It's a survey open to everyone and we may be able to learn a bit about some of the lesser known individuals on here too.
So, without further ado, here are the choices for you to copy and paste into your replies, think about your answers carefully folks:
EDIT: These things look better with the catagories in Bold Type , so to make it easier for you, don't copy & paste from below, but from the template I have made for you HERE instead. Clownfoot, Emily and james, I have made yours bold for you.
