Regarding the 2020 year-end poll
The board has spoken. We will run the 2020 year-end poll during the summer, around July.
Since 2020 was so uncertain regarding new movies, it does make sense to run it later. Even the Oscar and Golden Globe have moved up their schedule. Just as a reminder that the year end poll is not intend to be a definitive 2020 poll, but a snap shot the participant's new film watching. The later the poll take place, the less accurate the snap shot of the year-end poll. We now have a bit more certainty, we may run it a bit earlier next year if we were to do the poll. We'll see what happen then.
The duration of the poll most likely be about 3 weeks like the regular poll, instead of about 6 weeks in the past. So I would recommend that you start catching up to gather the list, including those for performances. Really interesting how it will turn out.
Thank you for your input regarding the year-end poll.
************************************************************
The next poll will be for 1929 followed by 1998.
