February 2012 Competition Part 1

[flyers2thecup]

great work everyone. as i always do...i scroll through pretty quicky...and if there are a few that catch my eye...make me go back and look...then i narrow it to them. I really kept coming back to one...The Last Samurai, which got my vote. Jaws and J Edgar were the other two that I really liked.

To respond to the post that thought maybe dark knight was winning due to being first on list...I really don't think that's the case. I don't recall too many competitions having winners from the first slot. I do think some people are more apt to vote for a movie they like. For instance, if there was a breaking dawn cover in here, I don't think Morph would have been able to vote for anything else. Just saying.

I think the combination of the film being DKR and it's placing is playing a double role. I have seen first entrants get more votes before, but never had such a highly anticipated movie be first, so both are factoring IMO.

The only reason I say this with conviction is that the second most votes are going to the second cover. And I have to say that Journey 2 isn't nearly as popular as DKR!
