Proving that Clint's still got it, Unforgiven has found its place among enduring Westerns since its big screen debut in 1992.


Abbreviated rules borrowed from here to encourage some new entrants ....

The Rules

The first line of a haiku poem 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. Also, haikus may be risque, but nothing explicit please.

Only one entry per person as per The Blevins Rule. However, you are allowed to edit your existing entry until 9pm 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, even if you are Sludge and its your birthday. This could mean the difference between the adoration and envy of your fellow Fwiffers or being the feckless butt of our jokes!

You do not have to enter an MHC to vote. Vote away. It'll be like a lurker vote!

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

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

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

You may vote only once
You cannot vote for yourself.
You can vote for the previous winner

You vote by sending me your votes in a PM (Private Message) to Me.

Quite the opposite Em.

I felt myself unworthy of haikuing such a masterpiece.

Well done Rocky!

Now remember to choose a film which is not mind-numbingly awful.

And no, you can't choose THE THREE AMIGOS again.



Hmmmm. Is that why you didn't haiku Heathers? That is complete and utter art, Whip. Nothing less.

EM :)

Hey there's nothing wrong with The Three Amigos that a couple of shots of Chinaco tequila wont cure.

Okay,

Fortunately Time Warner isn't responsible for my work connection.

We'll do this quick and bloody. Let me first say, I agree this was a terrific round which made the voting pretty rough. Votes were spread pretty evenly behind the top two.

3rd Place - TIE
Whipper & Bean (Full barrels at 6 apiece)
.
.
.
.
.
.
And all shot up in the other corner, in second place
Sludge (9 bullets)
.
.
.
.
.
.
The favorite Unforgiven gunslinger by a wide margin with 12 shots:

ROCKFSH!!!!

Little Bill keeps the peace
but Bill's peace is not justice
Clint's piece delivers

Step right up and claim your prize, a (cut up) whore with a heart of gold! Check the list and choose a never-haiku'd film for Contest #120.

Dear Haiku Ladies and Haiku Gents

Have just heard from Sludge that his California dreaming has affected his computer and he won't be able to tally the votes until later this evening.

Please try to fill the time constructively and forgive him and each other.

Had a whore of a time voting

Deciding who to vote for wasn't easy, but I'm not one to Duc my responsibilities.
BaftaBaby Posted - 08/27/2008 : 07:04:18
Sought absolution
Found none
Voted anyway
Any which way but loose

ChocolateLady Posted - 08/27/2008 : 06:02:16
Hard to pick a favourite this time, but I did - and the two runners up as well!
MguyXXV Posted - 08/27/2008 : 05:02:39
VERY strong batch this week. I wish I could vote for them all. However, I couldn't.

And for that I'll remain,

Unforgiven.
Montgomery Posted - 08/27/2008 : 04:51:15
I couldn't forgive myself, if I didn't vote.

EM :)

Young Schofield wants some
Munny, and killing will put
a Clint in their eyes!
BaftaBaby Posted - 08/22/2008 : 00:18:01
Munny's broke, wife gone.
Bounty says he travels on.
Killing's all he knows.
