MHC # 53 TOY STORY
Whilst showing the influences of both Ingmar Bergman and Federico Fellini, and arguably even more Kurosawa, Toy Story has its own unique place in the canon of Modern Cinema.
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 of a haiku poem has seven syllables.
The third, and final, line of a haiku poem 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. 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 MHC. The voting is as follows:
3 pts fwfrer a
2 pts fwfr b
1 pt fwfr c
--------------------------------
You cannot vote for yourself.
You can vote for the previous winner
You vote by sending me your votes in a PM (Private Message). I'll resent it, but do it anyway.
You may vote only once.
When the voting deadline ends (9pm Wednesday 17APR FWFR time), the votes are tallied and the top three places are announced. |

Why does this theme remind me of the previous one? There were toy sheep in Toy Story, weren't there?
Played with, all played out,
Andy's favored cowboy toy
Woody gets a Buzz. |

Woody and Andy -
They used to be so close but
now Andy needs space. |

Woody said we're pals,
And 'e couldn't understand
They're lightyears apart.

Andy's birthday Buzz.
Lands amid sicko Sid's freaks!
Boys will be boys, Toys.

Toys get organised.
Through adversity and loss,
Cowboy finds Space Friend.
