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 06JUN FWFR time), the votes are tallied and the top three places are announced.
The Entries Are:
BaftaBabe
Steve McQueen's so cool.
Rides a hog, sasses Germans.
He just gets cooler.
Whippersnapper
What would Freud say of
All this tunnelling in a
World without women?
Rockfsh
Men in Stalag told
For you, the War is over
Wanna bet, Mein Herr?
Miss Haiku herself: Montgomery
This film escaped me.
But it did make for a nice
Superman review.
Bife
All you need to know
Can be written in four words.
Steve McQueen plus bike.
MisterBadIdea
Yeah, ride that bike, Steve!
Oh wait, they recaptured him
Not that inspiring
Beanmimo
Intense war drama,
Many escape, one is caught
by english reply.
Sludge
Dig this: late at night
prisoners dig in silence
rather than go "POW"
Stalean
Men's men escape Krauts,
Crack weinerschnitzel code.
Heil McQueen! Mein Champ.
