It's hard to believe we've already gone 59 rounds before coming up against Rocky.
Let's make it a good clean fight and may the best man, or woman, win.
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 13JUN FWFR time), the votes are tallied and the top three places are announced.

Underdog steps up,
Rocky's punches reach the heart,

THE RESULTS ARE IN!!
OK, and now the moment you have all been waiting for.
All the votes have been tallied up (by me) in front of an independent verifier (me) and after several recounts we have...
[drums]
In 3rd place, with 8 points (3,2,2,1) we have...
Whippersnapper! (That's me, by the way.)
And in 2nd place, on 9 points (3,3,2,1) we have....
[more drums]
Stalean!
[BIG round of applause]
And, we have an outright winner,
On 10 points (3,3,2,1,1) we have...
[more bloody drums]
who else but...
the rock himself....
ROCKFSH!!!
[Wild applause breaks out spontaneously, right after the APPLAUSE board has been held up]
So, well done Rocky, it's your turn to pick a film.
Anyone who has any alternative Rocky haikus keep them to yourself please feel free to post them here!
