Ripping Good Yarns: Vote for Your Hall of Fame Movie 2013!

After a series on new fall TV, let's return to the movie screens, and resume Ripping good Yarn's selection of a movie to be the first in the Hall of Fame.

There's nothing like going to the movie show!  The old drive-ins we went to with my parents, the large downtown movie theaters that even had balconies. the old Court Theater in Saginaw that on Saturday afternoons would show a double feature, cartoons, a serial chapter and more for no more than a quarter or two.  Even the suburban megaplexes with their cushier chairs, stadium seating, deluxe sound systems and 3D.  Of course, now, admission may take a trip to the small loan department!

So I could wax all day about my love affair with going to the movies.  And that's just one of many ways people see great movies now.  They might download them, watch them on TV, rent a DVD, or even see them on their phone.

For my new Ripping Good Yarn award, I would like to start a Hall of Fame for movies.  We will start with a general category, for movies all types.  these movies are a mix of my selections and movies nominated by Rippers.  They included only movies made before 2000..

Please look at the following and vote for one of the following to be our first Hall of Fame entry.  There are no rules of judgement regarding selection.  It can be a personal favorite, or you can have well reasoned logic based on critical review or even box office.  It's all up to you! you can vote for more than one if you like, but then I will fraction your vote accordingly.  Feel free to vote or comment here or on Facebook.

Here are the ten nominees to pick from:

Wizard of Oz

Gone with the Wind

It's A Wonderful Life

Casablanca

Lord of the Rings

Back to the Future

North by Northwest

Jurassic Park

Schindler's List

Raiders of the Lost Ark

I wait your input, Rippers!  The final selection is yours!
