Thanks to our fabulous ModGod Paul, the Rewind Award post has been sticky-fied and will stay at the top of the page for a bit. Because it's now not getting lost among the other posts, I'm leaving nominations open for another few days, until November 22. Hurry and get your nominations in - you might be in the running to win a ticket to the awards night!
*********************************************
Since award season is fast approaching, I thought it was time we had our own Rewind Awards, or Windies, for short.
Categories cover 80's movies (mostly) with some tv, music and our fellow Rewinders.
Either email or PM your nominations to me, and I'll tabulate them if there are no clear winners, we'll go to a tiebreaker vote.
OK, here we go....
