I can't even find what "ratings" you're talking about. And the voting page is up but there's still no place to actually cast a vote. The whole organization here blows hard. They closed submissions a month ago. You'd think they'd be, you know, READY.

Using this link you can access the actual voting page....
I guess they had all this trouble since they decided to change ther website layout and start a compitition at the same time... 
I just dont get how they selected the order of the movies to appear...mmmm... In my opnion it should be random everytime you enter...but well... At least we can vote now....! 
Good Luck!
(A beer for every vote!...Proof requiered....  )

Yeah? Where's the voting on that page? All I see are thumbnails of all the films for viewing.
EDIT: Never mind. I turned off AdBlocker and the "vote for this movie" buttons appeared.
Clever girl...
EDIT: It's still not clickable though. Holy crap do I actually have to watch all of them first?
EDIT: Nope, just registered and signed in. Agh.

Percentages don't mean much, especially this early on.
100% percent thumbs down could be the result of one thumbs-down vote. Same for 100% thumbs up, for that matter.
And those "ratings" aren't the actual voting that matters anyway.
Meanwhile, I can't recall an Atomfilms contest that didn't have first-day glitches - unplayable movies, incorrect information, broken links etc. They'll get it sorted out, they always do.
It's a little messier than usual this year, no doubt thanks to the site-wide revamp that just happened last week.

I think the thumbs down was just part of the glitch,hopefully.... 
also I'm happy they changed the drunk part of the description to my suggestion if it needed to be funny and it looks like things are going good!
one thing is I'm not sure about is why they have past winners up at the same time?
I thought it would just be those that made the entry showcasing, so you could see
who is in and not have to scroll through pages of past entries 
Aslo who said drinks at comic con?? I'm in.

never mind.
I just found the finialist page. interestingly enough it's a good group of
videos. one question, is everyone in the contest from the Force.net or are there
other entries from different hosting sights.?
plus I was kidding about that drink in S D , I just thought it might be nice to meet
some of you folks from the forum.
all the best

Haha...Yup, there are people from diferent places...
Side note 1: That's what I'm trying to say! Since many of us will be attending, why not have a meeting or something? 
(Last year at the Comic-con there were even avaliable conference-rooms for groups of 10 or more...free!) 
Side note 2: C'mon!!...San Diego at night is great!! no one has accepeted my bribe!? 1 Vote x 1 Beer!!.... 
Side note 3: (maybe this was discussed somewhere else, but a "tortilleria" was the location for RVD2!!?? Woah! Viva Mexico!

I hate to ask this and sound like a nerf herder,
but was that from some animated film or did you create that from scratch??
becuase if you did WOW! that was excellent, 
and even if you mashed that from some film great mix and flawless application.
either way I voted!, good job.

Haven't seen RvD2 in a long time and it still rocks. Love the little details like adjusting glasses during battle. Great timing and pace and wonderful original score.
Definitly a film not to just enjoy but to study.
Everyone needs to quit making live action lightsaber fights now...best one has already been made! ...unless someone makes one with cgi lego men, but that is just me.

Thank for your comments LORDWROTH, I really apretiate them... after all, sometimes thats all we get, right?...hehe...(and yes, all the drawings and animation was done on hand by me)
Guybrush....RVD2 is really fun... But I dont think should stop trying to top that, they just raised the bar, and that's always good...
Anyways for me the top 3 for this year are, in no particular order:
RVD2
Contract of Evil
and maybe Padme (Even if my wife and son loved "Dark Sith"..)

Hi guys.
Great movies this year.
I have a movie in the competition.
Mine is "Nerf & Herder in Using the Force"
It was rejected back in 2005 because music rights but I changed the music and was accepted this year.
Check it out and give me feedbacks.
I tell you though, the resolution looks crappy, but that was my fault. I think I uploaded a version with low res.
Hope you like it and good luck to everyone competing.

It's too bad they have that 100 MB limit. TOO LOW!
