(I hope our dear Adminn do not consider this thread as unnecesary) 
Since we dont know the actual votes, the "plays" is our only indication:
Star Wars: Last Stand of the Jedi 680 plays
Concrete Hustle: 1133
Star`Wars The Lost Faith Episode 2: 680
Padme: 1381
GrindHouse: Dont Go in the Endor Woods: 964
George Lucas Hip Hop Awards: 1149
Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back in 60 seconds: 625
RVD2: 587
I included only the most recent entries (there are some others a lot older, and only with views over 600)
For some reason RVD2 is not apperaring on the list with all the finalist on Atom (It is ok in the voting page) Edit: It is fixed now.
If this numbers indicate anything, Im really surprise by this list.....is unexpected.
Not even my faves are here.

Update..
Important changes (only top 5 plays clips included)

2.-STAR WARS GH DONT GO TO THE ENDOR WOODS: 1,662
3.-CONCRETE HUSTLE: 1,589
4.-GEORGE LUCAS HIP HOP AWARDS: 1,481

Actually, after a quick check, the leaders are slowing down!.. There is a drastic drop on the daily view count on the top 5...
And the "runner-up" group is keeping a steady pace...
There is still hope...
Anyways, remember this voting is only for the "People Choice Award"... There are 4 more winners, 3 decided by the judges and 1 more by Mr Lucas...(could be more, but I'm told there will be 5 winners this year (as happened before))
Last Update on the plays tomorrow night. (...And stop giving thumbs down people!!..ate lest for now...  )

Since mine was more a just for fun short that I REALLY truly didn't think was even going to get accepted, I think my "Ultimate Fan Film" (the one with the actual fans) will undoubtedly suffer epic failure.
Yeah it's had tens of thousands of hits, it wasn't too well received and I totally expected as such. There's no way that holds a candle to some of the wildly popular (by default) other films made by the more well known users that post here regularly.
There's some good stuff to choose from this year!
Best of luck to everyone.

Hey niennumb!!
The concept for the "Ultimate Fan Film" great, but guess not everyone get it...either way, I certanly enjoy it...
A public recognition to this guy (Ryan) since the only voice worth hearing on my animation is Yoda, and it's his... 
(By the way, I prominently used your original recording of Yoda here as well: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tjTYqvROZcE, the "half-trailer-half-pleasevoteforme" video..  )
ahem... Ok, now....unless there is a great disturbance in the force the Final position on plays will be...
1.-Padme
2.-Jedi Gym
3.-Grindhouse: Dont go in to the Endor Woods.
4.-George Lucas Hip Hop
5.-The Empire Strikes Back in 60 seconds.
6.-The Last Stand of the Jedi
7.-RVD2
8.-Raw Deal
9.-The Lost Faith II
10.-Amputation Prevention (But since the overall is negative 89%) it would be rather apropiate to put the follow up (not because its one of my favorites....he):
10.-Contract of Evil
The voting is done... Now is time to start sending flowers to the Atom/Lucasfilm staff, since I'm told there will be 3 more awards selected by them...

Corrected (my apologies, my frineds):
1.-Padme
2.-Jedi Gym
3.-Grindhouse: Dont go in to the Endor Woods.
4.-George Lucas Hip Hop
5.-Concrete Hustle
6.-The Empire Strikes Back in 60 seconds.
7.-The Last Stand of the Jedi
8.-RVD2
9.-Raw Deal
10.-The Lost Faith II
11.-Amputation Prevention (But since the overall is negative 89%) it would be rather apropiate to put the follow up (not because its one of my favorites....he):
11.-Contract of Evil
One little detail I forgot to mention... Even if "Padme" had the highest play count, it only has 59% aproval... On that sense, proportionally, "Concrete Hustle" would be on top with 80% aproval... And with no sense "The Empire strikes back in 60 secs" should be on top, only because of the awesome Stormtrooper....(00:40)

Jedi Gym was VERY well done. I laughed at that.
Some great material overall and thx for the compliments on the voice work. Always love doing stuff like that for others.
Best to everyone!

They actually don't contact the winners in advance, and I've heard them say exactly that, several times.

Heh, that was the third year, we didn't have a film in competition but they asked us to present an award instead. (Hi, Fenn!)
There's also this video from two years ago, when the FF awards was also a "Pink Five" retrospective.

This has been one exciting year for me.
I won a video contest in December and in January they delivered my new car!
I got to work on sketch cards for Lord of the Rings, Marvel, Indiana Jones and Star Wars:Clone Wars.
I entered 2 cartoons to the fan movie challenge (one was not accepted and the other only got about 1500 views)
Then I got an invitation to create a limited edition print for Celebration Japan
Atom saw this article about my Celebration Japan print and invited me to be a guest in their booth at San Diego Comic Con
wow, things are going pretty good. If you're at ComicCon, stop by the Atom booth on Friday afternoon and say howdy.
