Nominations Wanted for Inaugural A2K Milm & Foovie Festival!

In a recent question, some of us started discussing Milms and Foovies, those rare but wonderful cinematic accomplishments that manage to succeed both as Film (i.e. the art house crowd doesn't puke all over it) and Movie (it appeals to a wide range of people and sells beaucoup popcorn). Clearly, our collective ability to identify and exploit the relatively limited Foovie and Milm portfolio is key to the ongoing mingling and cross breeding of the Film Fanatics and the Movie Masses. The intended outcome: tolerance, respect and thought-provoking entertainment.

And so with this lofty goal in mind, I suggest an inaugural A2K Milm and Foovie Festival, an international series of celluloid presentations that succeed on both cinematic levels. The first step: determining a program of work that meets our general criteria. Later, we'll select a jury and virtually exhibit the works on a regular basis. Fans and jury members will be encouraged to share their thoughts on each Foovie and Milm and nominations will made against our various festival prizes. Finally, at the Inaugural A2K Milm and Foovie Awards Banquet later this year (complete with open virtual bar), the prizes will be awarded, the Jury members will be praised or vilified and Foovie and Milm history will be made.

So, any one up for this idea? If so, please indicate your support and nominate a milm or foovie for the program. Nominations will need to be seconded before they are considered for inclusion, so community members are encouraged to argue for or against any nomination.

(BTW, if you're looking for a good milm example, look no further than The Godfather, an immensely popular foovie that works on so many artistic levels that has become the quintessential milm.)
