This is a brilliant idea! It may take a little while to catch on but I bet it will. Here is a comment that @winstonwolfe left. It is like a mini-post.

"Firstly, I've never seen this movie, but it feels like I definitely should. This movie seems to Wolverine as "Hurt" was to Johnny Cash, and I love that it's available in B/W. The thing about it being both color and black & white, however, leaves me with one tiny shard of disappointment. It's not a big thing, and certainly not something that taints the movie for me by any means, and that is the fact that the decision to go B/W wasn't made prior to production. The reason I say this is because it caters to the "your way right away" generation. Petty, I know, but I have the same feeling about photography. In the film days, you had to make a conscious decision when buying the film whether or not to shoot in color or B/W. You don't have to do that with digital - I mean you can, the setting is right there on the camera, but most people (myself included) don't use it. They usually just shoot in full color, and then edit to B/W after the fact. It was also the same way for me when buying movies on VHS in the days before DVDs. If you wanted Widescreen, you had to make that choice in the store when you bought it. Now, you just pop in the disc and make that choice in the menu.
That said, I won't be missing this one if I can help it. I'm a sucker for good B/W (or at least partially B/W) movies, i.e. "Pi", "Young Frankenstein", "Eraserhead", "American History X", "Memento", "The Elephant Man", "Rumble Fish", "Schindler's List", "Natural Born Killers", etc."

Have you seen 'Tetsuo: Iron man'? Also try 'Down by law', 'Stranger than paradise', and 'Dead man'. Jim Jarmusch is the bomb. 'Night of the hunter', 'Touch of evil'. I think all of these are B/W.

Oh man I used to watch that Iron man all the time. I forgot about that one too. Because it had subtitles and was visually interesting, they used to play it on the tvs at a club I used to go to all the time. It was pretty perfect watching it while techno and industrial blared in the club.

The Japanese know how to do it. I always put this in the same class with 'Eraserhead' and 'PI'. It has intensity. A color movie, with a similar taste of madness, is called 'Bad boy Bubby'. It's not for children.

I've seen eraserhead and Pi. Will have to cancel out bad boy bubby. Thanks!

Australia sure knows how to make messed up movies.

Was I supposed to vote for my own?

Yeah you can vote on your own suggestion of course and feel free to vote on other ones too! Also different percentages of votes to the ones you feel should win are recommended! Thanks.

Thank you! I am going to try and participate in this on a regular basis. It is another way to reward engagement.

Exactly! :)

The comment has to be a today's comment? We curate comments daily thus, we have lot's of worthy comments!

Awesome, feel free to nominate them!

Awesome! Glad you like the idea and thanks for the suggestion! :)

We are from steemit, we are here to help.

Comment from @kibbjez on a post from @rahul.stan that you, @acidyo, and @papa-pepper both commented on.

Original post made yesterday about potential improvements for Steemit. Can't link. I'm ignorant and on the mobile....

Awesome, thanks for the nomination!

I don't know if it is too late to nominate but I wanted to include this comment. I wrote a post that I'm about to become a 10 MV steem hero in SP and was asking for names, I got this response.

"When I'll reach this cap too, I want to be call : The Steem Soushi !

For you, I recommend you pass from geek to hero so... why not Whatahero ?"

Edit: thanks for the quote! :)

Gave me a good chuckle so why not? Cheers!

Haha it was indeed a great comment! :D

Resteemed, cause this is a good idea too!

Thanks! Hope we get some more suggestions else I might have to change it to "Contest of the Week" haha!

Lol! It'll catch on, it's only day 2^^

Not like the entrant needs to really do anything either, just pop a link down.

C'mon people!

Yeah heh was trying to keep it as simple and rewarding as possible. ^^

Today's nomination:

"The idea of putting certain features behind a paywall is counter to the Steemit philosophy IMO. inclusiveness should be #1."

Also, did you not see my nomination on the last post?

Oooh! My bad! I remembered reading it but must have accidentally missed it earlier when deciding the winners! But great now we have a 2nd winner in the previous contest! :)

It's all good. Thanks @acidyo

Thanks for the reminder!

Thanks for the suggestion! :)
