First off, let me just say this: the films are coming! They’re all done, the wheels are in motion, they’re in the pipeline and really really really soon, you guys are going to be among the first in the world to see them. Really. Soon.

And while you’re judging the films, Peter Jackson will be too. The big announcement will be made on March 5th, so you’ll have till then to watch the films, discuss them, debate them and decide which is your favourite – and believe me, that’s going to be a tough decision – and then one of our five finalists is going to get their big break at the 25th Film Independent Spirit Awards in Los Angeles!

Did I mention the films are coming? Stand by …
