I give my vote to Lord Tom. While he did not make as many movies as the other ones on the list his where the ones I enjoyed the most (well, 3 of them at least).

Yeah, that. It was a toss-up between the exploit in FaXanadu and the craziness of RBI, but Rygar (and a coin toss) said Tom.

I vote for Aglar because he TASed the most *man games.

My vote is Lord Tom. He "only" made four runs for NES this past year, but each one of them is brilliant. The other nominees have done more movies, but each have at most two or three truly excellent NES publications for this period.
How fleeting are all human passions compared with the massive continuity of ducks.

<sniffle> You didn't like one of my movies? :( Just kidding, but I am curious which one...Faxanadu? Too slow?

I didn't enjoy Faxandu too much because I never played the game, and I generally have a hard time enjoying TASes and speedruns of games I'm not familiar with.

Heathens! Faxanadu is the best game listed in this thread. Are you not entertained!! Is this not why you are here!! Although I have to admit Lord Tom did such a wonderful job that I actually hated the latest version for the new optimized movement. Sorry bro, you're still awesome though.

If Lord Tom had done two metroid games (100%, hint hint), instead of two rygar games, I'd have voted for him in a heart beat. However, I think adelikat deserves my vote for a very wide range of projects, along with taking care of some of the 2004 movies that no one else wanted to touch.
