Guest Youth N Asia

All Right...here's round one, I put them in four groups, A-D, it'll make it a little easier on me to do it that way.

 

And it's a matter of opinion...an opinon of which movie the person likes better, so please no flaming if some obscure movie that 12 people have you heard you picked didn't win.

 

It's all in good fun:)

 

There was no seeding, so I did it by alpahbet, it made it easier for me to put the list in order and it seemed fair. Numbers came first, and I didn't put THE in front of movies that start with that, you'll see what I mean.

WHOAH! Just a cotton-pickin' minute here! You're telling me that The Sweet Hereafter doesn't make the cut, but Wet Hot American Summer and Die Hard do??!?!

 

That's a freakin' injustice if I ever did see one......

I just want to say that it pains me that two of my all time favorite movies in The Color of Money and the Searchers are getting no love. I guess that's what I get for liking cinematic classics over cult clutter you can see on USA up all night (and I knew Clerks was going to waste Color of Money, but how many of you have actually seen Searching for Bobby Fischer?)

 

I also believe that it is unconstitutional to put the two Godfather movies up against each other in the first round.

 

Can we makes cases for films or is this just another voting round to weed it down some more?

tell me about it. 'touch of evil' is getting its ass kicked just because everybody that hasn't seen it is automatically picking 'tombstone'.

 

i'd hardly call 'the color of money' a cinematic classic though. i was really disappointed by it & think it's one of scorsese's weakest movies.

<----- Is still fuming that "Apocalypse Now" and "Platoon" didn't make the cut......

 

I mean, come on people! Sixteen Candles?! Now I'm as much of a Molly Ringwald fan as the next guy, but that's ridiculous.

 

I agree with what godthedog is saying, in fact, I'm guilty of it. If it comes down to a movie I haven't seen and another that I have seen, I'll automatically pick the latter.

 

Does anybody else see a problem with Apocalypse Now not being there? 'Cause I do.

Heathers is shit? I don't think so. Hell, I like it more than the other 3 films you mentioned. I can see if someone doesn't like Heathers, but to call it "shit" is a little bizarre.

and i'm absolutely SHOCKED that so few people recognize that 'the bicycle thief' is vastly superior to half the movies on the list, especially that piece of crap by the 'eek the cat' guy.

 

well, okay, i'm not shocked at all. but i am a tad pissed.

 

<----- Is still fuming that "Apocalypse Now" and "Platoon" didn't make the cut......

 

I mean, come on people! Sixteen Candles?! Now I'm as much of a Molly Ringwald fan as the next guy, but that's ridiculous.

Does anybody else see a problem with Apocalypse Now not being there? 'Cause I do.

 

i hate, hate, hate 'apocalypse now'. however, i understand how loved it is by so many, so it still should've made the list.

 

something else i realized: in the qualifying thread, not one of us mentioned 'raging bull'. because of this, we must all must commit mass suicide for our crime.

don't pick one movie over another just because you haven't seen the other one (unless the one you've seen is one of your favorite movies), it makes no sense.

I'd agree, but if you've never seen the other film, what are you supposed to do? Take someone else's word on it or just not vote?

 

e.g. I'll never be able to afford the OOP 400 Blows Criterion disc (which I've seen go for as high as $200!) and no video stores in my local area have it. Thus, in all likelihood I'll probably never see the film; sure it might be better than 12 Monkeys but I have seen that and I do like that, so does that mean I'm not allowed to vote for that just because I haven't seen 400 Blows?

by voting for '12 monkeys', you're attesting that '12 monkeys' is a better movie. which you can't really do, since you haven't seen 'the 400 blows'. if you just don't vote, you're admitting that you don't know which is better. this way, you can leave it to the people who have seen both movies to decide which is better.

 

doesn't it seem a little strange to judge which movie is better out of 2, when you've only seen one? i've seen 'searching for bobby fischer', but i haven't seen 'the searchers'. maybe 'searching for bobby fischer' is better, maybe it isn't. wrestlingdeacon has and, no matter what his taste is, he's in a better position to judge which is better. i sure as hell have no right to say which is better.

 

if there's a hollywood video in your area, they tend to have great foreign sections, and 'the 400 blows' is one of the 20 or so essential foreign films in almost any given video store. aside from blockbuster, any video store that has more than one rack of foreign films should have it.
