Guest Askewniverse Report post Posted May 15, 2004 The other movie tournament was pretty bad, so I’m going to try to run a “real” movie tournament. The tournament will consist of 64 movies. This is the nomination thread. Rules: (1) Nominate your favorite movies, even if someone else has already nominated it. The movies that get the most amount of votes will be entered into the tournament. If there’s a tie for the last spot, there will be a tiebreaker thread. (2) You can nominate up to 32 movies. (3) This rule is subject to change, depending on how people feel about it. Trilogies do not count as one movie. The same goes for any other movies that may have been split up, such as Kill Bill. Voting ends on Tuesday, May 18th. My nominations: 1. The Godfather, Part II 2. Goodfellas 3. Clerks 4. Mallrats 5. Chasing Amy 6. Reservoir Dogs 7. Pulp Fiction 8. Kill Bill Vol. 1 9. The Evil Dead 10. Evil Dead II: Dead by Dawn 11. Army of Darkness 12. The Punisher (2004) 13. Freddy vs. Jason 14. American Beauty 15. Donnie Darko 16. Terminator 2: Judgment Day 17. The Crow 18. Star Wars: Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back 19. Aliens 20. Leon: The Professional Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Askewniverse, we're probably two of the few people in the world that would have Mallrats on a 'Favourite films' list. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Askewniverse Report post Posted May 15, 2004 Since The Godfather already won a movie tourney (YNA's), should it be ineligible for this tourney? It's up to you guys. One quick note: If there's more than one version of a movie (Psycho, Dawn of the Dead, etc), please indicate which one (if you haven't already done so).
