Remember the worksheet they used to give out at school that said read all the instructions before you start, and like #23 said to ignore the rest of the directions and just put your name at the top and turn your paper over? But half your classmates would start doing each instruction in order without reading all the way through and end up writing out the star spangled banner and drawing 500 lines before they figured it out? That's what this thread reminds me of.

So there can be only 1 winner...but apparently it won't be Highlander.

I loved the Dune book, but the movie was terrible.

As a kid, I enjoyed the Flash Gorden movie, but even then, I know how corny it was.

Why would you abbreviate return of the jedi as BTTF?

All I'm saying was Dune was a far better film than the first Terminator.

I hate that Princess Bride was against Conan the Destroyer. Destroyer was a better movie than Barbarian.

This thread has the potential to make the Game of Thrones S8 thread look like a mild disagreement among church elders over whether to serve coffee cake or cookies.

Let's just get it out in the open. I never liked ET. Dune was terrible.

I completely agree on ET. Not really a good movie. I love Dune, but I recognize it's not a great movie.

Damn was hoping for some upsets there in the bottom few.

Give me

Mad Max over Bill and Ted
The Abyss over Superman II
Khan over ET
Conan over TRON

But they won't matter much in the next round. Pretty much as expected.

It was that punk kid Hot Rod who caused this...



I had so many gifs at the ready if Transformers made a run.

That was a surprisingly easy bracket for me, blew right through it.

Also, I can finally post this and it's actually relevant.

God f'ing Dammit. I missed the sci-fi round. Complete horsesh^t.

#4 Superman II 56%, #19 The Abyss 44%


And this is a terrible, terrible win. Superman II is unwatchable. I tried to watch it not too long ago. Actually turned it off.

A lot of people don't like The Abyss because they've only seen the heavily edited theater version. The three hour director's cut is amazing.

Agreed. Superman II isn't very good. Abyss is way better.

Also, never been a big fan of Princess Bride.
