At this point, I assume BES has 100 accounts to make sure Star Wars and LOTR movies survive.

20 votes in, Jurassic Park running under 80% for the first time all tournament.


And you clearly don't know BES that well. He'd stab the Star Wars soundtracks in the back with a skinny lightsaber to get LOTR a step farther!

TTT was head by about 5 votes in the morning, then Jaws went ahead in the afternoon. I was going to close the poll at 9 last night, but they were tied, so I left it open 2 more hours until someone finally voted, giving the W to The Two Towers.

Well the Round of 8 saw about 20% fewer votes cast; not sure if that was just people's favorites getting beat or what, but the Final Four has dawned.

Your Round of 8 winners:

#1 Jurassic Park def. #2 The Dark Knight 77%-23%
#1 The Empire Strikes Back def. #2 Gladiator 74%-26%
#1 Star Wars def. #2 Raiders of the Lost Ark 59%-41%

and the Cinderella story continues with

#14 The Two Towers def. #5 Batman 53%-47%

Will take me just a couple of minutes to count vote totals and reseed and we're off to the semifinals.

I don't know why, but I get the feeling John Williams will get the W in this tournament.

Star Wars vs. Empire. I don't think I can decide.



No matter who wins, it's still going to hurt.

Glad for a potential SW vs LOTR final.

Sad it's not FOTR, but I'll take it.

Yoda is a humble guy, so he won't necessarily vote for the film he is actually in.

Glad JP got it's deserved recognition even if it doesn't get the title here...one of the coolest things I got to experience a few years ago while visiting Kauai was sailing the Na Pali coastline and the catamaran blasting 'Journey to the Island' when we were approaching the site from the helicopter scene

Personally, I love the JP score but it way overperformed here.

I don't know if it'd be in my top 10.

Formality at this point.

When people say "personally", it's generally understood to mean it's an opinion.

ET
Superman
SW, ESB, TPM, ROTS

To name a few.

Choices for the next competition

1) Best Movie Trailers - similar format to this with nominations

2) Game of Thrones moments - I have the opening nominations about 90% done

3) The Best of Everything Tournament - in the vein of best movies 2020-2050.

All sound fun, Muck. Thank you for offering to run another one. I'll vote for #3. Part of me wanted to go with the trailers, but I'm pretty sure the daily YouTube links would cripple our mobile browsers.

I have one I am planning to roll out.... nobody has mentioned it so I'll keep it secret for now.

But it is gonna be good

I've been super busy so it may be next week before I can launch it with nominations although I have 75+ entries already.
