I vote for Carrie, as a movie I think it it is better, though if it was based on the novels I would vote differently.

Fight Club.
Rayne, you've got to escape the box. Don't get me worng- I love horror. But I'd say that if I were to name the greatest movies I've ever seen, 1-2% would be horror. The fact is, it's a miniscule genre among a welath of fantastic movies. --------------- Some movies just aren't for everyone's taste, Return. I've been baffled for a long while as to why you reject Jaws and The Exorcist. :o (Both of which I consider to be far superior to Cronenberg's The Fly). |
Fight Club

as for me - not that anyone asked or cares - i thought fight club was overrated. it, like american beauty, were touted as super-smart, slick, complex critiques of american culture but in the end, for me, both failed to live up to their promise and fell into some fairly predictable cliches.
i think for me that's more true of american beauty - which i absolutely loathed - and probably some of that loathing splashed on to fight club - but i think both are instance of mainstream commercial holliywood 'playing' indie without really being brave enough to have indie sensibilities but i'm just a monkey so what do i know |
Fight Club for me as well.

Carrie .

Round 1 Match 48
The quietest hard-hitter of 2007, an experience which should be seen to be believed... http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/...-L._SS500_.jpg No Country For Old Men (2007) Director duo - Ethan & Joel Coen vs. A mind-blowing horrific tale about modern paganism and ritualistic dominance... http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/...ML._SS500_.jpg The Wicker Man (1975) Director - Robin Hardy |
No Country for Old Men.
Expect a shut out. |

It's too bad, because The Wicker Man is an extraordinary film.
But, yeah, I'm gonna have to go with the rightfully crowned best picture of 2007. |
As much as I love The Wicker Man, I have to say No Country for Old Men as well.
|
No country for Wicker man:rolleyes: !~?.....okay then, I vote The Wicker Man.
|
Wow I can't believe someone actually voted for Wicker Man. I expect Rayne to also vote for it if she votes.
Of course for me it is definitely No Country For Old Men. |
5-1, No Country For Old Men sizzles over The Wicker Man.

Round 1 Match 49
Arguably, THE best black comedy movie ever made... http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/...pL._SS500_.jpg Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb (1964) Director - Stanley Kubrick vs. Arguably, THE best black comedy-horror movie ever made... http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/...XL._SS500_.jpg Evil Dead II (1987) Director - Sam Raimi |

Oooo...two blacker than coal comedies.
Dr. Strangelove. |

5-4, Evil Dead II just about pips Dr Strangelove to the winning post.
