My votes:
1. Frankenweenie vs. The Red Balloon
2. Dimensions of Dialogue vs. Wallace and Gromit in The Wrong Trousers
3. Presto vs. The Heart of the World
4. La Jetee vs. Night and Fog (Abstaining. Can't decide)

Which makes the round 3 results look like this:
1. Frankenweenie (3) vs. The Red Balloon (1)
2. Dimensions of Dialogue (2) vs. Wallace and Gromit in The Wrong Trousers (4)
3. Presto (4) vs. The Heart of the World (2)
4. La Jetee (3) vs. Night and Fog (4)



1. Wallace and Gromit in The Wrong Trousers vs. Frankenweenie
2. Presto vs. Night and Fog

I really liked both the films I am voting against though, good semi-finals.



1. Wallace and Gromit in The Wrong Trousers vs. Frankenweenie
Well I finally watched Frankenweenie for this tournmanet, and this is a pretty tough choice. I'd give both the same ratings, and they're about equally entertaining. I thing the concept behind the second is smarter so that what I'm voting for.

2. Presto vs. Night and Fog
I enjoyed Presto more, but Night and Fog is the better film. It's the best one left imo.

This is the farthest one of my nominations has made it in any tournament ever. Yea! Go Frankenweenie.



Bright light. Bright light. Uh oh.
1. Wallace and Gromit in The Wrong Trousers vs. Frankenweenie
2. Presto vs. Night and Fog (Love Presto but what can I do?)

(Love Presto but what can I do?)
These matchups haven't been too kind to you, eh mark? Duck Amuck/Night and Fog, Frankenweenie/Red Balloon, now this one.

My votes:
1. Wallace and Gromit in The Wrong Trousers vs. Frankenweenie
2. Presto vs. Night and Fog

Semi-Final results:
1. Wallace and Gromit in The Wrong Trousers (4) vs. Frankenweenie (3)
2. Presto (1) vs. Night and Fog (6)



Which means our final will be contested by two films that I don't think could be more disparate:

Nuit et brouillard (Night and Fog)
Alain Resnais, 1955



vs.

Wallace and Gromit in
"The Wrong Trousers"

Nick Park, 1993



Vote away until June 24th!



Wallace and Gromit in The Wrong Trousers

Gonna have to go with my nomination, Night and Fog is a fantastic and devastating piece of work, but Wallace and Gromit is pure fun that I have enjoyed since I was a child.
