Play Misty For Me vs J. Edgar

Props to you for including Play Misty For Me. I absolutely love that film, such an underrated gem.

The Godfather Part II vs The Conversation

This isn't even close. The Godfather Part II is the best sequel ever made, and The Conversation is an overrated bore.

The Godfather Part III vs Apocalypse Now

I actually love both of these two, but Apocalypse Now wins.

The Social Network vs Zodiac

My two favorite Fincher films (though I haven't seen Se7en, so maybe I can't comment). Gotta go with Zodiac here though.

Play Misty For Me vs J. Edgar
Gran Torino vs Letter from Iwa Jima
Million Dollar baby vs Unforgiven
Mystic River vs The Rookie

The idea of this game is to choose which is the better film of these choices, right? I think I've done that. I do have a question about the last one, though. You've asked us to choose between "Mystic River," which is cited by many as one of the best films Eastwood has made, and "The Rookie," which is universally panned as one of his weakest efforts. The choice, to me, would seem to be obvious, and not one that many would disagree with, so I've got to wonder, why did you choose to match those two up? Do you happen to disagree with the viewpoint that "The Rookie" is a really weak film? Is it a favorite of yours, and you are wondering if other people may share that view? What is it that made you choose those two films? It was an interesting choice to me.

Or your favourite. Personally, I always go with favourite. Picking the 'better' one is usually pretty obvious, as you pointed out with Mystic River and I would with Unforgiven... But you seem to've got that one wrong. ;)
