4 and 19 were ridiculously tough decisions. 14 wasn't a difficult decision, but a painful one. 7 and 17 were easy peasy.

[Mr Minio]

Two best films of '90 will most likely lose in the first bracket. If Pulp Fiction or Goodfellas doesn't win I'd be surprised.

I still weep for the world because of The Big Lebowski.

[Sexy Celebrity]

I also don't understand AT ALL the appeal of Nightmare Before Christmas.

I also don't understand AT ALL the appeal of Nightmare Before Christmas.

For real?! I love that movie. It's in a bad situation in this tourny though.

[Sexy Celebrity]

For real?! I love that movie. It's in a bad situation in this tourny though.

I know -- it's up against a movie I nominated. Let it suffer.

It looks like all of the women of MoFo vote for Nightmare and all the men vote for Terminator.

[Mr Minio]

I'm really surprised so many people here have actually seen Satantango and Eternity and a Day. Would love to know what you guys think about them and why do you think Se7en and Goodfellas are superior to them.

[teeter_g]

Satantango was entirely too long for me to enjoy. If I sit through it in pieces it is more tolerable. I just didn't care for Eternity, it wasn't my style at all.

No respect for Fallen Angels. For shame.

I really like everything else I've seen by Wong Kar-Wai, but Fallen Angels didn't do anything for me. It looked great, of course, but otherwise seemed like a less fun version of Chungking Express. Is there anything I should look out for if I give it another try?
