(this is for my reference only)

movies to watch from this bracket - The Grapes of Wrath, La Grande Illusion, and The Long Good Friday

Re: MOFO Movie Tournament: Bracket 3
 

Just so you know, and I believe this is totally legit, but I watched about half of Good Burger when my daughter was a kid and a Kenan and Kel fan. I don't feel I need to watch the other half to know that Chaplin's beautiful The Kid beats it.

Tough match.

Also, I take it The Kid is this film:

and not this one:

Otherwise that'll be a tough match. Who the hell nominated Good Burger? Get off the glue!

3. Bicycle Thieves vs. 14. Rear Window
7. Sunset Boulevard vs. 10. The Grapes of Wrath

I'm going to take it that Bicycle Thieves got a tough draw. I'm not a big fan of it, but I know of a lot of people that are. But seriously, there's no way you can't vote for Rear Window.

The Grapes of Wrath is a fantastic film, though so is Sunset Boulevard. And yes, it is a close battle. The directors both did a great job with the film. I give The Grapes of Wrath the edge in cinematography though, and I got to give it my vote.

The Shawshank Redemption drew a tough matchup to start things off, but it's one of the better well-rounded films I've seen. Easily got my vote.

Re: MOFO Movie Tournament: Bracket 3
 

I've got to see The Long Good Friday and La Grande Illusion. I really can't see either getting my vote, but I figure The Wizard of Oz and Citizen Kane may be up against tough competition.

Sorry, but I did forget to mention the deadline for voting in this bracket. Voting lasts till July 16th.

Re: MOFO Movie Tournament: Bracket 3
 

i absolutely adore Sunset Boulevard, so i'm really looking forward to watching The Grapes of Wrath and seeing which one i decide to vote for.

you should edit the first post and put this info in. :p

Bicycle Thieves is a film which i never really enjoyed. So no way is it going to get my vote.

Re: MOFO Movie Tournament: Bracket 3
 

It really is a shame that The Grapes of Wrath drew such a tough opponent first round.

that's how i felt about Paper Moon in bracket 1. going against Star Wars it will never see the light of day.

how did you choose what goes against what, anyway? pull them from a hat randomly or whatever?

Re: MOFO Movie Tournament: Bracket 3
 

random.org

I put all the movies onto the list and randomized it 5 times.

OK, I haven't seen Good Burger, but I also know it's not as good as The Kid. So can I vote for The Kid, too? I shouldn't be punished just because I'm too bloody clever to watch crap like Good Burger.
