March Movie Madness

Tools    





2022 Mofo Fantasy Football Champ
In the spirit of March Madness, I'll be making a movie bracket (128 movies) in which movies go head to head. Then we will vote on which movie is better and after a certain period of time the movie with the most votes will win.

I'll probably start it in a couple of days, but just getting the warning out there.

The only criteria I'm using is it will be movies that are highly acclaimed (IMDB top 250, best picture winners, AFI's 100 movies....100 years) with a few of my favorites that aren't on those lists sprinkled in.

Hopefully everyone will enjoy
