Chappie doesn't like the real world
I find the reaction that Bollywood films get from many people to be kind of weird - especially considering most people have probably never watched more than one or two (if that) in their lives. Sure, they tend to be very light but they are no worse than most of what Hollywood puts out these days. The main difference is that Hollywood is far more likely to put out high quality movies but 90% of what it produces is of a similar standard (or worse) than Bollywood.

Having said that, I agree with what Mark said about that movie - it's pleasant but way too long. I didn't feel like it particularly dragged or anything but if it was an hour and a half shorter it would be a nice little (b)romantic comedy.

Dil Chahta Hai vs. Lock. Stock and Two Smoking Barrels
I haven't seen a ton of Bollywood movies, but I've enjoyed a few. It helps that I happen to love love love Bollywood style dancing. Maybe most people dismiss them for many of the same reasons they dismiss musicals.

The problem with this tournament is that there are several movies that I really want to vote for, but I haven't seen the movies that they're up against, and I know enough about the other movie to know that I have no interest in the other movie. I may have to find time to watch some extra movies just to finish voting in this round.

It's true there are some matchups where you know your personal victor even if you haven't seen the opposing film, but I think it's necessary for it to be a requirement for one to have seen both, otherwise the individual element of this tournament would be ruined and the whole thing would be based on popularity and reputation alone.

I agree 100% that nobody should vote in a match-up if they haven't seen both movies in that match-up. That's why I didn't vote in a bunch of the match-ups.

Some of them, either I've only seen one of the movies, and I didn't like it, or I haven't seen either movie so I have no opinion in those match-ups, but there are several match-ups this round that I really, really, really, wanted to vote for a specific movie because it's a favorite movie of mine, but I couldn't vote for it unless I watch the other movie.

This is not really a complaint because I understand that these match-ups are random. It's just an observation.



You got to be kidding me! It doesn't get much tougher than this, although it most likely will be when we'll be closing in.

So many great ones against each other, how the hell am I supposed to choose. Oh well, here goes...

The Hunt deserved the win. Simply for being a better movie in general, Mads is incredible , the storyline is touching, realist and incredibly well-made.

Btw Pussy Galore and Cricket are the two right people
