Can only vote on a few of those matches but I'm only 14% married this week so will see what else I can watch and hopefully knock that number up...

Want to watch 4 for this round.

Round 1, Set 2

Apologies to Ms. M, i personally wasn't a big fan of Fried Green Tomatoes. There was nothing wrong with it, it was a nice little film with some good performances it just isn't the type of film i'm that into that much anymore and i personally found it a little too long. Glad i gave it a shot as i rarely try films like that anymore. Carlos is one of my favourite films which makes this an easy decision.

Carlos vs Fried Green Tomatoes

Two ties remaining, should be easy to find one for the Conversation vs WSS one, i may have to watch A Man Called Horse myself to sort the other out.

Lolita Vibrator Torture (1987) vs Miller's Crossing (1990)

Have you seriously seen that?

I'm going to watch The Conversation so I can break the tie.

Round 1, Set 2

Bless you Siddon for taking one for the team. Hope you're not on some sort of register now

Yeah if I get a call from the FBI for watching that garbage..I will, well I'll likely be in Gitmo but if I'm not I would never forgive or let you people forget it.

Round 1, Set 2

Thanks for making such an effort for the tournament Chyp

I've only watched three and i'm the host.

Ha, you might not be thanking me if all I've done is create more eventual ties Besides, I've been meaning to get round to Woman In The Dunes and Tetsuo for quite some time, loved the Three Colours trilogy so was easily up for something else from Kieslowski and Equus has a nekked Jenny A of legal age in it which is never a hardship to view so none of them were exactly a chore

Full disclosure: I have seen Equus before but not for some time and really appreciated the refresher

It's not a competition in terms of who can view most though and having shipped herself to the UK until Thurs evening I needed something to pass the time today

Which film was from Kieslowski? Blanking on that for some reason.

Blind Chance [Przypadek] is his.
