Night of the Living Dead

[The_Return]

5-1, Night of the Living Dead puts One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest out of the tournament, and this time, it aint coming back. [See final match of Round 1]

http://images.amazon.com/images/P/6300214060.01._PE77_.Raiders-of-the-Lost-Ark._SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg

[alkytrio666]

CITIZEN KANE!

One of the greatest landmarks of American cinema. I just got this 2-disc set for X-mas, but I should have had it longgg before.

[slasherman]

My vote = Raiders of the Lost Ark.....even though "Citizen Cane" is a masterpiece...I like them both ...tough one !

[Dante'sInferno]

Citizen Kane

[AUSTIN316426808]

[taylorsmommy]

Raiders

[The_Return]

3-2, Kane leads.

[bwind22]

I have to laugh every time I hear someone try to tell me that Citizen Kane is the best film of all time. In my opinion, it's the most over-rated and one of the most boring.

Raiders of the Lost Ark all the way.

[scouse mac]

Raiders of the lost ark

4-3, Raiders pulls ahead!

[AUSTIN316426808]

6-4, Raiders of the Lost Ark comes from behind and wins this final match of Round 3!!


Austin- No, once you post a vote, it's final. Unless you edit it before I notice, of course:p


Give me about 10-15 minutes to draw the matches, and Round 4 will begin!

[bwind22]

I vote for ......... The Gate.














Just kidding. How many films are still left in the tourney?

[The_Return]

There are 16 films going into Round 4. Started with 126, so we've come quite aways!

Not quite finished with the matches, just wait another min or 2....

[The_Return]

Ok, just another quick recap of the rules before the opening match of Round 4:

-5 votes to move on to Round 5

-1 vote per person

-Once you post a vote, you CANNOT CHANGE YOUR VOTE! So think it through before you post!

-Votes from Members with Less than 10 posts WILL NOT BE COUNTED.

A final warning- There are some incredibly hard matches here...this is going to be an exciting Round! So lets get it started!
