The Cabinet Of Dr Caligari.

The_Return 04-23-2008 10:46 AM

Man, these matches are cruel!

I'm going to reluctantly say Dr. Caligari...but Blade Runner is equally incredible in a totally different way.

Bub the Zombie 04-23-2008 10:50 AM

Blade Runner without even a blink

The_Raven 04-23-2008 10:50 AM

...but if it was Back the The Future Part II, it would be a different story. I really like the whole series, but the second has one of my favourite screenplays...ever.

That's right, that's right
I'm sad and blue
'Cause I can't do the Boogaloo
I'm lost, I'm lost
Can't do my thing
That's why I sing
Gimme, Gimme Dat Thing ah..

Gimme Dat, Gimme Dat

Gimme Dat, Gimme, Gimme Dat,
Gimme, Gimme, Gimme, Dat Thing
(Ah, you ain't doin' that late at night)

Ah, what good's a metronome
Without a bell for ringing?
How fast can anybody ever tell he swings?
How can you tell the rhythm written on a bar?
How can you ever hope to know just where you are?
Gimme Dat, (Gimme Dat) Ah Gimme Dat (Gimme Dat)
Ah Gimme Dat, (Gimme Dat) Gimme Dat,
Gimme, Gimme, Gimme, Gimme, Gimme,
(Ah Gotcha!)

Gimme Dat, Gimme Dat

What's interesting about these tournaments is that you learn who likes the crappy movies and who likes the good ones....

The Mad Monk 04-23-2008 06:29 PM

Back To The Future.

The Thing is rather overrated, IMO. And it's a remake! And it has possibly the vaguest title ever!

_____V_____ 04-23-2008 07:24 PM

13-9, The Thing fights off a rather strong challenge from BTTF.
