Round 1: Match 29


The Lion King

Disney adaptation of Shakespeare's Hamlet, only not quite as depressing. Animation is on the high end of the Disney spectrum, and the voice acting is the best of all the Disney movies, even the ones nowadays that cram stars into every role possible. One of the last great animated films in the States before Toy Story started the eventual swing to CGI.

VS

The Untouchables

Film adaptation of a now unspoken of TV series. Top-notch cast, highlighted by Sean Connery in the role that won him an Oscar.

Two great movies, but I have to go with The Untouchables

2-1 The Untouchables


So far, there's only one documentary that hasn't been eliminated, and it's the only one that hasn't had a match yet. So in theory, the entire Documentary genre could be eliminated in the first round

Round 1: Match 30



The Godfather

One of the movies generally regarded as the best of all time (along with Casablanca and Citizen Kane), and with good reason. The movie is absolutely great on every conceivable level. Acting, direction, cinematography, sound (something not often talked about in movies), pacing, everything. It's epic without feeling forced like a lot of movies, and a bunch of other stuff I could say, but really don't need to.

VS

Night of the Living Dead

Reinvented the zombie subgenre, if not horror in general. You don't see a lot of movies ripping off something like I Walked with a Zombie, or The Plague of the Zombies. They all go for NotLD. Dawn may have done it better, but this one did it first.



So...yeah, seems like every match involving The Godfather could've conceivably been the finals.
