Favorite Movie Tournament!

Postby Thesp on November 17th, 2007, 10:32 am

In shameless stealing from other unnamed websites - it's movie tournament time! Nominate up to 5 movies to fight against other movies in a titanic clash of movie beat-em-ups! Which movie will stand on top?

No criteria will be given. Any movie can be chosen for any reason. After they are chosen, they will fight it out in a movie duel to the death. Or to the badly injured. Or whatever.

VIEW!

We've got 34 right now - I'd like to get 64 (that's just 6 more people's movies!), but if we can't, I'll go with what we have. Poke people and have them nominate some new movies!
