The 2001 movies tournament

[Sad man]

This game is like a battle between 2001 movies.
I´ll name 16 2001 movies.The first two movies will fight each other until one of them wins(The only thing you have to do is to name the movie you want to win on your post)

EXAMPLE-
Let´s say the match is betwwen SCREAM and HALLOWEEN

So, if you want HALLOWEEN to win, you have to write it´s name on your post, and that´s it.
The match will be finished when one of the movies gets enough votes to win.

OK, here is the list of the 16 movies of 2001(They are only 16 ´cause there were a lot of films that year)

A BEAUTIFUL MIND
HARRY POTTER AND THE SORCERER´S STONE(OUT)
THE LORD OF THE RINGS: THE FELLOWSHP OF THE RING

HARRY POTTER

http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B00003CXHZ.01.LZZZZZZZ.jpg


I give my vote to the magic of Harry Potter(8/10), as I said before, A beautiful mind(6/10) is not bad, but it was very overrated.Ok, now you can vote, match will end when ther´s enough votes.

[A.J. Hakari]

A BEAUTIFUL MIND

[charliebobo]

A Beautiful Mind

[Nate6]

A Beautiful Mind

[Kimmy]

harry potter (only because i think sneep is cute)

[ColinM]

Both are great, but I vote for A Beautiful Mind.

[Jimmy_K]

A Beautiful Mind

[Moviefan1234]

"A Beautiful Mind"

[urbanlegend23]

Ohh...so close. Both 10/10 films!

But it's gotta be A BEAUTIFUL MIND.

[Sad man]

A BEAUTIFUL MIND won!!!, sorry Harry, I guess your wand doesn´t work here.
The final score is 7-2 for, of course, A BEUTIFUL MIND.

Ok, let´s move on fellas, match 2 it is.

MATCH 2



LORD OF THE RINGS

http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B00003CWT6.01.LZZZZZZZ.jpg

VS.

GOSFORD PARK

http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B00005JKND.01.LZZZZZZZ.jpg


My vote is for the brillant LORD OF THE RINGS(10/10), sorry GOSFORD PARK(9/10), I thought you were a great movie.

Vote now, and match will end soon.
It´s an easy one.

[asyouwish530]

A very tough choice for me.

LORD OF THE RINGS: THE FELLOWSHIP OF THE RING

[BadCoverVersion]

Gosford Park

[charliebobo]

Gosford Park

[A.J. Hakari]

LOTR: FOTR for me. I'm still trying to figure out who a third of the friggin' people in GOSFORD PARK were.

[Nate6]

Oh god, I don't know, this is a tough one. I give both a 7/10.

I suppose, for sheer artistry, LOTR: FOTR wins me over on this one. But just barely.

[Jason Voorhees]

LOTR, definitely.

[SubMethod]

LOTR

[Sad man]

Come on people, we just need a few more votes.

Oh, by the way, Lord of the rings is winning(Duh!)


Vote!!!!

[Michael_myers]

Gosford Park. LOTR was boring!

[urbanlegend23]

Ohh thats very easy for me.

LOTR - 9/10
GOSFORD - 7/10

LOTR definitely.

[Invincible]

Lord Of the Ring: FOTR

[Hardcore Horror]

Lord of the Rings!!

[ColinM]

LOTR: FOTR (9/10) beats out the overrated Gosford Park (5/10) but a considerable margin.

[Sad man]

Lord of the rings wins!!, you can keep your rich fake people Gosford Park.
The match is over by a not close 10-3.

This match is between anothe two big and great movies.They are both Oscar movies, but only one of them took one home.

MATCH 3

MOULIN ROUGE

http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B000077VR3.01.LZZZZZZZ.jpg

VS.

AMÉLIE

http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B0000640VO.01.LZZZZZZZ.jpg

My vote goes to Amelie(8/10), only because I know that Moulin Rouge(8/10) is going to win.
They are both great movies, but I think that Amelie in more original.

Thank you for voting on the last match!

Now I need you again! vote vote vote!!!

[Ren Hoek]

And my vote goes to.....

Moulin Rouge (8/10)

I think that Amelie (4/10) is just a 2-hour-long commercial... well-designed, but w/o any substance.

[charliebobo]

Damn my two favorite movies of 2001 up against each other! :(

I vote for Amelie (10/10) but Moulin Rouge is great too (9.5/10)

[Invincible]

Amelie, what a kool movie! :p

[BadCoverVersion]

Moulin Rouge

[A.J. Hakari]

Love lifts me up where I belong...

MOULIN ROUGE

[SenorSpielbergo]

AMELIE

[asyouwish530]

Moulin Rouge

[Horror whore]

MOULIN ROUGE

[urbanlegend23]

MOULIN ROUGE - 10/10
AMELIE - 7/10

MOULIN ROUGE by a long shot. AMELIE was good but seemed a bit too...manipulative or commercialised if you know what I mean.

[Jason Voorhees]

Tough choice. I guess I'll have to say "Amelie."

[Caranmetiel]

well i didn't see amelie but i loved moulin rouge... can i still play? LOL

MOULIN ROUGE

[Requiem-for-a-Dream]

Amelie!!!!

Matt

[Invincible]

MR is in the lead

[ColinM]

Ditto here, definitely. I've got to vote for Moulin Rouge (10/10), my favorite of 2001 and one of my Top Ten favorites, but Amelie (9/10) is great too, and it's in my Top Five of 2001.

VS.

HEDWIG AND THE ANGRY INCH

http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B00005QW5X.01.LZZZZZZZ.jpg

I choose this two to fight eachother because one is about a travesty singer and the other has a kiss between two boys.But really, I have no idea why I put this two toghether.

I vote for the outsanding HEDWIG AND THE ANGRY INCH(8/10) what a great movie!.American Pie 2(5/10) sucked!!, the first one was cool, but this one...not good at all.

Ok guys, please vote!!!.The match will end in a couple of days.

[Nate6]

AP2 did suck...I vote for the interesting Hedwig and the Angry Inch.

[screamer581]

Hedwig all the way!

[Ren Hoek]

woah, American Pie was awful... and the sequel even worse!!!

HEDWIG!!!

[Jason Voorhees]

Guess I'll be the sole vote for American Pie :).

[ColinM]

I haven't seen Hedwig, but I vote for it. It looks creative and interesting, while AP2 wasn't really that good.

[urbanlegend23]

HEDWIG AND THE ANGRY INCH

AMERICAN PIE 2 was stupid.

[Hardcore Horror]

American Pie!

[charliebobo]

Hedwig!

[Invincible]

"Monsters, INC."

[Jason Voorhees]

I guess, after some deliberation, I have to say Monsters, Inc.

IF Monsters Inc. gets one more vote it will be the winner.
Come on, it´s just one vote!!!!

I vote for Pearl Harbour, just to make the match more interesting, ´cause I know you´ll all vote for Black Hawk Down.
Ok, don´t forget to vote!!!

[Ren Hoek]

no doubt...


Black Hawk Down

[Moviefan1234]

I really enjoyed both. Yes, that's right, I think "Pearl Harbor" is a good movie. However, "Black Hawk Down" is a tad bit better.

[Sugar Magnolia]

Black Hawk Down was an intense piece of film while Pearl Harbor was crappy love story set around one good scene.

MULHOLLAND DR.

http://i.imdb.com/Photos/Ss/0166924/MDCL1536X1024_2.jpg

Wow! It´s a hard one!.But I vote for the brillant Mulholland dr.(10/10), a movie to remember.I mean, The man who wasn´t there(8/10) was great, but I like movies were I do have to think hard.

Vote!!!

[Rated R]

I vote for The Man Who Wasn't There reluctantly because Mulholland Dr. was just nuts, I loved both...but I think I slightly prefer the Coen's noir masterpiece.

[Nate6]

I completely agree with Rated R's comments, and I also vote for The Man Who Wasn't There.

[dh1989]

The Man Who Wasn't There!

Mulholland Drive was crappy.

[Ren Hoek]

I can't express in words how much I #?%:mad:!§ Mulholland Dr.. My vote goes to

THE MAN WHO WASN'T THERE

[mattjk_17]

The Man Who Wasn't There

[A.J. Hakari]

I'm with Sad man here...I vote for the maddeningly involving MULHOLLAND DRIVE.

[dannywalker17]

Mullholland Drive I guess.

[Jason Voorhees]

I've made my thoughts on Mulholland Drive pretty well known around here...

I'm voting for the The Man Who Wasn't There.

[Gregorious8]

The Man Who Wasn't There for me

[Trinity]

Mulholland Drive

[someguy]

Mulholland Drive

[screamer581]

A.I.
http://i.imdb.com/Photos/Ss/0212720/CN75-18r.jpg

Oh boy, what a hard match.They are two films I love.The Others(9/10) was great and NO!, It wasn´t a ripoff of Sixt sense.A.I.(9/10) well is great too, but what the heck... My vote goes to
THE OTHERS.

[SenorSpielbergo]

A.I.(9/10) is my pick

[Ren Hoek]

I think both films had gigantic flaws, but were nevertheless enjoyable. As a Kubrick fan i vote for...

A.I.

[arto_j]

A.Igets my vote, since it has more re-watch value, but I did enjoy The Others as well.

[Trinity]

I liked them both, but my vote goes to THE OTHERS.

[Moviefan1234]

I liked both, but didn't think either of them were great. I'll go with "A.I."

[Sugar Magnolia]

I'm gonna vote....A.I.

[charliebobo]

A.I.

I didn't care much for The Others

[A.J. Hakari]

THE OTHERS

[screamer581]
