http://i.imdb.com/Photos/Ss/0181875/13

vs.

American Psycho
http://i.imdb.com/Photos/Ss/0144084/1-4.jpg

[DaveyJoeG]

I vote for Almost Famous.

[asyouwish530]

Damn it. Almost Famous

[bowieee]

Ack can't choose....

almost famous

[POLYDISTORTION]

tough one

almost famous

[screamer581]

Almost Famous, though I love American Psycho too.

[Mike]

Definitely ALMOST FAMOUS (8/10 or B+)! AMERICAN PSYCHO (2/10 or F) sucked!

Whoops! How on earth could I forget that!?! Gee I don't have time to do it right now but I promise I'll add it later.;)

[Rated R]

American Psycho to break the trend of these votes...

[Annie Hall]

Ohh man, this is harsh. But....I have to say...Almost Famous (sorry Patrick!)

[idealdiscountdude]

[Almost Famous (A).

A superb film!

American Psycho was a vile piece of shit. One of 2000's Worst Films. (D-)

[A.J. Hakari]

Warm rock fable...biting satire...damn this match!

After debating with myself for a minute or so, my vote goes to...ALMOST FAMOUS.

[Sad man]

Almoust Famous(10/10) it´ the best movie of 2000.
American Psycho(6/10) was overrated.

Almpust Famous for me...

[Mike]

Thank you! I knew you'd do the right thing ;)...

[urbanlegend23]

ALMOST FAMOUS - A+
AMERICAN PSYCHO - B

Definitely ALMOST FAMOUS!

[Gregorious8]

Almost Famous

Right on!

[mrdeeds]

Almost Famous, no question.

[Cyclonus]

American Psycho

[charliebobo]

Damn it. Almost Famous (10/10)

(but I also love American Psycho)

[arto_j]

Almost Famous is much better. So, I'll just vote for that.

[MarkItZero]

Almost Famous

[Damned Martian]

No doubt. American Psycho is far better.

[Nate6]

They're both very good, but I'll vote for Almost Famous.

[Puck Bond]

Almost Famous-10/10 gets my vote
American Psycho-8/10

[The Claw]

Almost Famous is my vote.

American Psycho is only okay.

[DaveyJoeG]

Almost Famous(20) beats out American Psycho(3). I'm surprised by the results, American Psycho seems pretty popular among the schmoes.

Now for the next match:

Before Night Falls
http://i.imdb.com/Photos/Ss/0247196/1

vs.

Best in Show
http://i.imdb.com/Photos/Ss/0218839/5

[DaveyJoeG]

Easier than the last match, I vote for Best in Show.

[Nate6]

Before Night Falls is the better film, but Best in Show is the more entertaining and enjoyable of the two, so it gets my vote.

[Rated R]

I agree with Nate6 completely and thus I too vote for Best In Show

[asyouwish530]

Best In Show

[Sad man]

Best in show i guess...

[A.J. Hakari]

The very hilarious BEST IN SHOW gets my vote (although BEFORE NIGHT FALLS was definitely a solid picture).

[SubMethod]

Best In Show

[Mike]

Best In Show was hilarious! I haven't seen Before Night Falls. So obviously, Best In Show gets my vote.

[screamer581]

Best In Show

[idealdiscountdude]

Best In Show (A-)

It's freakin' hilarious.

[POLYDISTORTION]

Best In Show

[bowieee]

Best in Show

[urbanlegend23]

BEST IN SHOW - B+
BEFORE NIGHT FALLS - N/A

Even though I haven't seen the oposition, BEST IN SHOW gets my vote becase it just keeps getting better every time I watch it.

[charliebobo]

Best In Show

[DaveyJoeG]

Best in Show(14) makes Before Night Falls(0) its bitch.

Next match:

Billy Elliot
http://i.imdb.com/Photos/Ss/0249462/billps04.jpg

vs.

Cast Away
http://i.imdb.com/Photos/Ss/0162222/Castaway_28_copy.jpg

[DaveyJoeG]

This is rather easy. I did not care for Billy Elliot so my vote goes for Cast Away.

[Puck Bond]

Cast Away-8/10 gets my vote
Billy Elliot-8/10

[screamer581]

Billy Elliot was good, but Cast Away gets my vote.

[arto_j]

Cast Away

[Mike]

I actually didn't see either of them, but since Billy Elliot is losing and doesn't have a single vote, I'll vote for it.

[Nate6]

Cast Away, Tom Hanks was amazing in it.

[Rated R]

Billy Elliot because Cast Away sucked the big one

[RogueSpear]

Cast Away

[Moviefan1234]

"Cast Away"

[SubMethod]

Cast Away

[charliebobo]

Cast Away

[Ren Hoek]

liked both (7/10), but Billy Elliot a little bit more

[POLYDISTORTION]

Billy Elliot

[idealdiscountdude]

Both films were great, but Castaway was a wee bit better! (Both films A-)

[Sad man]

Billy Elliot(8/10) is a great movie, Cast Away(6/10) was so boring and stupid...


Billy Elliot for me...

[A.J. Hakari]

CAST AWAY

[asyouwish530]

Cast Away

[urbanlegend23]

BILLY ELLIOT - B+
CAST AWAY - B+

I loved both pretty much equally but BILLY ELLIOT is just slightly better.

[DaveyJoeG]

Cast Away(12) defeats Billy Elliot(6) with little trouble.


Next Match:

The Cell
http://i.imdb.com/Photos/Ss/0209958/8

vs.

The Contender
http://i.imdb.com/Photos/Ss/0208874/2

[DaveyJoeG]

I vote for The Cell. It was great for what it was.

[screamer581]

The Contender

[Nate6]

The Contender is a masterpiece of intrigue and dirty little secrets, and a commentary on privacy and women in politics. It's highly underrated and it gets my vote.

[charliebobo]

Once again, I agree with what Nate said. I vote for The Contender

[MarkItZero]

The Conteder was awesome. Jeff Bridges playing the Dude playing the President was great.

[Ren Hoek]

I'm voting for the real film, The Contender, not for an overstylized 90 minute music video without music suc as The Cell

[idealdiscountdude]

Both are great movies, each meriting an A-,

However my vote goes to The Contender as the acting was superb!

[Mike]

I had always kind of wanted to check out The Contender but I never got around to it. But I did enjoy The Cell, the cinematography was excellent! My vote goes to The Cell.

[bowieee]

The contender

[Moviefan1234]

"The Contender"

[mrdeeds]

The Contender is the superior movie, but this was a very close match-up. Classic battle of style (Cell) over substance (Contender)

[A.J. Hakari]

This is a fierce battle of style over substance...Damn you, substance! ;)

THE CONTENDER gets my vote

[asyouwish530]

The Contender

[Horror whore]

THE CELL

[Sad man]

The Contender(6/10) was ok, but I loved the way The Cell(7/10) looked.That´s what makes the movie so interesting, otherwise, It´s just a bad serial killer flick.

[Gregorious8]

I've just seen bits of the Contender, so I'll go with THE CELL

[Shakamaker]

The Contender had me engrossed from start finish. Oldman and Bridges were superb! Get's my vote!

[urbanlegend23]

THE CELL - A
THE CONTENER - N/A

THE CONTENDER is always a movie I've wanted to see but just never got round to doing so. However I think THE CELL is a brilliant and underrated movie and it gets my vote.

[SubMethod]

The Cell

[The Handeman]

the cell

[DaveyJoeG]

Close match but The Contender(12) beats out The Cell(9).


Now for the Next Match:

Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon
http://i.imdb.com/Photos/Ss/0190332/s3-11.jpg

vs.

Erin Brockovich
http://us.ent4.yimg.com/movies.yahoo.com/images/hv/photo/movie_pix/universal_pictures/erin_brockovich/_group_photos/albert_finney1.jpg

[DaveyJoeG]

I hated Erin Brockovich but Crouching Tiger was one of my favorites of 2000, so my vote naturally goes to Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon.

[Mike]

I never saw Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and I don't want to either. But Erin Brockovich (10/10 or A+) was probably THE BEST film of 2000. Julia Roberts gave a GREAT performance, the best female performance of the year. I saw it once in theaters and several times on video. It's a GREAT film, I don't care what anyone says. My vote definitely goes to Erin Brockovich. I'm surprised at how underrated this movie has become. It's all those Julia Roberts haters ;).

[arto_j]

Never saw Brockovich for some reason, but Crouching Tiger was a blast and a great film. My vote goes to CTHD.

[idealdiscountdude]

What a match-up!

Both are superb films, meriting A Grades from me, but I gotta admit that I enjoyed Erin Brockovich more than CTHD.

Erin Brockovich gets my vote.

[Ren Hoek]

Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon

[RogueSpear]

Erin Brockovich

[Puck Bond]

Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon-10/10 gets my vote
Erin Brockovich-8/10

[SubMethod]

Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon

[MarkItZero]

Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon

[Moviefan1234]

"Erin Brockovich" (7/10)

[Rob Gordon]

Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon

[A.J. Hakari]

The consistently lovely and kick-ass CROUCHING TIGER, HIDDEN DRAGON gets my vote.

[The Handeman]

CTHD

[charliebobo]

Erin Brockovich

[Sad man]

Erin Brockovich(A-), I liked the other movie, but I found it plotless.So Julia Roberts gets my vote, although I thought that she didn´t deserve the Oscar.

[Annie Hall]

Oy, Brockovich (7/10) I suppose...liked it more than the desperately overrated Crouching Tiger (I've said it before, and I'll say it again....PLOTS...they are USUALLY important to a movie, which someone should remind the writer of CTHD...).

[Rated R]

Crouching Tiger...although I don't want to.


And Annie! Where have you been in my 1999 tournament? I am insulted! ;)

[Damned Martian]

CTHD

[Hannibal21]

Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon - 9/10 (Kickass action flick with a little bit of romance.)
Erin Brockovich - 5/10 (Julia Roberts ruined the film for me, she always ruin films for me.)

[PrettyInPink]

Erin Brockovich

[Nate6]

Erin Brockovich was painfully disappointing. Ultra-conventional with nothing new, just another Julia Roberts feminist scream-fest. If there's one movie I want out of this tournament, it's Erin Brockovich.

I vote for Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon.

[Santa Clause]

Erin Brocovich. Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is one of the worst movies ever made.

[DaveyJoeG]

Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon(13) slips ahead to beat Erink Brockovich(9).


Next match:

Final Destination
http://us.ent4.yimg.com/movies.yahoo.com/images/hv/photo/movie_pix/new_line_cinema/final_destination/_group_photos/ali_larter2.jpg

vs.

Finding Forrester
http://i.imdb.com/Photos/Ss/0181536/6

[DaveyJoeG]

I vote for Final Destination.

[Nate6]

Finding Forrester

And I am now fulfilled in my wish, Davey, shall I do you a favor now ;)

[Moviefan1234]

"Finding Forrester"

[Annie Hall]

Finding Forrester

"Bolt the door...if you're coming in"

[idealdiscountdude]

Final Destination (A-)

I have yet to see Finding Forrester.

[Ren Hoek]

Final Destination (6/10) was a good fun ride... but Finding Forester (7/10) had some more substance.

[QUENTIN]

Finding Forrester (7/10) beats Final Destination (7/10). Thank God Erin Brockovich got voted out, now the other awful movie on here needs to get the boot, the godawful Gladiator.

[mrdeeds]

Final Destination

[A.J. Hakari]

My favorite horror film from the last few years, FINAL DESTINATION.

[Hannibal21]

Final Destination

[urbanlegend23]

I liked Final Destination (7/10 or B) but Finding Forrester (8/10 or A-) is the infininetly (can't spell) superior film and it is so fucking underrated that it really pisses me off. My vote definitely goes to Finding Forrester.

[screamer581]

Finding Forrestor, and yeah Quent...let's get that piece of shit Gladiator out too!

[charliebobo]

Finding Forrester

[DaveyJoeG]

Keep those votes coming, it's a close one.

ditto here Urban, I loed both movies.
I was going to vote for Finding Forrester(8/10), but I´ll vote for Final Destination(7/10) ´cause Sean Connery is kicking Devon Sawa´s ass.

[SubMethod]

Finding Forrester

[Rob Gordon]

Final Destination

[DaveyJoeG]

Finding Forrester(10) barely sneaks past Final Destination(9).


Now for the Next Match:

Frequency
http://us.ent4.yimg.com/movies.yahoo.com/images/hv/photo/movie_pix/new_line_cinema/frequency/dennis_quaid/frequency.jpg

vs.

Gladiator
http://i.imdb.com/Photos/Ss/0172495/10

[DaveyJoeG]

I found Frequency rather disappointing so my vote goes to Gladiator.

[Hannibal21]

GLADIATOR

[screamer581]

Gladiator (4/10) is one of the most overrated films in years, so I vote for the pretty enjoyable movie Frequency (7/10).

[MarkItZero]

I was really surprised how much I liked Frequency, I went in not expecting much but it turned out to be a pretty enjoyable film.

Gladiator still gets my vote though.

[Moviefan1234]

"Gladiator" (9/10)

[idealdiscountdude]

Frequency gets my vote!

Gladiator is the least deserving Best Picture winner in history. It is an overrated, dull, muddy, piece of crap!

[Gregorious8]

Frequency

I didn't really enjoyed either, but I'll go with Frequency anyway

[Mike]

I haven't seen either of them. I hate Russell Crowe and Gladiator looks dumb. If I had to choose between the two, there's no doubt that I'd rather watch Frequency. So my vote goes to Frequency.

[Nate6]

This is a hard one because Frequency is soppy, contrived, and cheap-looking and Gladiator is murky, slow, and mildly disturbing (brother falls in love with sister? Ewww...).

I'm a little bit conflicted...I think I liked Gladiator just a tiny bit better.

[charliebobo]

Originally posted by idealdiscountdude

Gladiator is the least deserving Best Picture winner in history. It is an overrated, dull, muddy, piece of crap!

Yes. Yes it is.

However, Frequency is even worse IMO

So (I can't believe I'm saying this), I vote for Gladiator. May God have mercy on us all

[Ren Hoek]

Neither is really great... but Galdiator (7/10) was at least entertaining while FREQUENCY (5/10) was just too slow and boring to get my vote

[A.J. Hakari]

One of the best, most underrated films of 2000: FREQUENCY.

[RogueSpear]

Gladiator

[Tom Samborski]

Frequency

[bowieee]

Gladiator

[mrdeeds]

Geez this choices are tough. Gladiator, because I love epic movies.

[Sad man]

I enjoyed both, FREQUENCY was a surprise, and GLADIATOR was an obvious Oscar movie yet enterteining, being against Oscar movies(In some kind of way) I vote for FREQUENCY.

[Rob Gordon]

Frequency

[Damned Martian]

Gladiator

[BadCoverVersion]

Gladiator

When Russell was ATTRACTIVE...Oh he is mighty fine in Romper Stomper!!!

[Cole666]

Frequency was pretty good in my opinion, so it gets my vote.

[DaveyJoeG]

Close match but Gladiator(12) defeats Frequency(9).


Next Match:

High Fidelity
http://i.imdb.com/Photos/Ss/0146882/4

vs.

Meet the Parents
http://i.imdb.com/Photos/Ss/0212338/2272_K1516_18.jpg

[DaveyJoeG]

My vote goes for High Fidelity.

[scottish-movie-freak]

Its is tough but I'm gonna vote for Meet The Parents, High Fidelity was good but it could of been MUCH better (I've read the book, it had lots of potential).

[Nate6]

High Fidelity

[idealdiscountdude]

Meet The Parents

(I still haven't seen High Fidelity)

[charliebobo]

High Fidelity 9/10 gets my vote
Meet The Parents 7/10

[Damned Martian]

Yet another match in which I want to see both films, but I haven't seen any of them.:(

[bowieee]

High Fidelity

[Moviefan1234]

"Meet The Parents"

[POLYDISTORTION]

High Fidelity

[Ren Hoek]

High Fidelity - still wondering why it was set in the US rather than in London. Apart from that, a wonderful adaptation. ...actually I find nearly all films involving record collectors very intriguing (GHOST WORLD is another fav) because I can understand these people so well. And in addition: seeing John Cusack and Jack Black beating up Tim Robbins is just priceless.

[A.J. Hakari]

MEET THE PARENTS

[The Claw]

High Fidelity is my vote. A good movie.

Also, I thought Meet The Parents was rather unfunny and bad.

[screamer581]

High Fidelity!!

[Gregorious8]

High Fidelity

John Cusack can do no wrong in my eyes.

[Mike]

I rented High Fidelity (6/10 or C+) the week it came out on video and was disappointed. It was alright, but not great. Meet The Parents (7/10 or B-) was good, but not as great as some people said. I spent most of the movie feeling sorry for Ben Stiller's character and thinking "if I was him I wouldn't take that shit, I would just leave." Her family was fucking horrible and after awhile she became a bitch to. She didn't even stick up for him. Was I the only one wishing he wouldn't marry that bitch? Who would want to be a part of that family? I sure wouldn't. Granted, it was funny, but I felt sorry for the poor guy more than I laughed.

Anyway, my vote goes to Meet The Parents.

[notchreturns]

High Fidelity

[Horror whore]

MEET THE PARENTS (7/10) gets my vote since I haven't seen HIGH FIDELITY.

[RogueSpear]

Meet the Parents

High Fidelity sucked...

[Rob Gordon]

High Fidelity!!! Best obsessive collector's lifestyle movie EVER.

[SubMethod]

High Fidelity

[Sad man]

High Fidelity(9/10) a brillant film, Meet The Parents(8/10) was great too.But I still vote for the obsessed John Cusack.

[Annie Hall]

High Fidelity, by a skosh...Meet the Parents was hilarious. Fidelity hit a bit too close to home for comfort.

[screamer581]

Originally posted by RogueSpear

GRRRRR, take that back!:mad: ....:rolleyes:

[mrdeeds]

Both great comedies, but I gotta go with High Fidelity by a decibel

[DaveyJoeG]

High Fidelity(14) destroys Meet the Parents(6).


Next Match:

The Ninth Gate
http://us.ent4.yimg.com/movies.yahoo.com/images/hv/photo/movie_pix/artisan_entertainment/the_ninth_gate/johnny_depp/9gate.jpg

vs.

Nurse Betty
http://us.ent4.yimg.com/movies.yahoo.com/images/hv/photo/movie_pix/usa_films/nurse_betty/_group_photos/chris_rock1.jpg

[DaveyJoeG]

My vote goes to the solid, underrated Ninth Gate.

[A.J. Hakari]

NURSE BETTY

[Ren Hoek]

I'll just try not to think of the last 30 minutes of The Ninth Gate and vote for it ;)

[Puck Bond]

The Ninth Gate-8/10 gets my vote
Nurse Betty-8/10

[screamer581]

Nurse Betty

[SubMethod]

The Ninth Gate

[Mike]

The Ninth Gate (4/10 or D+) was interesting for a little while, but then it went majorly downhill very fast. And what was up with that horrible and just plain laughable ending (not the very ending but before that)? Freakin' stupid! Nurse Betty (8/10 or B+) was a very clever and funny comedy. Renee Zellweger was wonderful as usual. Nurse Betty definitely gets my vote!

[mrdeeds]

Nurse Betty.... Ninth Gate REALLY sucked!

[Damned Martian]

Nurse Betty

[Moviefan1234]

"Nurse Betty"

Definitely the wondeful Nurse Betty. Gotta love that Renée...

[Nate6]

Nurse Betty!

[Mike]

Wow, this match still isn't over yet. I say we just give it to Nurse Betty and move on to the next match...

[Nate6]

Come on, Mike, it's different. In your tournament, Rules of Attraction was up 13-4 over Swimfan. It's closer here...

[DaveyJoeG]

Thanks Nate, that and I've been rather busy this weekend. I was hoping when I got back to update the tournament there'd be more votes...

Okay Nurse Betty(10) defeats The Ninth Gate(4).



Next Match:

O Brother Where Art Thou
http://i.imdb.com/Photos/Ss/0190590/1

vs.

The Patriot
http://i.imdb.com/Photos/Ss/0187393/12

[DaveyJoeG]

My vote goes to the wonderful O Brother Where Art Thou. The Patriot was good, but not great. However in my eyes the Coen Bros. can do no wrong.

[arto_j]

I'm in complete agreement with you, Davey...O' Brother it is.

[Ren Hoek]

easy... O Brother Where Art Thou

[bowieee]

Oh Brother where art thou

[Mike]

Originally posted by Nate6

It wasn't that close, Nurse Betty was quite a few votes ahead of The Ninth Gate and it was obvious Nurse Betty was going to win.


Anyway, I can't vote on this one. I only saw bits and pieces of The Patriot and the part in the end when the horse gets killed appalled me, so it won't get my vote, plus the movie didn't look very good anyway. And I never saw O Brother Where Art Thou, it looked incredibly stupid.

[Damned Martian]

Although I didn't enjoy O brother where art thou (Coen brther's worst movie), it has to get my vote against "that".

[charliebobo]

Originally posted by damned martian

Exactly. O Brother Where Art Thou for me

[Hannibal21]

The Patriot was a much more interesting film. O Brother Where Art Thou was ruined by the talentless George Clooney.

[idealdiscountdude]

I liked both, but

O Brother... gets my vote!

[Annie Hall]

O Brother Where Art Thou?

Coen brothers simply rule all.

[screamer581]

O Brother!

[A.J. Hakari]

O BROTHER, WHERE ART THOU?

[Nate6]

The overacted, overdone The Patriot put me to sleep...I vote for O Brother Where Art Thou?

O Brother, Where Art Thou?

No, really...where art thou?

O Brother Where Art Thou?(15) delivers a steady defeat to the The Patriot(8).



Now for the Next Match:

The Perfect Storm
http://us.ent4.yimg.com/movies.yahoo.com/images/hv/photo/movie_pix/warner_brothers/the_perfect_storm/_group_photos/george_clooney2.jpg

vs.

Pitch Black
http://i.imdb.com/Photos/Ss/0134847/3

[DaveyJoeG]

I prefer the solid The Perfect Storm to the overrated Pitch Black.

[Rob Gordon]

Pitch Black
Inventive and more interesting.

[Nate6]

Pitch Black.

There was something I didn't like about The Perfect Storm, for some reason it seemed really boring and unnecessary to me.

[Mike]

I saw The Perfect Storm (5/10 or C-) in the theater and I was bored out of my mind. I gave it another chance on video and I still didn't care for it. And although I didn't find Pitch Black (6/10 or C+) to be that great either, it was cartainly better than The Perfect Storm. So my vote goes to Pitch Black.

[mrdeeds]

Pitch Black, I agree it is the more inventive of the two.

[A.J. Hakari]

The nearly-perfect THE PERFECT STORM.

[Cole666]

Pitch Black!

[screamer581]

They both get 6.5/10's from me, but I will go with the more fun Pitch Black .

[idealdiscountdude]

I liked both, but The Perfect Storm is better. (B+)

It gets my vote.

[RogueSpear]

[Tagia_Romero]

Pitch Black

[The Claw]

The Perfect Storm is my vote because it cant suck as much as Pitch Black did.

[DaveyJoeG]

Cough cough...


12-12

[urbanlegend23]

The Perfect Storm by far.

Pitch Black can go fuck a fucker, then eat the fucker's fuck.

[DaveyJoeG]

The Perfect Storm(13) barely sneaks past Pitch Black(12).

My vote goes to Quills. While Proof of Life was well done I thought it dragged in many parts; Quills, however, was in my top ten of 2000.

Even though I hate Crowe, Proof Of Life (5/10 or C) was still okay, yet pretty laughable at times. I do love Meg though so she's enough to cancel out Crowe. And since I didn't see Quills because I just wasn't interested in it, I'll give my vote to Proof Of Life.
