[Nate6]

Wicked-ass tournament, my cool friend.

[Hannibal21]

The Birds

[mrdeeds]

The Birds, I could never stay awake watching Dr. Zhivago

[charliebobo]

Ditto

[dh1989]

The Birds. Doctor Zhivago is a great film, but Hitchcock's masterpiece is one of my all-time favorites and always gives me nightmares. I can't imagine voting against it.

[PrettyInPink]

Dr Zhivago.

[BadCoverVersion]

This is going to be a really tough tournament...NICE choices Puck!!!

This round, I'll go with The Birds.

Hmmmm, I'm looking back on your choices mate...and I can't see KES up there...:(...;).

BCV and RenHoek...sorry guys I already have the movies and seedings set in stone...it's tough to leave out certain movies I know, but nothing I can do now.

Heeeeey, I was only teasing ya' Puck...this is a superb tournament.

So many faves up there...Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?, Lolita, West Side Story, To Kill a Mockingbird, Whatever Happened To Baby Jane?...and many of the CLASSICS of course.

Besides, I don't think I could handle watching my beloved Kes get a severe arse-kicking...:(
