I spent at least 5 minutes just staring at The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly vs The Bridge On The River Kwai.

The rest were easier, and I'm really pulling for It's a Wonderful Life and Rear Window.

sabotai · 02-27-2017, 09:42 PM

Lots of movies in this group that I still need to see.

Radii · 02-28-2017, 03:22 AM

So happy to see Its a Wonderful Life up against something that can take it down early.

Butter · 02-28-2017, 07:57 AM

NORTH BY NORTHWEST vs. THE MALTESE FALCON

Ugh, that's a tough one. Think I'm going with MALTESE FALCON, mostly because I think it will lose.

Butter · 02-28-2017, 07:58 AM

And the further I get away from the LotR movies, the more I don't see the brilliance. They were just dragged out far longer than necessary.
