BanzaiCat · April 15, 2018, 04:08:26 PM

Sorry about the long hiatus between the last bracket and this one; RL, specifically work, has been a brake on me being able to keep track of these things the last few weeks. Nevertheless here we are again, and I hope you'll watch the trailers and vote!

1991 in Film was not a deep bag, though I have several 'good' ones here, I think.

BRACKET ONE: 1 vs. 16

1. Flight of the Intruder

16. What About Bob?

BRACKET TWO: 8 vs. 9

8. The Naked Gun 2 1/2

9. Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey

BRACKET THREE: 5 vs. 12

5. Soapdish

12. King Ralph

BRACKET FOUR: 4 vs. 13

4. Regarding Henry

13. Toy Soldiers

BRACKET FIVE: 6 vs. 11

6. Hot Shots!

11. City Slickers

BRACKET SIX: 3 vs. 14

3. The Silence Of The Lambs

14. Cape Fear

BRACKET SEVEN: 7 vs. 10

7. Necessary Roughness

10. The Rocketeer

BRACKET EIGHT: 2 vs. 15

2. Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country

15. Terminator 2: Judgement Day

LOL... some one has to be him today...he's full of shit! :D

The levels/rankings are not necessarily based on how good they are, but rather how I wanted them to sit in the seeding, and whom they would be up against. I wanted some tough decisions to need to be made.

Pfft. That's a no-brainer.

For the sake of accuracy, I was neck-deep in bullshit, not full of bullshit.

Meanwhile, I'm trying to figure out how Silence of the Lambs is a 3-seed.

Only 3 movies in history have swept the big-4 Oscars, and it's one of them

All I have to say is Jennifer Connolly's, ahem, assets in The Rocketeer is my MVP.

Y'all are free to bitch about anything you want. See reply above re: my method of seeding.

I cannot argue this logic. Makes me appreciate soup all the more.

I can honestly say that this movie (and specifically her dress) is when I went from being a kid to "Whoa, what are THOSE??? Me likey"
