[Berandor]

Northern Division

#1 Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring (2001): Poor Shrek, indeed
#8 Monty Python & the Holy Grail (1975): Tough, tough choice. Ultimately, I decided on rewatchability.
#5 The Matrix (1999): This movie was great despite its lead, Pirates was great because of its lead. I think Matrix with Johnny Depp - instant classic.
#4 City of Lost Children (1995): Jeunet!
#6 Ghostbusters (1984): My first exposure to Bill Murray
#3 Indiana Jones & the Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981): Hellboy was good, but not *that* good.
#10 Time Bandits (1981): This was the hardest one for me in the North.
As I've still not seen Shaun of the Dead, I refrain from voting.Just saw your comment on "no ties". Well, then: Close Encounters!

Eastern Division

#1 Alien (1979): No contest.
#8 Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (2000): I love that movie
#5 Spiderman (2002): That was harder than it seemed.
#4 Robocop (1987): I got nightmares from the acid-face walking in front of the car. And I still love "You're fired!"
#11 The Fifth Element (1997): How did Plan 9 survive round 1?
#3 Sleeping Beauty (1959) vs #14 Creature from the Black Lagoon (1954): no voteSleeping Beauty
#7 20,000 Leagues under the Sea (1954): I'm gonna vote against my own movie? Yes, of course. I'm Nemo!
#15 Dark City (1998): As Aliens will surely win, I feel safe in my vote for this gem.

Southern Division

#1 Brazil (1985): Brazil is a great, great movie.
#9 The Exorcist (1973): Very hard choice, but Exorcist goes all the way, and I admire that.
#12 Big Trouble in Little China (1986): Jack Burton lives!
#4 Bram Stoker's Dracula (1992): Yes, another movie I really enjoy, and Hopkins gives us a good show of why turning undead is charisma-based.
I haven't seen Hellraiser, so no voteTotal Recall
#14 The Adventures of Robin Hood (1938): Classic!
#7 Planet of the Apes (1968): If Krieg could once again post the monologue? That'd be great.
#2 Dr. Strangelove (1964)

Western Division

I don't think I know the Scarlet PimpernelBlade Runner
Never seen Willy WonkaBatman
#12 Sleepy Hollow (1999): Carpenter! Oh, uhm, no - Burton! Yeah.
#4 King Kong (1933): As long as Peter Jackson's version isn't out...
#11 Nosferatu (1922)
#3 Star Wars V: The Empire Strikes Back (1980)
Never seen the PhantomFrankenstein
#15 Spirited Away (2001): One of the greatest animated films I've ever seen.

MonsterMash: Aren't you missing the Northern division?

 

[Barendd Nobeard]

#11 The Fifth Element (1997): How did Plan 9 survive round 1?

It was paired against "Manos, Hand of Fate" which truly is a worse movie.

I'm surprised "Plan 9" is doing as well as it is in this round--it's got six votes so far, I think. Must be more "Fifth Element"-haters out there besides myself.

 

[Wombat]

Hmmm, the rounds seem to be going slower and slower...
