EN World Movie Battle Royal! We have our winner!

Meh.
I have no investment in either of these two films, really. My vote goes to Bladerunner. (Though I would have liked to have seen something else in the top two, given the tremendous amount of awesome films that were listed!!)

While I love the LotR trilogy, and think the film is a reasonable adaptation, it really isn't a complete film, but rather part of a trilogy, where Bladerunner is a stand-alone film.

 

[demiurge1138]

Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring. It is part of a trilogy, yes, but it stands alone very well, and is a classic.

Demiurge out.

 

[Desdichado]

Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring.

Although that's probably pretty obvious from my statements upthread.

Joshua,
I am amazed that you didn't like Bladerunner that much since several of the races in your Homebrew campaign look like replicants straight from the moive.

Blade Runner. But my heart hangs low in remembering those movies that went before. Great they will be even after this thread has been forgotten.

#1 Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring (2001)

I give it to Fellowship of the Ring.

Okay, maybe it is only Part 1 of a trilogy, but I far prefer it as a film.

One of these days I will be able to splice together the fabled 1.5 version of Bladerunner -- put back in several of the voiceovers (which I thought provided some continunity and more of a noir feel, besides cutting into the endless rather dull cityscape shots), but of course I would leave the proper director's ending.

But...

**raising glass**

To films that passed before their time.

Well, except for Plan 9 from Outer Space and Manos, Hand of Fate!
