In Bruges
Little Shop of Horrors

Chinatown
There Will Be Blood

Love Exposure

There are a few films here that I haven't seen, but I've decided that if I've seen at least half of the movies in each match, then I'm going to vote anyway. Besides, I have a feeling that The Saragossa Manuscript is going to need some help.

You're going to make Foggle cry, Pharass.

To be fair, I should've expected that no one would be willing to watch a 4 hour foreign art film for a forum competition.

[Dr. Ensatsu-ken]

I love good foreign films. I'm just not much of an art-film buff, TBH. That said, I would definitely watch the movie if I had the time and means to.

[Foggle]

Yeah. I don't mean to say that no one here would want to watch the movie at all - it's just hard to work a four hour film into anyone's schedule. Especially one that isn't super easy to obtain.

[Pharass]

Yeah. I don't mean to say that no one here would want to watch the movie at all - it's just hard to work a four hour film into anyone's schedule. Especially one that isn't super easy to obtain.

True, true.
Great film though. It does the whole stories-within-stories/1001 Nights thing very well.

Kungfu Hustle barely made it..but it made it!

Both matches like pretty good. I've seen half the movies in both. I'm pretty sure I nominated DM II and Starship troopers.
