CX, you have the wrong picture for The Host. There was an American movie by that name a few years ago, which is where I think that your picture might be from. I specifically nominated the 2006 Korean monster movie by the same name. Just wanted to clear that up with you.

I'll hold on the first for now, since I'll get to watch Birdman fairly soon.

Life is not about the second chances. It's about a little mouse and his voyage to an exciting new land. That, my friend, is what life is.

Sir, do you have any Warrants?
I got their first CD, but you can't have it, motherfucker!

haha. Well you know, I think these are all pretty awesome movies, but I really just wanted to make sure The Lion in Winter got some love. It's a great one.

Ah, my mistake. I was wondering why someone nominated that film while posting the picture.  :D

I was just messing around. I really should see TLIW, myself. I know that my dad really loves that movie.

Last match went exactly as I hoped it would. :)

I'll watch all the movies I can before I vote for this round.

The Third Man
Casino Royale
Training Day
Birdman - Haven't seen it, yet.

I'm going to hold off on voting in match 32 for now. The Lion in Winter is my number 1 though: Great performances, extremely quotable dialogue, political scheming and dysfunctional families. In short, Christmas as usual with the Plantagenets.
