    If doing a Movie Walrus has taught me anything is how drastically film opinions differ. This will be an interesting tournament.

    Totally agree, there has been very little duplication in noms here compared to any other contest I ran, though that could be down to the amount of options available I suppose.

    We end discovering that we each have our own unique taste in films with zero overlap :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,155 ✭✭✭Irish Aris


    Definitive yes for The Princess Bride.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,666 ✭✭✭SineadSpears


    Haven't seen the movie. Got half way through the trailer & gave up. think that's a sign that I won't be watching the full movie :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,943 ✭✭✭✭the purple tin


    No. The swordfight at the end was far better.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,078 ✭✭✭bogman_bass


    Big yes to the princess bride


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 87,543 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1

    Not capturing my attention so a no from me.

    The Face the Boardsies round is just for the 50 additional scenes from Kolido right?

    No, all nominations so far are in this round, I rand every one and top of the list gets picked. It is really just a bit of fun and a way to keep interest going until we start proper.


    Day 2 starting shortly

    Face the Boardsies - Day 2

    Yes or no to Round 1

    Mrs. Doubtfire - You Look Like a Lady



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,511 ✭✭✭Purgative


    No sorry - Mrs Doubtfire just not my thing


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,617 ✭✭✭Mehaffey1


    Ah go on then, Mrs. Doubtfire is a great movie, very much of its time. Love the horror revamp trailers there is of it on YouTube too


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,164 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    Feels like I'm rejecting everything but it's a no from me Bob.

    I don't find Mrs Doubtfire funny in all honesty.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,712 ✭✭✭Sawduck


    No

    Yes - love Mrs Doubtfire


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,943 ✭✭✭✭the purple tin


    Yay. 'broke my bag, the bastard' :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,503 ✭✭✭✭Also Starring LeVar Burton


    No. Doesn't stand out to me as a particularly great movie scene. Haven't seen the film since I was kid, and watching that seen doesn't do anything to make me want to revisit it.


  • Posts: 18,749 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    No.
    Just doesn't seem like a great scene to me?

    Why the question mark? Are you not confident in your opinion that it doesn't seem like a great scene? It's a perfectly valid opinion, don't question it.

    Police Academy - Self Defence Class



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,617 ✭✭✭Mehaffey1


    Let's go with YES, pretty funny scene and Police Academy deserves it


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 52,164 Mod ✭✭✭✭Necro


    I'll give it a yes. Funny scene from a funny movie. Won't win but best so far anyways.


  • Posts: 18,749 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Ah yeah, why not. Just like real life

    Yep this. Its the sort of film I'd distract myself with on a long flight and not be bothered if I caught all or some of it and then not give it a second thought.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 680 ✭✭✭redmgar


    The "What's in the box?" scene from Seven


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,503 ✭✭✭✭Also Starring LeVar Burton


    No for Police Academy

    This is "Greatest Movie Scene" not "Scene That Was Mildly Humorous Thirty Odd Years Ago But Otherwise Forgettable"

    Hey, nominations are still opened, please PM me if you want to include any. I will be running a tournament in the next few weeks with all the scenes nominated.

    Right now I'm just posting random nominated scenes and folk are deciding if it will get a bye into round 1 or will go through a qualifying round.

    I know, it's all very geeky, but it's fun :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,943 ✭✭✭✭the purple tin


    Yes for Police Academy. Funny scene :D
    And Callaghan was a real knockout :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,712 ✭✭✭Sawduck


    No, it's OK but I wouldn't consider it among the best scenes


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 87,543 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,666 ✭✭✭SineadSpears
