    That’s like Citizen Kane compared to the other one. It’s possibly the worst movie I’ve ever had the misfortune to watch.

    I LOVE Rik Mayall in that. :o

    They're not in my top 5, but I reeeeeeeeeeeally enjoyed re-watching Oldboy, Shaolin Soccer and Kung Fu Hustle while thinking about my list :)

    Is light movie discussion allowed?

    I'd say you'd have to be careful - you're putting films into people's heads that might not have been there before, skews the list. You want the give that pop into their heads. Even if you talk about only crap films, one man's chunder is another man's cheddar.

    Those are quality movies though, reminded me of another I didn't put on mine. 5 is not enough!

    Good on you Quickbeam, appreciate the time and effort. One rule should be added and that is Shawshank Redemption can't win!

    In the interests of fairness, whatever number of 1s I need to reach 32 I'll randomise.

    The seeds will be the ones with the most votes. I'm going with 8 seeds. Again, if there's any kind of tie, I'll randomise which go in to the seeding.

    I will, however, be running each match in a random order, so you won't know which are the seeds, even if you can make a guess.

    Loving this! Seeing the entries has been fun.

    Most likely contest starting Saturday afternoon, as there'll be some drinks had on Friday so I won't be around to run :)

    No excuse QB, a drunk reveal would be more fun.

    Studies have shown that that is when people are most honest.
