2021-08-13 15:21:22 +0000 UTCHi Cassie, hi guys. Sorry, I new to this - how do I vote? The Departed is one of Top 3 all-time fave movies!
Matthew Lyttle
2021-08-13 13:30:18 +0000 UTCThese were nominated by YouTube subscribers.

2021-08-13 03:46:50 +0000 UTCYeah I’ve been busy reading the patreon’s comments I’m trying my best to vote the man who started the Suspense genre Mr. Hitchcock himself

2021-08-13 03:06:44 +0000 UTCPatrick - I think it must have been frustration to watch. But I heard the series finale got record ratings for the time. I don't recall much about the series. It ran in the mid 1960's when I was in elementary school. I used to love it when my grandfather babysat me - he'd let me stay up an extra half hour to watch "The Honeymooners."
Charles Mills
2021-08-13 02:54:43 +0000 UTCI recall some bits of "The Zodiac Killer" (1971) but not the newer movie.
Charles Mills
2021-08-13 02:41:46 +0000 UTCLove the Fugitive so much. Tommy Lee Jones character had a massive impact on me as a child lol. Also loved the dynamics of his team and how they actually seemed like a tight knit group of family/friends, and not a bland group of TV cops.
2021-08-13 02:25:59 +0000 UTCMan, we're riding on a knife's edge here... I'm either going to be ecstatic about the winners or have absolutely no interest. For whatever reason, most of the movies in the main bracket that made it this far I have very strong, contrarian opinions of. Fingers crossed for Il Monstro.

2021-08-13 01:26:49 +0000 UTCI haven't heard much about the original tv series but i do remember they tried to reboot the series again years ago.
Patrick Toscano
2021-08-13 01:15:36 +0000 UTCTHE FLY is straight up Sci-Fi body Horror and I don't know why Patreons think it just a thriller.
Jack the Narrator
2021-08-13 01:01:23 +0000 UTCI vaguely recall the TV series.
Charles Mills
2021-08-12 22:39:17 +0000 UTCCassie, yes. It's about the Zodiac killer.
Mr. Writhms
2021-08-12 21:20:27 +0000 UTCis it about the zodiac killer?
Cassie
2021-08-12 21:10:33 +0000 UTCOne of mine as well.
Patrick Toscano
2021-08-12 20:11:54 +0000 UTCYes. One of my favourite movies. Still keeping my fingers crossed it will sneak out a win.
Björn Von Knorring
2021-08-12 19:04:32 +0000 UTCThe Game deserved a lot better IMO.
Alyssa Anderson
2021-08-12 18:53:14 +0000 UTCone of my favorite films!
Logan Sandoval
2021-08-12 17:44:57 +0000 UTCKurosawa is fantastic. High and Low being one of my favorite non samurai films from him. I think Seven Samurai, Rashomon and throne of blood would all be good starters.
Bret
2021-08-12 17:19:33 +0000 UTCFingers crossed that the fugitive gets a viewing. I rarely hear people talk about it.

Lemuel Daher
2021-08-12 16:39:32 +0000 UTCThe entire samurai/western trope films are amazing. But not really 'entry-level' film studies? I do home she watches them, though, they are almost perfect films... Rashomon is basically a blueprint for so many films made after it. Seven Samurai (and the Magnificent 7) is a story trope used over and over (see The Mandalorian episode 4, SE01 for a current example) and seeing it's masterful depiction by Kurosawa is just perfection.

2021-08-12 13:38:55 +0000 UTCOmg, you should watch some of these!
Jon Johns
2021-08-12 13:33:26 +0000 UTCIf you ever get around to older foreign films, I'd love to see you react to some of the Kurosawa pictures. "Seven Samurai" is one of my favorite movies ever. On the long side, so it might need to be a two-part situation (has an intermission, so there's a natural break if you do this), but it's worth it. "Yojimbo" is also a great one.

2021-08-12 12:58:16 +0000 UTCNo Cassie, Fargo vs Sicario is NOT better than Fargo vs No Country! sadness intensifies
Dirk Rheeder
2021-08-12 10:47:44 +0000 UTCBrian De Palma didn't make the cut? (pun intended) "Dress To Kill" (1980) "Blow Out" (1981) "Body Double" (1984)
Mr. Writhms
2021-08-12 09:06:22 +0000 UTChalf I never heard of so voted for only what I knew, then never heard of momento or zodiac so didn't vote
