Sci-Fi Bracket Final 4
Added 2021-07-31 22:53:09 +0000 UTCHey hey!! In order to finish the tournament by the end of the month, voting is open now until midnight MST! I will watch both winners of these two matchups, but we will vote on the final to see which I watch first. I have loved seeing the comments, discussion and passion for these movies and can’t wait to see what wins. Thank you to those who made some suggestions how we could tweak it a bit next time.
Should we do another bracket for another genre?
Thanks so much!

2021-08-14 03:59:56 +0000 UTCI waited until I was 35 to watch it because of what I had heard about it , and I actually regret not seeing it sooner. I love the themes, the acting ( I mean it has the absolutely fantastic Max Von Sydow in it) all around , especially Linda Blair. Great soundtrack " Tubular Bells" in completion is wonderful. It is truly a Great movie, and Horrifying!

2021-08-03 02:25:26 +0000 UTC@Damien, I saw the cleaned up tv version of The Exorcist when I was in high school and it scared the life out of me. I remember not being able to sleep because I was so terrified. And that was the edited for tv version!

2021-08-02 21:32:04 +0000 UTCI mean. I think John Wick is cool, But it's a bit of vilonce porn. It's a kill a minute. Terminator is way less killing. I think Terminator falls into the Jurassic Park camp. It's more suspenseful. We'll see how she reacts. Anyway, it's always fun to watch react.

2021-08-02 20:06:46 +0000 UTCYeah but she didn't like john wick.

2021-08-02 18:58:49 +0000 UTCIt has a poignant love story so I think she will like it. Plus the plot line is very good.
Catherine LW
2021-08-02 18:25:31 +0000 UTCI think CAssie will surprise you. She liked "Snatch". So when Cassie gets it, she gets it for sure. I think she will like Terminator. Especially Terminator 2

2021-08-02 16:45:32 +0000 UTCSo many classic movie casualties in this poll tournament. At 10 movies that didn't get past the 2nd round that are my favs.
KevG
2021-08-02 16:44:22 +0000 UTCShe said she is not ready for it, not that she would never see it. Two different things, she said maybe wait until she is more used to the horror genre. Plus she is trying to open her eyes to the classics. I am willing to wait until she is more comfortable , but is he never watches it, and I do not know if you have ever seen it, it will be a shame! It is actually much deeper than most people give it credit for, it is actually great. Is it Scary? Yes! Is it more, absolutely. One of the best movie critics out there Mark Kermode calls it the best movie ever made! I disagree with that, but it is amazing.

2021-08-02 13:00:08 +0000 UTCTerminator? She's gonna hate that movie.
Menno
2021-08-02 09:17:05 +0000 UTC"Minority Report" surpasses most of the sci-fi in this contest-- in story, direction, pace, and acting in my opinion. Yet it didn't make it passed the first round? In fact "Blade Runner" and "Minority Report" are based on stories by the same author! *Hands covering face dramatically* Whyyyyyyy?! 😭 Too many great movie casualties. 😔

2021-08-02 07:26:46 +0000 UTCBlade Runner is slower for sure. More art than thrill maybe. Hopefully she's intrigued enough for the sequel which in many ways is superior.
2021-08-02 02:24:15 +0000 UTCLooks like Terminator is going to get the win. I thought for sure Bladerunner would walk away with it. You'll probably like Terminator more than Bladerunner anyway. It's faster paced and is a lot easier to follow. Bladerunner can kind of drag.

2021-08-02 00:33:16 +0000 UTCFor the Drama genre, I recommend.. - The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
Morning Featherheart
2021-08-01 21:51:37 +0000 UTCNow that it is between Terminator and Blade Runner. It will be time to watch T2 and especially Blade Runner 2049.
Damien beatty
2021-08-01 14:27:00 +0000 UTCEhh, not a huge Blade Runner fan, I figured it would give Predator a problem getting to the finals. Almost called it with that and Terminator, still surprised Total Recall didn’t make the contest.

2021-08-01 13:11:15 +0000 UTCEven though Close Encounters lost, I still highly recommend you put it on the list of things to watch. I believe this is definitely your kind of movie, or at least one you would enjoy. Once Terminator wins, which it will inevitably do, please try to watch Terminator 2. It achieved one of the most difficult feats, in which the squeal was better than the original. Very few franchises pull this off. But then stop, the rest don't exist!

2021-08-01 09:34:53 +0000 UTCShe has said she is not watching that. It would also be nice to have a sane Cassie in the future😊
Björn Von Knorring
2021-08-01 09:16:50 +0000 UTCThe suspense is terrible. I hope it'll last.
Greg McDaniel
2021-08-01 07:32:39 +0000 UTCI can recommend a couple of channels if you're interested in this particular movie. Cassie is working her way up for this one, so it might take some time.
David Lengyel
2021-08-01 04:47:05 +0000 UTCNo way she needs to see The Exorcist thou I understand your point
Robert Holmes
2021-08-01 04:44:52 +0000 UTCThis process is way too long.
chicks dig me
2021-08-01 04:14:26 +0000 UTCCassie is not into demonic films.
Catherine LW
2021-08-01 03:45:21 +0000 UTCOff topic, but I noticed none of the people I am subscribed to for movie reactions has done a full reaction for "The Exorcist". It's as-if the first one who does the reaction will become a pioneer in my circles, a legend among peers.I mean, yeah, it's downright scary, but it's one of those movies that you appreciate after the movie is over.
