> [@ChockFullOfHeadyGoodness](#): > > 2 - I’m sure the Star Wars prequels will get the most entries when combined, but which one of the 3 will be the single winner? Looks like Phantom Menace is the clear front-runner so far. I almost put that down, but her role was actually very small in that one, and grew larger with the next two, so I landed on Revenge of the Sith. That’s what I get for thinking too much! ---

It looks like I meant to say Bridget Jones’s Diary for #1 and The Crying Game for #9. And possibly Gangs of New York for #7, depending on how the last several responses come in. Thanks. ---
