The losers bracket Round 2B will probably have to wait until tomorrow - it takes a good hour to put this together and I have stuff I need to get done today.

Some odd combinations. Airplane! and Fight Club are apples and oranges.

Had fun voting though. Interested to see the results.

Unforgiven vs. In Bruges was a tough choice.

I assume we’re supposed to vote for the pictures we’d prefer to see out of each pair.

In some cases I couldn’t vote at all because I’d not seen either. In others, I knew them both but had no real preference.

When there was no clear-cut preference, I usually voted for the one I’d seen less often and would like to see again to make up for it..
