There are many fewer pairs in this matchup that i can vote in than in the other.

That makes sense. Many of these lost the first poll because not everybody had seen or heard of them.

Yep. In this poll I’d seen both films in maybe 12 cases. In several of those cases I couldn’t remember the films well enough to choose. In several more the films were too close to call (and not strong enough contenders to think about at length).

The criteria are fairly subjective for everyone, but my own guideline with 2 films I haven’t seen is simply, which one would I rather see (and my watchlist has grown as a result). A lot of the ones I haven’t seen, I have at least heard of and there is usually a reason I haven’t seen it (e.g. Return of the Living Dead).

Mildred Pierce’s 22% is pretty impressive against Star Wars.

I remain heartbroken that _Old Henry_ isn’t doing better. I suspect not many have seen it. It is to me one of the best Westerns ever made.

A 64 match post takes about 90 minutes between building the polls and proofreading.

None in this poll, and only one in round 2A.

I’d never even heard of it.

Or in a few cases, voting against the one I don’t want to see.

_Old Henry_ got my vote in the first round (going against a well known film I didn’t care for), but not in this round. Based on my one watching it had more integrity than 97% of westerns, but the first 2/3s were slow, and I thought Henry did some disturbingly dumb stuff.

He moseyed around his porch when there could have been riflemen in the hills, and the big face-off seemed ill-advised. The last third had some Hollywood superhero vibes.

Anyone opposed to closing the polls at 12 Noon Eastern time today?
