WSo8M: (7) The Raod Warrior v. (10) Arthur

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Ricky Smith Division, Grand Lakes University regionals:

(7) The Road Warrior


(10) Arthur

[HahnSolo]

Little drunk men amuse me. Arthur.

[Fman99]

I voted for Arthur here. I liked Dudley Moore and Sir John.

Now, if you had put Thunderdome up here instead of Road Warrior, well, then, that'd be another thing entirely. Altogether.

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

Arthur. Though Liza Minelli scares me.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

The Road Warrior was like, a million ttimes better than Thunderdome.

Arthur has aged horribly, and Liza Minelli made me puke even when it was fresh.

[Willets Point]

Never saw either of these movies, never wanted to.

[soupcan]

I went with Mad Mel.

[Guest themetfairy]

Arthur hasn't aged well - social mores about drinking have changed since the film was made, and it just doesn't hold up well.

But I'm not into the Road Warrior films, and the dialogue in Arthur was great. So I'm going for the drunk in this round.

[Guest sharpie]

Didn't like either one but went with Road Warrior reluctantly. There have been several of these where both deserved a second round. This is the opposite.

[Guest Vince Coleman Firecracker]

Mad Max > Road Warrior > Arthur (but not by much)

[Theoldmole]

I voted for Arthur, then immediately had buyer's remorse. Is it too late to change?

[Guest sharpie]

This may be the first "upset" judging from the pre-set rankings.

[bmfc1]

It could be a reflection on Mel Gibson.

I put my vote on Road Warrior for you.

Arthur squeaks by, 13-12

[Vic Sage]

youse folks are out of your cotten pickin minds.

ARTHUR is a dated piece of sentimental claptrap. ROAD WARRIOR will be taught in film schools for generations, like PSYCHO. It is one of the top 5 movies, not only of the 80s, but of the last 30 years.

Well, 13 out of 24 people are out of their minds.

[Guest AG/DC]

It's all that cotton pickin'. Makes a man crazee.

Not cotton, "cotten". Cotten is cotton with mercury in it, which makes ya crazed.
