The rules:

In Round 1, I'm going to put up three randomly selected scenes from the nomination thread.

You'll vote for your ONE favorite scene among the three. The key here is FAVORITE. We're not talking about the 'best' or 'most powerful' or 'most meaningful'. We're talking about the scene that you most enjoy watching, however you define that.

The winners will move on. I'll also take the 10 highest-scoring second-place scenes and they'll advance as wild cards.

Some of our nominations did not include clips. This will be noted. If you find a clip, please post it and let me know so I can update it if it moves on.

My votes:

#1 - Terminator 2. That's a really good scene. It's sci fi, it's contemporary, it's funny, and it really shows you who the Terminator 2 is.

#2 - Searching for Bobby Fischer. I like it. It kept me engaged.

#3 - Dr. Strangelove. I think I'm the only person on earth who's not a fan of this film. The scene is certainly iconic, but it's not my favorite scene in this group by a wide margin.

Terminator for general awesomeness. T2's truck-chase scene was way better than T1's which is up in another poll.

I'm terribly vexed, excellent scenes from both Strangelove and T2.

It was indeed a great move. It put the other kid in check and cost him his queen.

#3 - Dr. Strangelove. I think I'm the only person on earth who's not a fan of this film.

I hated that movie. I thought I was the only one. Thank you for giving me hope, Rain Man.

T2 takes the win here, and I approve.

I feel somewhat ashamed going against a true classic like Strangelove - I'm not a smart man - but staying true to my roots it had to be T2.

Haven't seen Bobby Fisher movie in years. I remember it being quite excellent.

Searching for Bobby Fischer is the best chess movie ever made.
