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.

The much ballyhooed Heat 100 is kind of a bust in my opinion. It's like Al Capone's vault. My votes:

#1 - The Road to Perdition. It's kind of a boring scene, but it least it's not irritating.

#2 - Rounders. Who in the world enjoys watching a poker game? I'd rather watch a hobo eating potato chips.

#3 - I Love You, Man. What? What is this scene? This scene is openly irritating. I want to slap the daylights out of everyone involved in the making of this scene, from the actors all the way down to the on-set caterer.

I wish. This heat is a bomb for me. It's sad after seeing strong candidates hit the tripwire on the past two heats.

Heat 100 is not as epic as I thought it would be.

I would describe it as path-epic.

I've only watched RTP, so that's what I went with... its an underrated flick IMO and you don't usually see Hanks cast against type like that, not a bad movie at all.

Its GOTTA be better than the other two, anyway.

Rounders is a great movie and that scene should contend.

Rounders ups the ante to the second round.

Used to blast this so all of Kirksville heard it.


Neil's mind fascinates me, does he live his life as a human metronome?

To have a sense of rhythm so innate, mindboggling.

Sounds better on big speakers
