SceneItAll Tournament: Round 1, Heat 130

[Rain Man]

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.

I'm inb4

I'm inb4


Hold on. I need to confirm.

[Rain Man]

Yes, yes, it does appear that you were inb4.

[Rain Man]

My votes in a relatively easy heat:

#1 - Apollo 13. That's a great scene. I want to be in that scene.

#2 - Planet of the Apes. I like the concept. Really like the concept. But it always seemed a little overacted to me.

#3 - Tenacious D. I would like to remove that scene from my memory. Scenes like this should not exist.

[TimBone]

A couple of things. I agree with your assessment of both Apollo 13 and Planet of the apes.

I will be voting for Apollo 13.

However, you are letting your hatred for Jack Black affect your voting now. I've never seen Tenacious D, but that scene wasn't all that bad. Definitely not bad enough to be stricken from memory.

And when I tell you that I'm inb4, you can rest assured that I'm inb4.

Good job on the Apollo 13 vote.

As far as Tenacious D, I'll acknowledge that penises have a lot of uses, and some of them are quite wonderful. However, a penis should never be used as a movie prop.

That's part of the charm.

And another Tenacious D? :facepalm:

Meh. The end of the Apes movie where they take over is better. Ceasar's(?) speech.

Holy crap. How many Tenacious D scenes were nominated?

[Rain Man]

Holy crap. How many Tenacious D scenes were nominated?

The movie was apparently quite meaningful to one or more nominators.

On that note, I really should have nominated more scenes from Ferris Bueller's Day Off.

[Rain Man]

Apollo 13 cobbles together the win. Good job, chiefsplanet.
