Three movies have multiple scenes in the top 20:

Pulp Fiction (2 scenes)
Back to the Future (2 scenes)
Raiders of the Lost Ark (2 scenes)

A pair of Star Wars movies also each placed one scene, giving that franchise 2 scenes.

How did 3 of the 4 wild cards wind up in the first heat? I thought for a second that I had clicked the wild card thread.

Oh, I didn't even notice that. It was a random selection anomaly.

I guess we're figuring out which three scenes were the wild cards.

Well, looks like the wild cards got outmatched in this heat. Saving Private Ryan and Pulp fiction are running away with this one. I haven't paid attention to it until now, but have any of the wild cards been surviving the next round Rain Man?

Nm. I did the research. Gun to a knife fight survived round 2 as a wild card and is still alive and Caddyshack survived rounds 3 and 4 as a wild card but looks to be dying here. Didn't look at round one.

Yeah, there are some wild cards that have done well. For that matter, the Saving Private Ryan scene was a Round One wildcard, when it lost a close matchup against one of the Pulp Fiction threads. Several others have survived well, but as the funnel keeps narrowing it's harder and harder to survive if you haven't been outright winning your heats.

4-5 of my all time favorite scenes are going to all end up in one heat and its going to be extremely hard to choose. It has happened to a degree but not to the intensity that is about to happen.

In a bit of a beatdown, Pulp Fiction and Saving Private Ryan move on to Round 6 and the top ten.
