The Greatest Movie Franchises of All Time - Elite 8

Links to preceding threads:


You can view the entire tournament bracket here as we go along, but here's the current state:



Please vote for the franchise in each pair that you feel is most deserving of being in consideration for the Greatest Movie Franchise of All Time. I'll put one of these up every day or two as we go along. So vote!

Possible Concerns and Responses:
  1. A franchise I like isn't on the list! Too bad. Nominations are closed. This is just a fun offseason diversion, but feel free to complain in the thread if it will make you feel better.
  2. There's something on the list that I don't even think is a franchise! Don't vote for it.
  3. There's something on the list that I don't recognize. Yeah, there are a few that I don't recognize either. If you feel generous, look it up and determine if you think it's worthy. Or just don't vote for it. Either option is allowed.
  4. The seeding seems weird (or there's something I have no idea how it got in there). The seeding is based on total estimated tickets from Box Office Mojo, but some older franchises were randomly seeded since we don't have any data available about their ticket sales. Again, if you don't feel something is deserving, don't vote for it!

The only MCU character who holds a candle to Indy is Iron Man, and the sequels were mediocre at best.

This is an argument for quality over quantity.

Indy 4 is a goddamn travesty. I'd take IM2 or 3 over that trash.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with Temple of Doom compared to trash like Iron Man 3.

Iron Man 3 makes Doom look like The Godfather.

Here's the problem, as I previously posted. I'll give you the original Raiders as the best of the lot -- though honestly Infinity War/Endgame is going to end that most likely, given the initial reviews -- but then I'll match your Indy III with Ragnarok and from there it's all downhill for you. No movie in the MCU is as bad as 4. Temple MIGHT beat a movie or two -- Iron Man 3 being the lead candidate, but then the MCU has like 14 other movies or whatever left.

You might have Wilt Chamberlain, but I've got ****ing Bill Russell and a ****ton of other guys who trounce your guys. I'm winning this thing.

That's not fair, though. MCU gets more shots at the dartboard.

Percentage wise, Indy wins.

Better series, in total, is all it is.

Look, I LOVE the Indiana Jones series, but if you're telling me i can take ONE movie series to a desolate island where all I'll have for entertainment are those DVDs, then it's not even close. Maybe Indy 1 is better than any of them, but I've got near-the-same quality and WAAAY more very high level quantity.

Hell, I like Godfather 1 better than Raiders and 2 probably about as much as Indy III, but I'd put the MCU ahead of them also.

Sorry Wilt...

MCU movies all have the same plotline though.

Booooring.
