Movies and TV SceneItAll Tournament: Round 3, Heat 5

**Rain Man** · 06-30-2014, 05:46 PM

Changing things up a little in Round 3. I will present five scenes, and you will pick your TWO favorite scenes. The top two vote-getters will advance to Round 4, and others will have a chance at a wildcard spot.

You people are failing at your inB4's this week.

**Rausch** · 06-30-2014, 05:50 PM

Tombstone or death.

The Latin duel might be the best western scene ever...

**Rain Man** · 06-30-2014, 05:51 PM

A solid heat, but I don't think we have any home runs in here. Maybe one. My votes:

#1 - The Empire Strikes Back. This one could go far. It's not in my top ten, but it's really solid.

#2 - The Sandlot. This one keeps drawing heats that aren't that tough. Oh, well. I'll vote for it again.

#3 - Tombstone. It's a well-done scene, and colorful. It's neck and neck with my #2.

#4 - Rounders. Eh, it's okay, I guess. Nothing really against it.

#5 - The Princess Bride. Man, that little bald guy annoys me.

Empire and Tombstone.

Interesting that four of the five scenes involve showdowns of some sort.

ThaVirus · 06-30-2014, 07:58 PM

That Tombstone scene is too legit. I've never seen most of the flicks in this tourney and so I usually just vote for what I know. For some reason, I randomly watched that Tombstone scene back in Round 1, although I had never seen the flick, and liked it so much I made it a point to watch the movie.

So I'll be voting for that one and probably Star Wars but maybe Sandlot. I'll decide and then cast that second vote.

Empire is routinely in top 10 movie moments of all-time.....one of the most shocking moments in cinema history.

Love the wendy scene......but gotta go with Rounders for my 2nd pick.

and ThaVirus admits what I've suspected all along. Lots of folks aren't even watching the scenes.

You had to have guessed that would be the case.

The vast majority of these scenes are only meaningful in the context of the movie.

Yeah, but you watched the Ferris Bueller Seurat scene, right? Please tell me you watched the Ferris Bueller Seurat scene.

**Rain Man** · 07-01-2014, 05:03 PM

Well, this one went about like I expected. The Empire Strikes Back and Tombstone advance.
