Raging Bull added to start

T is such a frustrating letter. There must be 15-20 films which I could've nominated. No clear winner either, although The Thing is garnering a lot of votes at the moment.

So then.

Terminator 2 better than Terminator and Scarface better than Starshoop Troopers.

Discuss.

:lol:

Wrongo on both counts as far as I'm concerned.

Scarface is miles better than Starship Troopers

If you're talking about the original, then yes. The Brian De Palma one is a travesty, I can't watch it anymore. And I used to like it, which is the most shameful part. :fp:

Starship Troopers is better because I say so.

I will do a Terminator 1 vs Terminator 2 Faceoff:

Science Fictionyness - Terminator wins
Comedy - Terminator 2 wins
Action - Terminator 2 wins
Suspense - Terminator wins
Quotability - Terminator 2 wins
Storyline - Terminator wins
Cinematic Influence - Terminator wins

Seems it's a win for Terminator, just.

That's a fair depiction. They really are different films.

From what I remember I liked the first Terminator the most. But I really need to see them both again.

Also the lack of anyone else nominating The Truman Show is upsetting.

Its ok film but hardly a great

LOL

He's right though, Truman Show is a classic, far superior to Shawshank. Even though I didn;t vote for Truman Show, I still think it's superb.

I agree about it being a classic, in fact it's quite underrated. It's pretty much the only Jim Carrey film I like.

Another 'yay!' for The Truman Show here, I love that film.
