Before people come in here and complain that WALL-E should have won, I advise you to actually go and watch the winner first if you haven't already done so.



I've watched both. Wall-E is better :evil:

I preferred Wall-E to The Wrestler but The Wrestler is still an incredible film.

The Wrestler vs Wall-E was genuinely one of the most difficult choices of this whole competition.

The Wrestler edged it.

You don't have to like wrestling to enjoy the film as the many people in the film thread who praised it will testify to. Stop being so narrow minded.

Wanna have a film night together? We can start with Quantum of Solace, followed by X2, finished with Zoolander. :wub:

Changing the subject ever so slightly.

Did we go back a bit too far with films from the 30's?

Still haven't seen Wall-e. Is it really worth a punt? Was over in .de at the time it was in cinemas and did not want to tolerate german dubbing.

It's really something special, probably only second to the original Toy Story in quality.

Maybe but there are a few films which everyone would have watched. 40's will also be a tough one for me, think I have seen more from the 30's then 40's

I came up with 7 movies from the 30's I had seen. Not bad. I knew more than I thought I did. I put in 3 I hadn't at the end which if not allowed in may jog people's memories... probably no need for 39 steps being there come to think of it.

Will look at the 40's in a bit so I'm a bit more prepared for the next vote/nomination/thing.

Cool.

50's is going to be an absolute nightmare to narrow down. Though a lot of my 50's and 60's nominations may end up being Disney movies... :oops:

I enjoy watching wrestling bit by bit and haven't seen any wrestling lately.

But the Wrestler is pretty disappointing. It's alright but full of cliches' really. I always knew what's going to happen, plot-wise, and I hate it when I'm right thus spoiling the film.
