O.k.

I filled out the round with some suggestions from some friends:
Event Horizon
It
Alien

I think it's full and ready to go.

If you see any ommissions or mistakes let me know.

Dude, no seeding? I just think it's funner with that.

Silent 05-24-2005 08:46 AM

I could do seeding.

Where most movies were nominated only once I made sure nobodies movies were competeing against each other, but that was it.

Now, if people wanted to vote for their favorites on the list it would be easier to re-arrange....

glatt 05-24-2005 09:14 AM

My input, to help with the ranking, in order of my favorite/scariest first.

Silence of the Lambs
The Exorcist
Seven
The Shining
Alien
Aliens
Sixth Sense
Angel Heart
Psycho
American Werewolfe in London

It's OK if you just seed them yourself. The actual NCAA basketball seeding is done by committee and usually subject of much debate.

It feels wrong to seed movies I've never seen...

I could probably seed movies that have been nominated once against ones that have more then one vote. There do seem to be some favorites.

Uh ... Torgo isn't a movie. He's a character in Manos, Hands of Fate.

And you might want to clarify that The Mummy is the one made in 1932, and Dracula has a different version every couple of years (My fav is the 1931, but I know some folks liked one or more of the others). Ditto for Frankenstein (1931).

FWIW ... I think that the seedings are artificial in this context ... when there's a lot of duplication, yeah, it's cool to know what leads going in, but it doesn't really have a lot of meaning. I think that you did a great job on the matchups!

If you can get the top four close to right, the rest doesn't matter as much.

See. There's what I know. :biggrindu

That means we have an open slot.
Any suggestions?

I'll make the notes.

I''ll rework the orders when I have a minute and try and keep four front runners in each field.

Undertoad 05-24-2005 10:22 AM

After you do that, I'll put in the seed numbering. That could have been automated better...

:smack:

How could I have forgotten??

Phantasm

And Poltergeist. I don't think anyone suggested that ... oh, somebody else pick, okay??

(oh, and clarify year of release on Night of the Living Dead)

Was I correct in noting that Amityville Horror 2 was listed, but not Amityville Horror??

I'll make the changes.

Yup. Nobody nominated the original and imho, #2 was way better then #1.

Silent 05-24-2005 07:32 PM

Done (again), I think.

Mistakes anyone?
