And here is the bracket:

Anyway time to start the actual tournament here’s the rules:

Each round we will do either 2 or 4 matchups, each from a different group.

Everyone will be free to vote for one of the two movies in each matchup. You may switch your vote but can not vote twice for the same film. Obviously you are also allowed to discuss and make your case for why the film you chose is better.

Voting will be done in the same format for nominations, with double octothorpes (ex. ##VOTE Jack and Jill)

Each matchup will take 48 Hours and will adjudicate at 6:30 PM EST. This is subject to change. However, if I am not around the phase still ends at 6:30 EST. Hopefully someone like Flum or the participants will respect this.

After the matchups are done I will move onto a new one immediately. We will be moving down the bracket in each group so you can do this on your own if need be.

If you have any question feel free to ##CallGM.

Also, I put a lot of time and effort into making this tournament run and organizing it, so please try not to troll it, it’s kind of disrespectful.

With that being said our first matchups are:

IN GROUP A: 1. THE GODFATHER vs. 32. O BROTHER WHERE ART THOU
IN GROUP B: 1. MONTY PYTHON AND THE HOLY GRAIL vs. 32. LIBERTY
IN GROUP C: 1. RUBBER vs 32. THE MISSION
IN GROUP D: 1. RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK vs. 32. THE FIFTH ELEMENT

MATCHUPS BEGIN NOW! AND WILL END AT 6:30 PM EST on SUNDAY APRIL 30th!

GOOD LUCK TO ALL FILMS!
