And Scott Pilgrim doesn't HAVE poor cinematography. Also, if the shots created are awful enough, it'll show through beyond the editing.

Post-production is a vital stage of filmmaking. As vital as writing.

LOL

Any person with any hint of an idea of filmmaking would agree. You're trying to pass off as a film snob, but you're just wildly pretentious.

Although, I do find it disheartening that so many people keep hoping that being illiterate will some day count as an asset.

I'm sorry. I've considered minoring in film because of how much I love my film class. I've learned shit about film that is basic stuff. That you seem to disregard as "illiteracy." It's basic essentials to making great films, but you disregard them as irrelevant garbage that's there for dumb and uncultured masses and that's an absolutely disgusting approach.

It's especially weird, since editing and post production are one of the things that set movies apart from just being plays....

Hey Vash, you still haven't provided any other examples of good Edgar Wright movies.

Isn't this matchup over now?

Someone previously mentioned The Cornetto Trilogy of Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz and The World's End, though the final installment was a bit lacking.

I said the Cornetto Trilogy, and said Edgar Wright hadn't made any other good movies. Vash said he's made plenty more, and I'm now waiting for examples.

Someone switch the phase. I 'm too busy to

Group A is tied at 9 for both Apollo 13 and Ben Hur.

Group A next round:
8 - Citizen Kane vs 25 - Network

Group B. Regretfully, Big Trouble in Little China beats Scott Pilgrim 10-8

Next round:
8 - Casablanca vs 25 - Naked Gun

Group C has V for Vendetta winning out pretty easily.

Next round:
8 - Das Boot vs 25 - Ice Cold in Alex

Group D has a close comeback with 2001 at 11-8 over Mad Max

Next round:
8 - the Matrix vs 25 - Interstellar

##VOTE Citizen Kane because I'm not a madman.
##VOTE Casablanca. I nominated it so there's that.
##VOTE The Matrix. Christopher Nolan peaked with Inception.

Also if someone could break the tie in group A that'd be nice. I didn't care enough about the round to vote ;)

Oh god your formatting is terrible. Also ben hur moves on. GM breaks ties

##Vote Network
##Vote Naked Gun
##Vote Das Boot
##Vote The Matrix

I'm using my phone. Also, V for Vendetta won by 5 votes in case anyone was curious.

GM breaks ties Wtf? ##VOTE Apollo 13

Yes....

GM also makes the rules

GM still hasn't voted for the current rounds.

As the adjudicator of the previous round, I give myself the right to make a ruling in this case.

So, let's look at a couple facts. Vash was one of the 9 original voters for Ben Hur, while ghug had yet to vote for the round. It also states nowhere that GM's vote breaks ties except where Vash claimed to have that authority just now. Vash using his vote as a regular vote means that in terms of voting he plays more of the role of a regular pariticipant than a tiebreaking GM. As the previous adjudicator, my ruling is that Apollo 13 moves on 10-9.

Yeah...that's not how this works tr

The rules don't state that's not how it works. If we all have the right to adjudicate, then that's absolutely how that works.

You don't have that authority vested in you by the rules of the tournament. Learn your constitution, tyrant.

#KeepingTyrantsInCheck

I second Prado's decision as someone who thinks Apollo 13 should win.

Also, if ghug hadn't voted yet, there's no reason not to accept his vote.

GM NOTE: The GM and solely the GM has the authority to change rules. This seems to make sense as I organized the tournament and otherwise any tom dick and harry can change them.

GM NOTE: GM Breaks ties, my apologies for not mentioning this explicitly, I thought I put that in the rules and it's intuitive given that when the phase ends, voting on it also ends so you need a metric to adjudicate at that time.
