Meh. "The Asteroid Field" wasn't nominated. Leaves the door open a crack.
I was sad about this. C'mon Muck!
I originally had it in there, but the Duel music is from the best part of the OT - Luke and Vader's fight and the reveal of Vader as his father; coupled with some great Cloud City music as Lando stops being a ******.
ESB is going to win this contest regardless.

I dunno man. I've got four short friends, four badass warriors, and a sage old man who might say otherwise...

This reminds me of "The Rains of Castamere" a bit.
I have nver seen that movie, but just listening to the first 30 seconds of each clip while I pulled it off YouTube blew me away. If it wasn't in the group with Empire I would have voted for it.G Martin 87 said:

On a programming note, I'll be out most of the day, so Groups E and F probably won't get going until later afternoon/early evening.
Nice. I haven't voted yet but wanted to listen some before voting.
If you have an interest in racing history or Formula 1, it's a must see. Brhl and Hemsworth are spot-on as Lauda and Hunt. I hope we get a movie about the rivalry between Senna, Mansell, and Prost someday.
Rush is one of those movies that I went into with little to no expectations, and it surpassed them greatly.G Martin 87 said:

I have zero interest in any of those things, but I think I remember seeing the preview during one of my 3 non-kid movies I go to a year.G Martin 87 said:

So I was going to vote for The Good The Bad and The Ugly just for the sheer iconic factor, until I saw what the last option was. (I would've gone with The Throne Room for pick #3 for SW, but no harm done.)
Also, anyone else think Blade Runner's score sounds like music in a softcore porn? (Not in a bad way though.) In a way it takes me back to those early days of puberty with those late night movies on the Film Zone.

My thoughts exactly. Here I was getting ready to write Muck a note about how hard it was to not vote for Shawshank and how The Good the Bad & the Ugly was just "too iconic to eliminate", only to scroll a bit further to see STAR WARS!?! Talk about an SEC West level of top-tier talent.
Though you could probably pick almost any 3 tracks from A New Hope, I'd have nixed Muck's final 2 in favor of The Last Battle (attack on Death Star) and The Throne Room. Heck, I'd go with Leia's Theme next. What a great score! John is the greatest of all time.

Curse you, random.org.
yeah i was scrolling down and listening to some... going i like that.... oooh I like that too...
oh Star Wars is here... and we're done boys.
My inner nerdy child is going to beat me up over this especially since it is not going to make a bit of difference but I vote The Good, the Bad and the Ugly. It is just too iconic of a score not to get at least one vote.Zombie Jon Snow said:

I voted for Infinity War over Empire because I didn't want both Star Wars and Empire in the final (boring).

I don't think they will be - great scores yes - but there are many I like better despite the fact that those films rank in the top 5 for me like #1 and #5.
A brief look ahead at the groups to come and what I think you'll reaction will be.
Group G - pissed
Group H - somewhat pissed
Group I - really pissed
Group J - somewhat pissed
Group K - really pissed
Group L - not that pissed
Group M - pissed
Group N - not that pissed
Group O - pretty pissed
Group P - won't care
Group Q - super pissed
Group R - not that pissed
Group S - really pissed
Group T - pretty pissed
Group U - a little pissed
Group V - Like **** you Muck, I'm pissed
Group W - Not as pissed as in V
Group X - not that pissed
Group Y- not that pissed
Group Z - a little pissed
Group AA - Pretty damn pissed
Group G - pissed
Group H - somewhat pissed

We should have a vote at the end of the group stage for strongest foursome. I think the Star Wars, Shawshank, and The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly night clean up there.
Side note, did y'all know Hans Zimmer did The Holiday? All this soundtrack listening had my wife request that one next.

I didn't, but now that you mention ot it I can totally hear the Zimmer in there.
If it is going to be that bad, can you put together a losers bracket to match up?
The top 64 vote getters move on to the single-elimination round. If you'd like to do some sort of consolation bracket, I can send you the list of the other entries and how many votes they all got, but this is taking an enormous amount of time, doing two versions of it would not be feasible for me.zip90 said:

Even if an "obvious" one wins, I always enjoy the journey, the matchups along the way, the discussion, etc.
So thanks for putting in all this work, Muck.

Blade Runner over Khan?
Blade Runner score is iconic. It's always listed among the greatest of all time.

30% more votes; wasn't close. Going against Blade Runner proved to be WoK's Kobayashi Maru.Yoda said:

Some strong competitors in groups G and H, but I think this is going to be a massacre.
