First tell me what you're contesting. Are you saying it's without merit as a sci fi?

I have my problems with Event Horizon and it wouldn't be one of my favorite Sci-fi films, but it deserves to be in this competition. It doesn't deserve to win it, but it earned its spot.

It certainly has merit as sic-fi, thought I see it as more horror. I just did not see it as garnering any votes, especially more than The Time Machine. No big outrage.

I laughed all the way through Event Horizon. The only thing funnier than the idea it should scare me (granted, I was already over 30) was the idea that it's supposed to make sense!

Need more Fire in the Sky votes :excited:

bump

This poll is closing tomorrow!!

This is closing tonight, need at least one more Fire in the Sky vote to break the tie! :panic:

No one else has seen (or liked) Another Earth? :cry:

I haven't seen it, but that is a very interesting poster. Let me add it to my queue.

I really think you'd like it, feev.

It's a good movie, but one of the best of all time?

I only heard mixed to bad things about it. Really fizzled my interest.

HUGE difference there. :lol:

I can't believe that with a few hours to go in this poll, Fire in the Sky will be eliminated in favor of Flight of the Navigator :cry:

I second and third that. One of the worst films I've seen in a while. Interesting idea, poor execution.

OK, add another vote for Fire. I voted only 4 times in this bracket so a late vote is better than no vote.

Tiebreak time!

The following films will advance

Close Encounters of the Third Kind
Event Horizon
X-Men : Days of Future Past
Sunshine
The Time Machine

Tie breaker
Flight of the Navigator
Fire In The Sky

You're not counting WeDealInLead's vote?

Note
Guys if you want to add or subtract a vote after you have already cast your votes please send me a private message, sometimes I don't have a chance to read every single response in the threads, especially when they're not addressed to me.

Thanks.
