Best Movie Scene Tournament: Round 2 - Group 4 of 32

During the second round of The Best Movie Scene Tournament, please vote for up to four movie scenes you would like to move onto the next round. The top four movie scenes will be moving on. Keep in mind that the percentage of the vote a given movie scene receives will determine its standing going forward.

IMPORTANT! Please do not simply vote on name recognition (or lack thereof) alone. Please do watch each nomination and then make your choice. Even if you think you know a movie scene well, it's still worth watching for a refresher.

Please remember that his tournament is for Best Scene, not Best Movie.
It's important to therefore judge each nomination on its individual merits and NOT by the entire movie.

The poll will run for seven days. Discussion is greatly encouraged!

The nominees are:


Showdown at the House of Blue Leaves - Kill Bill Vol. 1 (2003)

Damn. The lunch debate is such a great scene. I just saw Jurassic Park at the drive-in last weekend and this scene is always the one I look forward to them most.

The lunch debate contains essentially everything Crichton wanted to convey with this story from a thematic standpoint. It really is the crux on which the entire franchise spins.

But of course, it's nowhere near as appealing visually as a T-Rex tearing someone in two.

Bummer.
