During the first round of The Best Movie Scene Tournament, please vote for up to six movie scenes you would like to move onto the next round. The top six 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:
The Monster Meets his Bride - Bride of Frankenstein (1935)
Germans Bomb Pearl Harbor - Animal House (1978)
Wood Chipper scene - Fargo (1996)
Chest defibrillation - The Thing (1982)
Clock Tower Stunt - Safety Last! (1923)
Ode to Joy scene - Immortal Beloved (1994)
Opening Barracks scene - Full Metal Jacket (1987)
The "Grey" scene (Courtyard duel) - Hero (2002)
