I know, The Matrix, but I'm surprised Seven is trailing by 1.

Would the vote still be as close if...Denzel Washington had been Detective David Mills in "Se7en" (https://www.msn.com/en-us/movies/gallery/29-actors-who-turned-down-huge-movie-roles/ss-BBVl57t?ocid=spartanntp#image=6) or if...Sandra Bullock ended up playing computer hacker Neo in "The Matrix" (https://www.msn.com/en-us/movies/gallery/29-actors-who-turned-down-huge-movie-roles/ss-BBVl57t?ocid=spartanntp#image=29)?

Haha. I love the Matrix but I think Se7en is the better movie.

Oh, and that last vote wasn't me. I already voted.

Wow, another hugely popular blockbuster going down.

One thing I'm noticing is that many of the posters here value high-brow cinema over the more popcorn flicks.

For me, I just choose which I find more enjoyable regardless of what kind of film it is. Se7en is a fantastic film, but the original Matrix is just so watchable. When you mix in its impact on the world of film, it should move on easily.

The two films I thought had a chance of beating Shawshank - Jurassic Park and The Matrix - are gone. This should be an easy victory and a somewhat anticlimactic end to a fantastic tournament. When does the next one start?

The poll has closed. Seven moves on and The Matrix is eliminated.

When does the next one start?

In a couple of month-ish?
