Coraline and Them tied for fourth.

I was this close to watching Ils (Them) this weekend but my girl wanted to watch a stupid romantic comedy instead. :rolleyes:

I need to carve out some time this week to just sit down and watch it on my own without distractions.

You have probably just enough time if you drop everything and sit down and watch it right now before the poll closes :D

It needs 1 more vote to tie for forth place.

Cast Away (68.00%)

Oh man, now Them is gone... :panic:

Such poor grammar. You mean "They are gone" LOL

I'm actually surprised at the success of Enemy at the Gates, going onto Round 3. I thought it was a pretty small film and not well known.

She obviously needs to go. You said it yourself: she's a distraction. :lol:

Enemy at the Gates is good, but not a film that ever really stood out for me. I have a huge movie collection and I pass over it everytime I see it for cheap. I just don't think there's a reason to watch it again.
