Another packed group - I'm kinda surprised at how well the first Star Trek film is going - not a great movie.

Agreed, while Klute and Fantastic Planet are tied for the last spot, yet best case both should move on.

I'm stunned that Last Tango in Paris is in last place. I didn't expect it to get the most votes in this group but I didn't expect it to go home either.

As cute as it was, BNB is inferior to Klute, but the people have spoken.

Or Star Trek, for that matter.
