Another tough one, but Rock comes out on top.

Oh wow, I thought this would be way closer...

Sometimes it comes down to a factor of repeated viewing, and for me, while I love The Deer Hunter as a film, powerful as it is, it's not one that I see the need to watch over an over. Rocky though, has been on a lot of late and I have seen so many parts of it over and over - tough not to watch.

The poll has closed. Rocky moves on and The Deer Hunter is eliminated.
