    I'll second that one, Kris! It's an awesome suggestion!
    That's a bad ass idea.

    The only drawback I can picture is that some of those scenes might be spoiler-ish. Something like the ending of The Usual Suspects, for instance.

    True. Images would have to suffice, in that case.

    But if it's truly the best scene of all time, it's gotta exist somewhere on the internet, right?

    Maximum 12 minutes per "scene" should suffice.

    For instance, the "Sicilian" scene from True Romance (see my above post) lasts for 10 mins 46 seconds.

    10-15 minutes maximum sounds about right.

    Limiting entries to one scene per film, does seem strange. That would be like only nominating one song from each artist in the music tournament.

    Take the movie Goodfellas for example. At a minimum, I would expect both of these scenes to be nominated....

    For variety. We always did one movie per franchise, didn't we? Not the same as one song per artist, it's more like one song per album. The idea is to not have 40 movies account for half the nominations.

    It was never one movie per franchise. The Best Horror tournament featured both Evil Dead and Evil Dead 2.

    The Best Sci-Fi tournament featured both the first two Terminator films, together with Alien, Aliens and all three original Star Wars films.

    How about in honor of the Oscars this Sunday we do a Best Best Picture, pitting all BP Oscar winners against one another?

    Nope. There are many scenes in the Matrix I would nominate... can't do one per movie. MAKES NO SENSE!

    Also are we talking about great scenes or iconic scenes? I'm mean when "chunk" shouts"hey you guys" is iconic but not necessarily a great scene!!

    All truly great scenes, are by definition, iconic.

    Regarding The Goonies when Chunk shouts "Hey you guys!" It's just the quote that became iconic, not the scene.

    GIII is an interesting movie - initially had me wondering what it was doing in that franchise, then worked its way around to it, and by the end, yeah - good movie with a tale worth telling, and ended right.

    So going through the thread again here are all the hypothetical tournaments that have been proposed that I've seen, sorry if I missed any other suggestions:
    • Best film of a year/decade
    • Best screenwriter
    • Best composer/score
    • Worst film
    • Best action film
    • Best [country] film
    • Best animated film
    • Best detective
    • Best Stephen King adaptation
    • Best suspense/mystery/thriller film
    • Best sports film
    • Best war film
    • Best western film
    • Best drama film
    • Best musical film
    • Best movie quote
    • Best superhero film
    • Best movie poster
    • Best scene
    • Best movie villain
    • Best TV series since 2000
    • Best Best Picture Oscar winner

    Kinda itching to get back into voting. It's a drug.
