    That’s is very likely. The point is not only to pick the winner but also rank all the nominees. I will post a complete ranking of the 1970s later this week as I’m away on a mini vacation!

    Really? How about 2001: Space Odyssey? Planet of the Apes? Lawrence of Arabia? The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly? Dr. Strangelove...?, Bonnie and Clyde? Midnight Cowboy? The Manchurian Candidate? To Kill A Mockingbird? The Wild Bunch? The Great Escape? Those are just off the top of my head. It's another great decade. I am doubting Psycho will win out overall. It's rare that the favorite wins.

    As always Mae, thanks for running this ship.

    Thank you, Mae for running this tournament once again! Without you, these tournaments are nothing.

    I'm looking forward to the next tournament. As always for me, the nomination process is still my favorite part.

    Only seen about 5-7 films max from the 60’s. Won’t be as active and don’t really care who wins. What I think would be the most fun is to take the too 10 from every decade when this is over and run that. Be interesting to see what the all time best film would be

    You’re welcome, all. I agree, Psycho is an obvious choice but I’m not sure. Everyone thought The Godfather would win the ‘70s.

    Pacino and De Niro might have been in a few films in the 60s but they would probably have been smaller roles.

    Pacino and De Niro might have been in a few films in the 60s but they would probably have been smaller roles.
    Also, Meryl Streep's first film role wasn't until 1977.

    Sam Elliott is another name you could throw in there though.

    You are most welcome, everyone! This has been a really fun and rewarding (and distracting) thing.

    Wanted to resurface this for anyone working of their '60s list. The nominations thread drops July 1.

    Also, we should nail down the number of nominations. We have always used 256 (with the exception of 320 for the 2010s), so I really see three options:
    • Keep it at 256
    • Reduce to 224 (Round 1 will be 32 groups of 7 - top six move on, one eliminated, rest of tournament the same)
    • Reduce to 192 (Round 1 will be 32 groups of 6 - effectively skipping the regular Round 1)

    Maybe start with 224 or 192, and play it by ear with how the nominations are going. If 192 is reached quickly then up it to the next?
