Blu-ray.com Tournament - Sony Pictures Region 3rd Round (Sweet 16) Come Vote!! - Blu-ray Forum

CZAR · 02-17-2010, 12:49 AM

Ok this is the Sony Pictures portion of the Sweet 16! Just to be clear for some of those that dont follow march madness here is how it works. This poll will have 4 films but they are in matchups. So for example #1 seed Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark is up against #13 seed The Godfather. U only vote for 1 of those films to advance. U do that with every 2 films paired up and u choose 1 of each 2 paired because only 1 film from each pair will advance.

So its not 4 films head to head but they are in pairs head to head. Make sure u vote 1 film for each matchup. This will be opened for 3 days which is plenty of time to get your votes in. The winner of each individual matchup will advance to the Great 8. Remember dont vote for the best 2 out of the 4 but do it on a matchup by matchup basis. If u have any questions feel free to ask!

Also this is not a best of or favorites matchup. I would say vote based on the overall take of the film u either feel is better or that u like better or a combination of both! Its up to u of what films to vote for and why. Make your vote count and please only vote 1 film for each paired matchup so that the voting totals come out correct. Below is the bracket link for this region just to make sure u understand what the matchups are. Here we go. Lets get this started!! Got Em!!

Same here. May have been already discussed but how did The Godfather, widely considered one of the top 3 films of all time get a 13 seed.

Voted:
The Godfather
Lord of the Rings:FOTR

The Godfather was easy. SPR vs. LOTR was tuff

It was very low in its genre vote wise and the seeding was based on placement in its category. Got Em!!

Just wondering, thanks for the explain. I cannot believe it was low on its genre even though.

These films could be a final four, but I went with Indy and Private Ryan. These were the hardest choices I've had in the tournament so far.
