Samatha Baker Division, Fort Arnold regionals: (2) The Empire Strikes Back (15) Weird Science

John Cougar Lunchbucket Oct 16 2008 06:26 AM

These 4 polls are the max per day I promise.

Rockin' Doc Oct 16 2008 07:32 AM

This one looks like a total mismatch.

AG/DC Oct 16 2008 07:39 AM

"She wouldn’t have to worry bout no titties for the rest of her life." is sure better writing than "THEN I'LL SEE YOU IN HELL!" But Empire trumps it on most other metrics. On inspection, the science in Empire Strikes Back was as dumb as that in Weird Science.. Commonalitites: Creepy mutant baldies. Smoove talking men of color. Heroines played by American actresses who had traces of British accents from their school days.

TESB v WS... you're kidding, right?

themetfairy Oct 16 2008 07:56 AM

I don't really love either of these films. But I'll acknowledge that Empire is the better of the two.

You're kidding right? Weird Science shouldn't have been in any of the brackets... It's like putting Gonzaga up against Duke. Oh, wait...

empire. natch.

Vince Coleman Firecracker Oct 16 2008 09:45 AM

Who voted for Weird Science? Come to the Dark Side!

Fman99 Oct 16 2008 10:30 AM

I enjoyed Weird Science but it ain't Empire. Perhaps the biggest spoiler ever in cinema at the end. Just fantastic, and the best of all six Star Wars movies.

metsmarathon Oct 16 2008 11:42 AM

technically, clone wars makes seven, doesn't it? of course, they shoulda really stopped at three...

HahnSolo Oct 16 2008 11:49 AM

I think its safe to announce a winner in this one.

AG/DC Oct 16 2008 11:57 AM

Who are you? Paddy Power?

HahnSolo Oct 16 2008 12:05 PM

Yup. Unless some great influx of Kelly LeBrock fans sign up.

John Cougar Lunchbucket Oct 16 2008 12:16 PM

I sort of liked how the kids in Weird Science were so easily overwhelmed by their creation. I mean, they had it made and pissed themselves scared.

She's into malakas, Dino.

Mackey Sasser liked Kelly Lebrock.

soupcan Oct 16 2008 12:37 PM

Voted 'Empire' but I'd still like to butter Kelly LeBrock's muffin.

Vic Sage Oct 16 2008 03:13 PM

she shoulda been naked...

Of course, if you're looking for full frontal Kelly in her younger humpable days, I'd suggest "The Woman in Red." I'd recommend the soundtrack to that film as well, to anyone looking for anything.

Chips, dips, chains, whips.

John Cougar Lunchbucket Oct 17 2008 07:14 AM

I am declaring this one over. How do you lock a thread? 23-2 is your final!

AG/DC Oct 17 2008 07:18 AM

It's your call, but I think we should let it live for the chat. Alternatively, I can just bump it to the Film Review Forum,.

John Cougar Lunchbucket Oct 17 2008 07:19 AM

Sure whatever. I just don't want the close ones to gain late votes and monkey up the whole magilla

AG/DC Oct 17 2008 07:24 AM

It's 23-2. Late voters mean nothing. NOTHING!

Benjamin Grimm Oct 17 2008 07:26 AM

You could open each poll with a 2-day expiration. I did that with the Presidential polling thread, but I'm not aware of whether it worked or not! (If there's anyone who didn't vote in that thread, please check it out and see if it's open or closed to voting.) As for this thread, I didn't vote. I didn't think much of Empire and never saw Weird Science.

John Cougar Lunchbucket Oct 17 2008 07:28 AM

That's what I will do from now on. Starting another regional this morning and I'll let it go till early Monday

Benjamin Grimm Oct 17 2008 07:55 AM

It worked! I retroactively made this poll expire after one day, and after I did that I was no longer able to cast a vote. I now see the results as if I had voted, even though I didn't. I'll do the same with the other closed polls, just so no additional votes trickle in.

John Cougar Lunchbucket Oct 17 2008 08:10 AM

Yeah, time to close all polls
