I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

For me, I won't be judging a team as a whole against another team as a whole. I'll be looking at the individual category matchups (60's movie v 60's movie, for example) and seeing which team wins the most of those inner matches.

In case of a tie, I'll look at overall strength of team composition.

His films are just very important to me. If someone else locked him in, even in a later round, I'd be slightly bummed. Probably similar to how Joey felt about securing Fight Club.

We obviously want to get some votes, but it's the most fun when you pick the stuff nearest and dearest* IMO.

*or what's left from the 60's after TGTBATU and 2001 are snapped up. Those were my 1 and 2. Bastards.

Dr Strangelove is still available for the 60s. Just saying.

I won't be using this shootout approach to voting. I'll be thinking about how happy I'd be with a person's team in a vacuum. Maybe that's just me.

Same here
