Another close matchup between two great teams, but No Country For Old Men swings it.

He stole it from me and I will never forgive him.

trag's team:
- I don't like Bill Murray as an actor. He's a fun personality, but I just don't think he has the chops to be considered a great.
+ PTA is probably my favorite director, so big plus there.
- Haven't seen Parasite, my fault, but can't score for me there.
+ No Country is another all time favorite of mine. Pristine, never gets old.
+ Haven't seen Chinatown but I know its reputation, so slight plus for me there.
- Don't know Endless Summer...
+ Hoffman is another all time favorite of mine.
- Before Sunrise is kinda lame.. minus there for me.
+Back to The Future IS indeed a great movie.
MD:
+ I despise SW, but respect this movie enough.
+ I highly respect Kubrick, but most of his movies just aren't that re-watchable for me. Still an all-time great, though.
+ Tom Hanks has it all!
- Get Out is overrated.
+ Pyscho is slightly above average.
+ Shawshank never gets old. Cried to it several times.
- Never understood the love for Blazing Saddles. Not my humor I guess.
- I watched Dark Knight again recently and couldn't finish it.
+ Robin Williams is one of the best. Very diverse.
Gotta go MD here

Hoffman and BTTF give trag the slight edge.

Actually I'm gonna have to change my vote to trag because PTA is way better than SW.

Trag's highs for me are Bill Murray, No Country, and BttF, with some other solid choices.
I like pretty much all of M_D's team - probably my favourite of the tournament.

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.

Groundhog Day is the only one of those I like a lot, don't love.. and it's kinda despite him. I can think of many other actors that would've been as good or better in that role. I get it, it's just not my preference.
