It is with great pleasure that Yellow Snow’s Record Shoppe presents to our loyal customers, the 2019 Hardcore Husky Favorite Films of all Time Tournament. Shout out to @Doog_de_Jour who volunteered her time to serve on the executive seeding committee!! We realize there are many glaring omissions, and already other ideas are in the hopper (e.g., The All James Bond Tournament present by @Tequilla and @Dennis_DeYoung ) . But we did our best to have these entries and seedings accurately reflect the will of the people; executive decisions were kept to a minimum. TYFYS to all who submitted their top 10 (and longer for those who aren’t skrong at Maff) lists.
And now the brackets / seedings….poles will open tomorrow for Round 1.
Hollywood Blockbusters 1- Raiders of the Lost Ark 8- The Dark Knight 4- Alien 5- Terminator 1 3- Jaws 6- Die Hard 2- Empire Strikes Back 7- Return of the King
Drama / Crime 1- Godfather I 8- Shawshank Redemption 4- Silence of the Lambs 5- The Usual Suspects 3- Goodfellas 6- Heat 2- Godfather II 7- Pulp Fiction

War & Clint 1- Apocalypse Now 8 - Braveheart 4- Dirty Harry 5 - Gladiator 3- Full Metal Jacket 6- Saving Private Ryan 2- Patton 7 - The Outlaw Josey Wales
Criminal. How you gonna put a possible championship game in the first round?
No idea how 40 year old Virgin got in ahead of Dumb and Dumber, the Hangover, Super Troopers, Anchorman, South Park Movie, Team America, Zoolander, Dodgeball, Superbad, hell Pineapple Express is probably funnier than 40 year old virgin.
Most egregious inclusion and a blackeye for HH IMO.

Full disclosure: Not the biggest Godfather fan. Had never seen them until about five years ago and watched them because I realized I had skipped a cultural phenomenon. Didn't see anything remarkable about them. Shawshank a million times better than any Godfather movie.
You should just now go fuck yourself.
A man who doesn't like Godfather I and II isn't a man.

Otherwise pretty good.
Very much agree, but also I get that comedy is the most subjective genre for people.

You've given up the game now. "A man who doesn't like __________ isn't a man" pretty much spells out that the popularity is driven by manufactured insecurity and peer pressure. I like to say, "A man who gives a fuck what 'creepycoug' on a message board thinks is a limp dick pussy-ass bitch." It's what I like to do.
Anyway, there were a LOT of movies on people's lists that I flat out hated and yet made somebody's top-20. To each their own. Does somebody put on a lycra suit to fight crime? Then I fucking hate that movie. They sure do well at the box office, though. The Thin Red Line? I actually yelled, "Oh come on!" at the theater screen the third time I thought the movie was mercifully ending but then it didn't. And I thought the Godfather movies were sort of boring and lacked any real character arc. For gangster movies, I liked Road to Perdition better.
I notice there were a lot of gangster movies on these top lists. People seem to be into them, giving them an automatic bump. Then again, people are into John Wick, so I guess I'll just go fuck myself.
Comments
I did reply to a post that gave IMDB user rankings. I'm not saying one is better than the other.
This is a college football message bored?
I appreciate borat being added. Assuming baze does as well.
I’ll just leave it at that.
By a long shot
A man who doesn't like Godfather I and II isn't a man.
Fully expect Borat to win that bracket
