    Probably closer for me than the seeding. Both great movies. It's kind of easy to dismiss Pulp Fiction due to its relative recency and because so many clueless late teen/early 20s fuck bags that I knew were obsessed with it.

    Pulp fiction due to my recency bias .. plus I saw it on opening night in front of a packed crowd and I'd never seen anything like it at the time.

    This is might be an upset if enough of the younger Tarantino fans get to the polling place in time.

    This was a serious struggle, committee needs to burn for this seeding.

    This perfectly encapsulates my feelings on the matchup. I love Pulp Fiction. It’s more “fun” to watch.

    But I’m not going to go against the family.
    Smart move. You saw what happened to Fredo.

    Millenials will never find their way to the polling booth without us gen Xers holding their hands and leading them there. If I thought there was a chance of it happening, I'd run a campaign to have their voting rights removed first.

    Pulp Fiction is great scenes and a lousy movie

    Godfather is crafted like a fine swiss watch

    Godfather II I think is the best movie of all time. It is so well done on every level. The interweaving or stories, both stories were fascinating and well done... cinematic masterpiece.

    There are two sequels better than the original. Well, maybe more but two that really stand out. This, and Empire. ANd my guess is they meet in the semis.

    We shouldn't even be debating this. It's not close.

    I'm actually kind of surprise none of the Rocky movies even made mention for the tourney.

    Rocky was pure genius when it first came out.

    Maybe a sports movie tourney later during this fucking dead time of baseball only.
