    Hannibal may be greatest character ever

    He would eat Diane Keaton with favar beans and a merlot that drinks like a cab

    "Perfect movie" has been thrown around a lot this week. I think Silence of Lambs is one of them.

    It is. It should win over almost any other film.

    Hannibal Lecter:
    First principles, Clarice. Read Marcus Aurelius. Of each particular thing ask: what is it in itself? What is its nature? What does he do, this man you seek?

    Clarice Starling:
    He kills women...

    Hannibal Lecter:
    No! That is incidental. What is the first and principal thing he does, what need does he serve by killing?

    Clarice Starling:
    Anger, social resentment, sexual frustration...

    Hannibal Lecter:
    No, he covets. That's his nature. And how do we begin to covet, Clarice? Do we seek out things to covet? Make an effort to answer.

    Clarice Starling:
    No. We just...

    Hannibal Lecter:
    No. Precisely. We begin by coveting what we see every day. Don't you feel eyes moving over your body, Clarice? And don't your eyes move over the things you want?

    Godfather 1 or 2 is gonna win this tournament. They are both very good, but not the best movies of all time.

    It’s certainly probable although we have some other strong contenders in the other brackets.

    Just out of curiosity @RoadDawg55 what would you peg as the best movie of all time? I’m curious to hear your personal GOAT in particular.

    Best or favorite are hard for me. I like Goodfellas better than The Godfather. Pulp Fiction, The Dark Knight, Apocalypse Now, Fight Club.

    I often watch 20 min of anyThe Godfather’s, including part 3 when I’m flipping channels. I just don’t think it’s the best movie.

    I’m shocked that Gladiator is about to upset Apocalypse now.

    SOTL scared the shit out of me when it came out. It's disturbing to think there are people out there capable of exactly that shit.

    That said, this isn't a competition. This is like UW vs. Whitman in rowboat (the Missionaries don't even have a team - there's not water in Walla Walla).

    Mike you don't put SOTL against a movie like the Godfather!
