P-aire, you have to vote on the matches from the first post, not choose your own movies 🙂

Although some of the movies you have chosen are still in the tournament. Including schindlers list, silence of the lambs and the godfather. Unfortunately godfather part II got eliminated in the 2nd round.

If you want to look at what has happened so far in the tournament, here’s a link:
