    .. and my vote: Mulholland Drive

    Score So Far:
    Mulholland Drive 9 vs. There Will Be Blood 2

    This one might be over already, but I'll let it go at least a day or two.

    I'm sure a lot of films would.

    I was thinking of doing one of these for the 90s and then continuing each decade. If that happens, I might put together a winners bracket just to see.

    I dunno, Lynch fanboys seem to be running rampant... getting in the cookie jars... putting panties in their mouths... abusing oxygen masks... etc.

    Mulholland Dr.

    Like another vote was even needed. I'm just glad Lost in Translation finally got kicked. I'd put that one with the worst and most annoying of the decade.

    If these tournaments are good for one thing, it's to bring us all back down to Earth and make us realise that our tastes the same as any other fanboy-ish movie message board around, despite our beloved quirks.

    Anyway....

    I would prefer not to see Mulholland Dr. predictably take this tournament. I want a surprise winner out of nowhere.
    *shakes fist*

    Final Score:
    Mulholland Drive 15 vs. There Will Be Blood 7

    This spanking is over.

    I'm taking a break now, but might put together a 90s tourney in a couple weeks if there's enough interest. Speak up if you would participate in that.

    Yup. This is the most satisfactory of outcomes. I am satisfied.
    Giving up in 2020. Who cares.
