None of the above. I'm intimidated by the handsomeness of Redford, Thornton, and Skeletor. |

SceneItAll Tournament: Round 1, Heat 80
The rules:
In Round 1, I'm going to put up three randomly selected scenes from the nomination thread. You'll vote for your ONE favorite scene among the three. The key here is FAVORITE. We're not talking about the 'best' or 'most powerful' or 'most meaningful'. We're talking about the scene that you most enjoy watching, however you define that. The winners will move on. I'll also take the 10 highest-scoring second-place scenes and they'll advance as wild cards. Some of our nominations did not include clips. This will be noted. If you find a clip, please post it and let me know so I can update it if it moves on. |

Hmm, tough one. My votes:
#1 - Slingblade. A couple of his lines cracked me up, both the "aim to kill" one and the "which numbers do you put in" one. #2 - Masters of the Universe. A good sleeper scene. It was better than I expected. That little midget guy with the hair band hair and hooked hand kind of freaked me out, though. #3 - The Natural. It's a nice scene, but it wasn't quite long enough for me to appreciate what was going on.

That Slingblade scene is very good. That whole movie is good. I agree with Dallas Chief about Dwight Yoakam. He was wonderful in that movie.

Also, Rain Man voted for a murder scene. Is that a first?

I think the key here is that we couldn't actually see blood or brain matter. He seems to be more squeamish than anything. |

The sound of the murder was kind of gruesome. But it was offset by the humor of the lines preceding the murder. So in my mental scoring system, we have...
Positives Eccentric people Humorous lines that are unexpected Murder off camera Murderer seems more likable than victim Negatives Weird sound of lawnmower blade chopping through skull Implied gruesomeness Overall, it's a win.

That all makes sense. I figured it was the lack of blood...and I knew it being off camera had to help.

Sling Blade is way overrated as a movie.
