    Half of our yearly winners remain. The matchups are getting tougher. Who will proceed?



    HEREDITARY

    Steve: You know, Annie, you can always build a shrine to all the terrible things in the world, but it doesn't mean that you have to destroy anything that is good.

    Versus...



    PARASITE

    Ki-taek: She's rich, but still nice.

    Chung-sook: Not "rich, but still nice." She's nice because she's rich. Hell, if I had all this money. I'd be nice, too!

    The winner will move on to the next round. The full bracket is attached below.

    I need to stop doing these in such a rush. @Henry can you change it from Pulp Fiction to Parasite?

    I had seven minutes until the students got back from lunch while texting someone about dinner plans. It is a miracle I got them off at all.

    Let it run Supporter

    Hmm. Two of the weaker ones left, imo, even though I like them. I'll go Parasite

    Hereditary was horror so well done that I never want to watch it again. That being said, it's Parasite by a mile for me.
     
  12. Do you not!?
     
  13. I have a kid there is no time for a nap

    When you nap regularly, it is like you get to live double the days.

    You know who's never going to enjoy a nap again? Charlie from the motion picture Hereditary.

    Always do the right thing. Supporter

    Both are extremely strong works from two of the best directors we have today, but Parasite is the stronger film. No praise towards Parasite is a knock on Hereditary, which has its own strengths, but the control Bong Joon-ho has on the gas pedal in Parasite is a marvel.

    Idk what it was about Hereditary, but it’s one of the few films in which I thought of leaving midway.

    I think I just didn’t like the seat I was, but I couldn’t focus on the film and was just really irritated midway through.

    Probably because it’s not very good
