Once we get these last 4 picks, we can start sending in votes via PM, or you can post them in here, however you feel comfortable.

I will try to round up a few voters that are not part of the 14. lawdog1 is one, calibeebee should be 2, and I will reach out to P proshares as well.

nice dolphin selects Grave of the Fireflies, Utility

Master Zik is up

 

[danger style]

Damn my bad didnt notice nice dolphin was up.

heres his full selection post

My heart and nostalgia wants to pick A Goofy Movie for my last pick but as my comrade calibeebee calibeebee would say...

that objectively deserves this spot over the aforementioned 90’s kid CLASSIC.

Another Studio Ghibli hit. The ‘Schindler’s List’ of animated films. Seriously, if you’ve never watched this, I implore you before you do, to buckle up because you’re about to go on a feels trip.

Grave of the Fireflies, Utility

And with that, the cypher is complete *mic drop*

nice dolphin a wild boy for selecting Grave of the Fireflies. It's defintitely one of those films i'll watch once and never again. In fact, ill watch Schindlers List 3 times in a row before i peep Graves again.


Masterpiece though.

^^ All of this.

Movie had me sniveling like a 5 year old with a scraped knee by the end.

Great flick but I will never watch it again.

 

[Master Zik]

Really hard to decide on just one movie for my favorite genre.

Was heavily considering the OG Invasion if the Bodysnatchers. A ****ing classic. So damn good they couldn't even mess up the remake and that **** is almost as great.

Had to go with what I am @ heart. Living long and prospering since the 90s with a franchise that changed sci-fi and impacted society since the 60s

Master Zik selects as his final pick in the all-time film draft in the sci-fi category, the greatest sci-fi franchise of all time....

STAAAAAAARRRRR

TREEEEEEEKKKKKKK

Assassination was an amazing movie. Would that have counted as a western?
