Luke is easily the most offensive list between these two.

[Evan Case]

Luke has the Force, all right. The police force that is, busting him for drug possession and usage.

Though Justin is clearly insane, I'll still have to give the golden straightjacket to Luke. Tough call.

Luke - Close!

 

[george kaplan]

Luke is clearly living in the asylum (Dr. Strangelove, North by Northwest ), but Justin has his own padded cell (Star Wars, Monty Python & the Holy Grail, Back to the Future, Raiders of the Lost Ark, Young Frankenstein )

So I'll vote for Justin, though they both have 2 of the 10 best films ever made, and both need to have the keys to the asylum thrown away. Frankly, I haven't been this 'offended' (in movie terms) since the announcement of who won Best Picture in 1997

Of course, I shouldn't really be surprised, since Justin also thinks Billy Wilder is a 'good' director, but Paul Verhoeven (remember Showgirls?) is 'an all-time great' (my side still hurts from laughing and I read that yesterday )

 

[ChuckDeLa]

Yowza. I don't even know what to say without being insulting. "To each his own," I guess.

LukeB -
strongly disagree: 6 (A Clockwork Orange, Dr. Strangelove, Ran, North By Northwest, Manhattan, Airplane!)
disagree: 1 (Silence of the Lambs)
agree: 1 (Easy Rider)

Justin_S -
strongly disagree: 5 (Star Wars, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Raiders of the Lost Ark, Fantasia, Young Frankenstein)
agree: 2 (Almost Famous, Scream)
strongly agree: 1 (Back to the Future)

I gotta say Luke.

 

[Evan Case]

Luke has eight films I love (four to six of my Top 100), one I like a lot (Airplane!), and one I agree with (Easy Rider).

Justin has nine I love (including two Top Ten and six or seven Top 100) and one that's just ok (Scream).

Justin wins, but Luke provides more competition than I would have thought possible.

Luke - I agree with all but two of Justin's picks.

[Jan H]

This is a tough mathup. Maybe it should be a tie, and we can award a Golden Crackpipe to one, and a Diamond Syringe to the other.

Anyway,

Luke's list bugs me slightly more.

 

[JenB]

Justin_S

 

[Jim_K]

I'll vote Justin in a very close match.

We have a TIE for the most offensive list.

They'll have to share the GOLDEN CRACK-PIPE AWARD.
