Okay, we have 64. Nick's final nom, True Romance, didn't make the cut so I started a wild card list. To that I thirded A Better Tomorrow, A Bronx Tale, and The Pope of Greenwich Village.
I'll leave the noms list open and hopefully some of the deserving noms will be seen in the near future. I'd like to get at least four more on the wild card list to make it viable.
Be right back with the first brackets!

Round 1 - Bracket 1
Analyze This
"I'd like to see a movie, but it's nothing but this shoot-em-up action bullshit. I get enough of that at work."
vs.
Married to the Mob
"Oh, there's a big difference, Mrs. de Marco. The mob is run by murdering, thieving, lying, cheating psychopaths. We work for the President of the United States of America."
Round 1 - Bracket 2
The Krays
"Who loves you, eh? That's right, Mummy loves you, you little monsters. Mummy loves you more than anything - more than all the cakes, more than all the jewellery, more than all the chocolate in the world."
vs.
Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai
"When one has made a decision to kill a person, even if it will be very difficult to succeed by advancing straight ahead, it will not do to think about doing it in a long, roundabout way. One's heart may slacken, he may miss his chance, and by and large there will be no success. The Way of the Samurai is one of immediacy, and it is best to dash in headlong."

"Subtitles good. Hollywood bad." - Tarzan, Sight & Sound 2012 voter.
"My films are not slices of life, they are pieces of cake." - Alfred Hitchcock
"My great humility is just one of the many reasons that I am vastly superior to everyone else." - Ramrod Clerk
