Re: The Best Film of 2005 Tournament
Abstain - don't care to see Potter. Flightplan was bad though.
Darwin's Nightmare - I Netflixed Dark Water to see Connelly, and she was the only thing worth seeing in that crap.

Not that interested in seeing Flightplan or Dark Water. Sorry.
HP was okay and DN is excellent.
