Brook's Paramount Collection Tournament


Ok, this will be a short one as I only have 16 Paramount titles, and that's with stealing a couple from other distributors that were originally Paramount releases. But only two non-US movies are included so hopefully the abstains will be minimal.


Round 1

Horror
Rosemary's Baby
vs.
Sleepy Hollow

Cowboys (sorta)
Once Upon A Time In The West
vs.
Urban Cowboy



Yes, Captain Hammer's here, hair blowing in the breeze. The day needs my saving expertise! - Captain Hammer, Corporate Tool

2002 Sight & Sound Challenge: 314 Last Watched: An Autumn Afternoon

Last 10 Films Watched:
Mon Oncle Antoine - B / Late Autumn - A-
Paranoid Park - B / An Autumn Afternoon - A
Forgetting Sarah Marshall - B / Run, Fatboy, Run - B
Get Smart - C- / Rendition - B-
Springtime in a Small Town - B+ / Evan Almighty - C

Rosemary's Baby is technically the better film but I have more fun with Sleepy Hollow

Once Upon A Time In The West - about as easy as the Homecoming Queen



The Collection (Blu-Ray High Definition/DVD)

Pre-orders - BLU-RAY: Akira, The Dark Knight, The Day the Earth Stood Still, Death Proof, King Kong, La Femme Nikita, Planet Terror, Raging Bull, Ronin, The Third Man DVD: .................
