Easy Rider

 

[Brook K]

Point Blank advances 3-1

Easy Rider and Electra Glide In Blue are tied 2-2. I'll leave it open another day before resorting to the coin. I haven't seen Electra so can't break the tie.


The Honeymoon Killers
vs.
Fritz The Cat

The Wild Bunch
vs.
High Plains Drifter

 

[Elizabeth S]

Easy Rider in the previous round, though I really like Electra Glide in Blue.

This round: abstain

 

[Walter Kittel]

abstain
The Wild Bunch

- Walter.

 

[Jay E]

The Honeymoon Killers
The Wild Bunch

2 easy choices for me (for a change)

 

[SteveGon]

The Honeymoon Killers
The Wild Bunch

Missed the last round. Would have voted Two-Lane Blacktop and probably Electra Glide in Blue. Easy Rider is easily more influential than EGIB, but it's awfully dated. Tough choice.

[Brook K]

Easy Rider advances 3-2
The Honeymoon Killers advances 4-0, including my vote.
The Wild Bunch advances 7-1, including my vote.

Easy Rider and Fritz The Cat are 2 of the 3 movies in this poll that I've seen on film.

Targets
vs.
Five Easy Pieces

Badlands
vs.
Dirty Mary Crazy Larry

 

[george kaplan]

Targets

abstain

 

[SteveGon]

Targets
Badlands

Tough choices.

 

[Bill McA]

Five Easy Pieces
Badlands

 

[Scott Weinberg]

Targets

 

[Walter Kittel]

Five Easy Pieces
Dirty Mary Crazy Larry - Maybe because I rewatched Vanishing Point last night?

- Walter.

 

[John C. Wilson]

Targets

Badlands

 

[Brook K]

Badlands advances 3-1
Targets advances 4-2 in what I would term a stunning upset. If I was seeding the movies myself, I'd have Five Easy Pieces around #3-#5. Of course I haven't seen Targets so I can't judge for myself.

We're half way through Round 1

Straw Dogs
vs.
American Graffiti

Serpico
vs.
Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore

 

[SteveGon]

Straw Dogs
Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore

Two more tough choices.
