DPAD Top Movies Face/Off R1 V21: The Innkeepers v Star Trek: The Voyage Home v The Chaser v Willow v Million Dollar Baby v Central Intelligence

[Mickmrly]

Welcome to the 21st vote in the 1st Round of the DPAD Movie Face/Off series!

In this competition, DPAD members vote through polls for their favourite movie out of a series of films selected, and the most popular one goes on to the next round. If a tie occurs, there is a one on one face/off specifically to determine the winner, and that winner moves on to the next round. You can change your vote if you want to before the 48 hour deadline, after which the results will be recorded and I'll post the winner/tied winners.

Here are the 6 movies to choose between this time:

The Innkeepers (2011)

Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home (1986)

The Chaser (2008)

Willow (1988)

Million Dollar Baby (2004)

Central Intelligence (2016)

Hmmm, WIllow gets it.

 

[HE1NZ]

Between Million Dollar Baby and Star Trek for me. I'll go with Star Trek. Love the original 6 movies

That's from Star Trek 5 not 4. That movie was a bit different to the rest. A lot of singing row row row the boat. 🛥

 

[Bullet Club]

Yeah I know. Even numbered ones were good and odd numbered ones were not so good.

 

[GreyHorace]

The Voyage Home is the 2nd best of the TOS Star Trek movies. The Wrath of Khan being the first. Still, it's a fun movie that delivers on the comedy. It has my vote here.

Haven't seen the others except for Willow. Okay movie. But nothing really special. Sad that Disney has fucked it up with the new Disney+ show.

 

[Mickmrly]

I really love Central Intelligence as a movie but Star Trek 4 has been one of my favourites for much longer.

 

[Ascend]

Definitely Million Dollar Baby.

 

[Mickmrly]

Definitely Million Dollar Baby.

What did you like about it? I haven't watched too many sporty movies but this one seems to have an interesting premise.

 

[teezzy]

I'm a sucker for The Innkeepers

That movie slaps

It's a very good boxing movie, very conservative and realistic like all Clint films. But it's a bit oscar baity.

 

[Arkam]

WILLOW!!!!!

Not even close for me. I love me some Willlow.

 

[HE1NZ]

 

[FactsAreDead]

Star Trek 4, as it's my favorite Star Trek-movie.

Also lol Million Dollar Baby.

 

[Mickmrly]

That was unexpected. I guess bitterness can cause people to go places just to be petty.

I liked almost everything about it. It is a great reflection of human nature at multiple points in the film. The story is great, and I love endings that are not your typical unicorn flying over the rainbow endings.

 

[Mickmrly]

Star Trek IV and Willow are both tied at 3! It looks like there will have to be a one on one battle between them to be able to move on to the next Round.

Due to it being Christmas this weekend, I think that I'll have the 1 on 1 showdown on Tuesday, before the Wednesday face/off for vote 24.

 

[Ascend]

Barely any votes though. Too many people unaware of this thread I think.

 

[Vyse]

I, uh, saw the thread before but forgot to vote.

Put me down for Star Trek IV if you can though.

I'll try and @ you next week when I do the 1 v 1 match up. Because it's Christmas it'll be on Tuesday instead of Monday.
