Greatest Movie of All Time - Group 11

[Misanthrope]

The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King: Broke trilogy tradition by being the best of the three. A lengthy epic that likely won't be topped anytime soon.

Aliens: Not to be confused with the original psychological thriller. This is the nearly as good sequel.

Batman Begins: The reinvention of a classic super hero brought a truly 'dark knight' to the screen.

Kill Bill: Tarantino's gory, witty, and visually stunning martial arts epic.

Run Lola Run: Cult German flick starring Franka Potente. Quite enjoyable.

Sheesh, two of the absolute best - LOTR: Return of the King and Aliens - in this group.

Im an enormous fan of the LOTR trilogy. The way in which Peter Jackson not only equalled but surpassed our wildest expectations of how this would turn out was nothing short of amazing.

Has there ever been a harder story to adapt to the screen? Unlikely. So i reckon LOTR is the greatest achievement in cinema history.

Aliens though is perhaps the most entertaining movie ive ever seen. I can't fault it in any way. James Cameron is a genius for the way he built upon the original Alien and Terminator movies. So many directors would have screwed up the sequels, but he did them perfectly.

Tough choice. Flip a coin.

agree with everything tommy wrote ^^ can't split aliens and return of the king ... i might go aliens because i feel LOTR will sh*t it in

Return of the King, brilliant end to one of the better trilogies you will see/read.

I decided to go Aliens, but Rotk was hard to knock back.
Another poll where things were bloody tough to decide.

Though I'm loathe to cast the deciding vote, it's been nearly 24 hours. Batman Begins gets my vote and goes through at the expense of Aliens.
