I have made a movies thread already, and I decided to make one to decide the very best movie of the last couple years. The ten pre-nominated movies are:
Sherlock Holmes
Avatar
Alice in Wonderland
Dark Knight
Star Trek
Land of the Lost
Godzilla
King Kong
The Blindside
9
This Contest consists of 3 parts. The nominating round, the first voting round, and the knockout rounds.
Nominating Round:
This round you may nominate any movie. You will also discuss the movies that have already been nominated. This will help me to choose only about 22 movies. A good post should consist of a nominee and a sentence about a pre-nominee.
Voting Round:
In this round you will vote to eliminate probably 6 movies. This depends on how many movies make the nomination round. We have to eliminate enough to have exactly 16 movies. Make sure you explain why you would like to eliminate this movie.
Tournament/Knockout Rounds
After we have voted off enough movies to have exactly 16 movies, I will make a tournament for all the movies. The Movies will be seeded based on how many votes they got to be eliminated. The tournament will be a one-loss knockout, so if you win you move on, if you lose you are out. Then each movie verses the winner right below/above them. Eventually only 1 will be left, and that movie will recieve the Ag Movie Award!
