Basterds - 7
Django - 0

Although Christoph waltz is equally amazing in both.

Not trying to be the counter-culture guy, but I actually preferred Django. I grew up watching spaghetti westerns, and it was chock full of all the hallmarks and little details of the genre (I especially liked the way the camera zoomed in on people's faces, old-school style). Django himself could have used a little more personality, Waltz was doing his thing (which was great, but was definitely a reprise of his acting in Basterds), and the plot had some wonkiness to it (especially with their whole plot to save Broomhilda), but I actually got a big kick out of it. I don't know, westerns just have a way of humanizing every single character, and then killing them all horribly, that just has a special kind of style and impact to it.

Inglorious Basterds - 7

Django: Unchained - 1

Bumping the **** out of this thread, just because. Basterds (rightfully) won that last round.

Now it's time for THE BATTLE OF THE ANDERSONS!

The Master vs. The Life Aquatic

GO!

The Life Aquatic is a great film, but there really is no contest when you go up against PTA.

The Master - 1
The Life Aquatic - 0

The Master is the film of the decade, and one of the greatest character studies ever. And that 65mms panavision photography? Breathless. As much as I like the other Anderson, The Master is in the top ten all time for me. A masterpiece among masterpieces.

This shit ain't dying on my watch.

You guys ready for another round? How about Suspiria V.S Rosemary's Baby?

**Frownland** · 01-23-2017, 02:54 PM

Rosemary's Baby by a long shot. I'll give both a watch and write a longer answer though.

Rosemary's Baby - 1
Suspiria - 0

Personally, I've gotta go with Suspiria. It's just so much fun. The awesomely weird music, the random neon lights everywhere, the over the top kills, it's strangely entertaining.

Rosemary's Baby - 1
