Incandenza It's not a zero-sum game.

Well this should seperate the men from the boys, so to speak.

An indie fist fight between Tarantino's foul mouthed miscreants and Kevin Smith's... foul mouthed miscreants.

American Beauty has been a popular choice but will it's latter day angst stand up to a blaster?

Fight Club's cynicism takes on feel good Green Mile and stand by for another classic to fall victim to Keifer's halitosis afflicted vampire.

The first three were real toughies. American Beauty is a better film, but my childhood obsession with Star Wars wouldn't let me vote against it. The other two were just close calls that I'll probably regret later. Guess it can only get tougher from here...
