I'm voting for Serenity because it has both philosophical, comedic, dramatic, and action elements all woven seamlessly together.

Serenity is leading the pack.

Ashes, if Memento doesn't win this time out, we'll get to it. In fact if it loses I'll just go ahead and name it as the 2nd movie we do.

Wouldn't we watch the winner of this poll first and then the second choice next and so on (taking care of any ties as we go or setting up new polls as need be)?

I am fine with Memento if it is next. It's a great movie.

Just figured we'd be fair as we go, voting for each movie and adding new choices as they are suggested.

Personally I was going to vote for Unbreakable because it is my favorite movie. But I figured more people had Serenity and that movie was more fun to watch for our inaugural outing.

Somewhere down the line though I'm sure it will get voted in. I am also a big fan of V for Vendetta.

Uncharacteristically, I didn't vote for Serenity. But I'm all for watching it again anyway :) Will give me an excuse to break out my shiny Collectors Edition that I bought but never actually watched...

I love Serenity, but I didn't vote for it since I pretty much have it memorized. Same for Princess Bride, Fifth Element, and Robocop. All fine movies that I'd love to discuss.

That being said, I threw my vote at Stigmata, since I haven't seen it, and it looks the most interesting out of the three that are on the list that I'm interested in seeing (the other two being Memento and Grosse Point).

I voted for Serenity since Navarre owns it and I can watch it with him.
Smile. It could be worse.
