Dueling Movies Game
« on: March 17, 2009, 10:31 AM »
Alright, make sure you read this and understand it (yes you can PM me question Achilles).

Rules are simple:

1. I will post the name of two movies.

ie. Princess Bride vs. Van Helsing

2. The first person to wish to reply, can chose which movie he/she will give a raving review in favor off.

ie. Van Helsing - Great graphics, sexy girl, action packed, etc.

3. The next person will have to take the movie that was left behind and do a great review of that movie.

ie. Princess Bride - Classic, clean humor, known by many, etc.

4. The next 3 members/guests (who did not participate on steps 2 or 3) will vote for one of the two movies by simple stating the name of the movie.

ie. Van Helsing

5. Once a movie has received 2 (or 3) votes, that person gets a point and they won the duel.

Clarifications:

Members dueling will NOT post a response to the other person's review. If your post is "edited" you are disqualified...so make sure you check it prior to pressing 'Post'.

Those voting, will vote for the movie ONLY, no commentary please. You are not part of the review, just the vote. Next time get here first and review a movie in time.

First member to 10 win's will get a special sig to add to his signature allowing him to brag about his movie knowledge dominance.

Moderation team will delete any and all posts that do not follow the rules and if you were in the game you will lose points.

Regards,
Menelaos

X-men - Good special effects, good story, bit cliche, overall worth a 7.

This game has been cancelled due to lack of interest by those who read these forums.

Serves me well for trying to bring some fun into the forums.

You can all go find a really tall poll, you can sit on it and then ROTATE!

Master Achilles is declared the right out winner with 2 points.

Thank you to those who bothered to post.

What! I won one. And I refuse to agree to you cancelling this game, it was great.

I just haven't seen the suggested ones often.. But still man, keep this going.

Damnit I'd throw in an opinion on this one but I know little about both. Well, I heard Resident Evil rocks but..  ;)

I have to admit, the FANTASTIC reviews for the movies so far could not have been written any better by an mosquito.

Hey Grim, please get your butt in here and show them how a review is done already!!!
