Battle of the Blockbusters - 2017 Edition - WINNER: RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK

Recommended Posts

Rogue One has now become one of the top 64 domestic earners of all time, so I wanted to bring this fun little voting game back. With the top 64 ticket sellers of all time, I pit two against each other and each round we vote to eliminate half the films, with the seeding based on how the films finished last time we did this game, with Rogue One taking the spot of the now-65th ranked film (Back to the Future).

 

Also, Box Office Mojo failed to include the gross of the 1950 animated Cinderella up until this year, so it's now taking the spot held by The Two Towers.

are we supposed to vote on everything? i haven't seen most of those.

 

not sure about officially, but I think people only vote on what they have seen so far.  I've seen them all so I made a pick in all of them.  It just happened to work out that way for me :P

If you haven't seen the films in either category just leave those blank, if you've only seen one- it's up you I guess.
