Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back to WIN

Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan to GO

sry callista but got to agree with lucreleia on this one -- have always loved these with a passion -- own every single SW ever -- am a huge, huge fan and though agreed Khan was excellent IMO nothing holds a candle to Darth, Luke, Yoda, Obi Wan, Hans, Leia and on and on so much to love ... wanted SW from the beginning!!!

tough but still a no brainer!!

teehee!

[Callista]

Wrath of Khan to win
Star Wars for second.

Actually, I'm quite pleased it comes down to these two movies so I won't be terribly upset if Khan comes in second. (Just wait for the best sci-fi death tourny, though! When Spock died I made quite a spectacle of myself at the theater. It was very embarrassing!)

[Frinky]

Final Round (Round 79):
Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan to win.
Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back to go.

Ah well, even though I thought Serenity should win, 3rd place isn't that bad.

[Missster.Freeman]

Final Round


Both films deserve to be number one tbh, but there has to be a winner. So...

Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan to WIN
Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back for second place.

EMPIRE STRIKES BACK:

VADER: There is no escape. Don't make me destroy you. You do not yet
realize your importance. You have only begun to discover you power.
Join me and I will complete your training. With our combined strength,
we can end this destructive conflict and bring order to the galaxy.

LUKE: I'll never join you!

VADER: If you only knew the power of the dark side. Obi-Wan never told
you what happened to your father.

LUKE: He told me enough! He told me you killed him.

VADER: No. I am your father.

Shocked, Luke looks at Vader in utter disbelief.

LUKE: No. No. That's not true! That's impossible!

VADER: Search your feelings. You know it to be true.

LUKE: Nooooo! No! No!




WRATH OF KHAN:

KIRK (desperate): Khan, Khan, you've got Genesis...

... but you don't have me! you

were going to kill me, Khan!

You're going to have to come down

here! You're going to have to

come down here!

KHAN: I've done far worse than kill you.

I've hurt you. And I wish to go on

hurting you. I shall leave you,

as you left me - as you left her. Marooned for

all eternity in the center of a dead

planet -Buried alive! Buried alive....


KIRK: Khan! Khan!




Agggghhhhhh! I still can't decide....

Final Round (Round 79)

Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back to WIN

Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan to GO

I voted for Serenity last round because Khan is a classic but I would still rather watch Serenity over it anyday. I'm a so-so Trek fan...was a faithful viewer of TNG, DS9, and Voyager, but I'm no where as dedicated a fan as I am of say Stargate.

[warmbeachbrat]

When it comes right down to it, I would watch both movies over and over. If I were channel surfing and either movie was on, I'd sit and watch it. But to choose....

*sigh* I guess my reasons for Wrath of Khan stated earlier still stand. Empire Strikes Back is a very rare movie--one with heart and soul, wrapped up with a stunning plot, moving dialog, universal appeal and a timelessness unlike so many other sci-fi movies. BUT, Wrath of Khan is also a rare movie that is both literate and entertaining; frightening yet with flashes of much good humor; where the thrust and parry of the two sides is exciting to watch and unpredictable to the last. Where hope is yet born out of defeat (in a different way than Empire). And a sequel can redeem a flawed first movie.

So, with a deeply conflicted heart, I must vote for Wrath of Khan to win and Empire Strikes Back to go (by an ever so slim margin).
