The Greatest Movie Franchises of All Time - Elite 8

Links to preceding threads:


You can view the entire tournament bracket here as we go along, but here's the current state:



Please vote for the franchise in each pair that you feel is most deserving of being in consideration for the Greatest Movie Franchise of All Time. I'll put one of these up every day or two as we go along. So vote!

Possible Concerns and Responses:
  1. A franchise I like isn't on the list! Too bad. Nominations are closed. This is just a fun offseason diversion, but feel free to complain in the thread if it will make you feel better.
  2. There's something on the list that I don't even think is a franchise! Don't vote for it.
  3. There's something on the list that I don't recognize. Yeah, there are a few that I don't recognize either. If you feel generous, look it up and determine if you think it's worthy. Or just don't vote for it. Either option is allowed.
  4. The seeding seems weird (or there's something I have no idea how it got in there). The seeding is based on total estimated tickets from Box Office Mojo, but some older franchises were randomly seeded since we don't have any data available about their ticket sales. Again, if you don't feel something is deserving, don't vote for it!

I for one have seen Part III numerous times and while I agree it wasn't near as good as the other two I thought it was still an important piece to the franchise in showing Michael wrestling with his demons.

I'm all about the unedited version of the first one where we get to see Apollonia's titties.

There's also a demographic skew to this place obviously. If you did this same contest among a bunch of 20-30 year olds, there's no way in hell the Godfather is still in it, and Harry Potter is a favorite to win it all.

It is what it is. I'm just enjoying the slight chaos as a mild offseason distraction.
While your explanation is valid/true you can't deny that this place is full of contrarians who would argue with a Stop sign if it brought them pleasure.

Yea, except you need to substitute Captain America for the guy with the sword. That would be accurate.

In hindsight I would probably concur that 2 is good and 3 stunk it up.

Tough choices here. I went with;
Indy over MCU. This was my toughest choice, as I have really enjoyed the MCU franchise. Honestly, I probably made my choice based on nostalgia. I'm good with whichever choice wins

Die-hard over Bond. Bond is good, don't get me wrong. But I just find Die-hard more to my liking.

Star Wars over X-Men. I can't wait for each new Star Wars movie to come out. When I hear a new X-Men is out, I'm thinking cool. I want to see it, but I'm not excited like I am for Star Wars.

Godfather over LOTR. It's the Godfather. Nuff said.

What time will tell is that the MCU is as unstoppable as the Hulk when rampaging; Thor with Stormbreaker in his hands and righteous anger in his eyes; Rocket when he has a chance to steal someone's prosthetic limb....

When voting for LOTR, I've included all 3 Hobbit movies in my decision.

Without the Hobbit trilogy, I probably would've gone with the Godfather.

Listen, I'm a HUGE fan of Indy, but let's face it, there's one great movie, one damn good, fun, movie, and the rest is crap.

MCU vs the Indy series is like Thor vs. Hawkeye. I mean, Hawkeye is fine and all, but let's be serious...

The Godfather gave us two of the greatest and most influential films in the American canon while LOTR gave us more of the same CGI. CP votes LOTR, of course.

I blame Diane Keaton. Bitch should have sprouted wings and horns or something.
