Easiest 4 v 5 match up so far.

X2 is still my fav of the series.

 

[GOATeric14berry]

This one is hard idk who to vote for

 

[CagleMtnVol]

I like X2 but I went with Amazing Spider-Man. I really love that film and the way it rebooted the franchise just works. It blew away everything from the Raimi/Maguire films.

Well other than those scenes with Kirsten Dunst in the rain!

Same here.

Also spent more time in high school instead of the short amount.

Tight race

 

[BadJerry20]

It should be tied I accidentally voted the wrong movie.

 

[vader]

If 95 Vol Alum is OK with it, I have the power to change the number of votes. I will defer to his call since he started the poll, though.

 

[BadJerry20]

I accidentally got my X-Men movies mixed up, I was thinking of the Last Stand when I voted. If not, no worries I should have been paying attention.

 

[CagleMtnVol]

That many people think X2 is better than Amazing Spider-Man?

ASM is one of the top 5 Marvel comic based films! IMO

Not sure I can recall a super villain getting so damn close to killing the super hero.
Also a superb cliffhanger with the man in the shadows.

 

[GOATeric14berry]

This is the best spider man movie imo

Paging 95 lol

Paging 95 lol

At this point, yours is the swing vote. X2 now feels great sympathy for Al Gore circa 2000.

I live in one of the potential "purge" areas, this might be the last important thing I do with my life. Lol

Change it.

 

[Weezer]

Change it.

Feels like voter fraud. I'm not sure I can continue to be involved in such a wanton abuse of democracy. I would expect better from a pudgy Swede-Korean. You disappoint me.

 

[vader]

Change it.

Presto

 

[95 Vol Alum]

Thanks.
