Here we are with Part 3 of the Second Round. Part 1 really engaged voters while Part 2 did not. I sort of feel like this bracket will be somewhere in between.

2001 v Rocky was definitely the hardest to choose. Both movies are fine representatives of their genres.

Alien vs. Braveheart was the tough one for me.
I went with which movie would I watch if they both came on tv at the same time. So, Braveheart.

Really worried for BTTF in the next round.

Alien vs. Braveheart was pretty much 50/50 for me. Looks like the votes are aligned with that thinking.

Back to the Future on an insane 104-3 run right now.

Being objective, Alien versus Braveheart was the toughest choice so far. But my disdain for Mel Gibson made it easy.

Good Will Hunting getting smoked is sad

Some Like it Hot should be doing MUCH better!

Wow some brutal matchups here.

Strangely, i had exactly the opposite reaction: a clear victor for me in every matchup (not necessarily the majority view in a couple of cases, but I had no indecision on any of them)

Going to be some ridiculously difficult decisions in this bracket next round.

Spirited Away probably deserves better than the 33 vote margin it is currently looking at, but I don't know how many 2nd round movies it would have beaten.

+1 except that I didn't care about the movies in the 2nd and 3rd matchups, the rest were easy.

Had to recuse myself from Star Wars-Good Will. Couldn't figure out which I liked more.

Some Like it Hot should be doing MUCH better!

To be fair, Ive never seen either movie, so I non-voted.
