donny I'm changing my vote to decades because of this argument. ...that was an argument in favor of the performances of the 2010s. That we would go from action movies of the 2010s to the franchise tournament to performances of the 2010s. Continuity be damned!

Alright, the poll is closed, and as you can see, Battle of the Decades wins in a tight one. I was personally wanting to see Performances of the Decade, but that can wait.
You know the next 2 tournaments. Good shit.
I'll be back shortly with details on Battle of the Decades.

Alright, folks, time for a new tournament, which again is Battle of the Decades. The format will remain the same format you all know and love, but I wanted to slightly change things up by getting some help. I decided to reach out to 4 users from the Coming Soon boards, who in turn will help me select the movies we are about to see. The gist of Battle of the Decades is this: I have chosen 4 different decades and placed each decade accordingly in their own region. As is the case with the previous installments, we will have 64 entries, but as I alluded to earlier, this time around we will have 4 different users working in teams of 2 representing their own decades. What will then happen is the winners from each decade will meet in the Final Four, assuring both teams that at least one of their selections will be in the Championship match. I want to have some fun with this and make it somewhat of a friendly competition, and this is where our 4 users come in. What's fun for me, is up until this point, our participants only knew who their teammate was and what decade's they were responsible for. Who their competition was and the decades they had will now be revealed. So now, with out further ado, I will announce our 4 participants and the decades they represent. Team 1: Dracula and PG Cooper Decades: 1950's and 1990's Team 2:Doomsday and SnoBorderZero Decades: 1960's and 1980'S
There you have it, folks. One participant from each team will make in to the Championship match for total dominance. As it stand's currently, I'm working on trying to maybe award our winner with a prize, but I haven't gotten very far with that.
Stay tuned, folks, and thank you for the continued support.

This'll be very easy indeed.
