Round 2
Jul 20 2008, 4:02 PM EDT
Am I the only one that finds it somewhat criminal that The Living Daylights survived Round One? Of course, that's only because it got a lucky draw when it was matched up against Moonraker, but still.

The Round Two matchups are all easy picks for me, except for Thunderball v. OHMSS. That's a tough call. I also favor For Your Eyes Only over You Only Live Twice, but I have a hunch I'm pulling for the underdog on that one.

For me, this was a case of "vote for the one that not as bad as the other".

have any of yall used a similar strategy? which match-ups have you had to vote against a really bad film as opposed to voting for the better film.

I felt that way about Group E -- the luck of the draw on the seeding put my two least favorite films, Moonraker and Living Daylights, in the same group. So I ended up voting for TLD even though I would have liked to see it lose Round One. Do you find this valuable?
