Thank you again for the numbers Arabchanter.
Game 8 was a fecking tragedy. Gremlins out in the first round! It's a fix! Shite competition anyway! So while I dry my eyes, Bill and Ted most truimphantly air guitar their way through to the next round as overwhelming winners. Going through in the unseeded pot, since they tied on 3 votes each but reached the 3 votes first, and proving they are indeed 'The Untouchables' as well as providing this competition with it's first real shock as Gremlins gets unceremoniously booted out. Along with Friday the 13th, but nobody gives a fuck about that.

I find Emilio Estevez and Charlie Sheen really watchable for some reason in the 80's and early 90's. Not a patch on their father Martin Sheen though.
Could care less about Batman and Lethal Weapon to be honest. Trading Places is good fun to watch but will stick with, and vote for Young Guns

Great round, but it has got to be Trading Places. One of my top 10 films ever. Would like to see Lethal Weapon go through as well.

Trading Places, for two reasons....
1) Eddie Murphy is really funny.
2) So is Dan Aykroyd
Offline
Batman
Sensational portrayal of The Joker by Jack Nicholson, "This Town needs an enema!";
AND a brilliant Soundtrack by Prince (and dance moves by Nicholson)

I was gonna use that clip Bob but I thought I better keep it clean.
Eddie Murphy was on fire in the 80's. And so was Richard Pryor, literally
