Regels:
Iedere battle zal worden uitgevochten tussen twee deelnemers, waarop gestemd kan worden. De regels die, zoals gewoonlijk, voor elke battle gelden:
- Je stemt door de titel van de film dikgedrukt weer te geven. Stemmen die niet dikgedrukt zijn, worden niet geteld.
- Elke battle duurt 48 uur (de halve en hele finale zelfs 72 uur) vanaf het moment dat deze gepost zijn. Een stem na deze 48 uur wordt niet geteld.
- Posters die pas vanaf vandaag geregistreerd zijn, mogen in principe niet meestemmen. Uitzonderingen kunnen gemaakt worden maar alleen wanneer de betreffende posters elders hebben bewezen serieus aan deze battle deel te kunnen nemen
- Je mag alleen stemmen als je beide films gezien hebt!
- Bij een gelijkspel beslis ik door een muntje op te gooien
- Wanneer er onduidelijkheden zijn dan beslis ik, waarbij ik plechtig beloof zo rechtvaardig mogelijk op te treden.
Dan zijn er nog enkele verzoeken van mijn kant:
- Post alsjeblieft niet als je niet kunt stemmen. Posts als "ik zou wel willen stemmen maar die ene heb ik niet gezien" zijn alleen maar vervelend.
- Het is niet verplicht maar battles worden wel leuker als je een degelijke motivatie geeft voor je keuze.
- Als je niet zult kunnen stemmen en iemand wil machtigen, post het dan even hier.

Clerks
Just Because They Serve You... Doesn't Mean They Like You.
Review volgens allmovieguide.com:
"When Dante Hicks (Brian O'Halloran) is reluctantly put in charge of the Quick Stop market on his day off, he tries, though half-heartedly, to perform his minimum-wage duties as efficiently as possible. This gets tough amidst the on-going fight with his girlfriend, Veronica (Marilyn Ghigliotti), and his attempt to get back together with his ex-girlfriend, Caitlyn Bree (Lisa Spoonhauer). Meanwhile, his friend and alter ego Randall (Jeff Anderson) is working behind the counter of the adjacent video store -- at least when he feels like it. Randall's unabashed disdain of his place of employment, a long with his self-admitted hatred towards its customers is a sharp contrast to Dante's feeble attempts at the niceties of customer service. Much of the film consists of Randall and Dante's criticism of their customers, their lives, and the world in general. Clerks, filmed in black-and-white on a budget of only $27,000, began the career of writer director Kevin Smith, who would go on to make Mallrats (1995), Chasing Amy (1997), Dogma (1999), and Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back (2001)."

Annie Hall
A nervous romance.
Review volgens allmovieguide.com:
"Woody Allen's romantic comedy of the Me Decade follows the up and down relationship of two mismatched New York neurotics. Jewish comedy writer Alvy Singer (Allen) ponders the modern quest for love and his past romance with tightly-wound WASP singer Annie Hall (Diane Keaton, née Diane Hall). The twice-divorced Alvy knows that it's not easy to find a mate when the options include pretentious New York intellectuals and lifestyle-obsessed Rolling Stone writers, but la-di-dah-ing Annie seems different. Along the rocky road of their coupling, Allen/Alvy weigh in on such topics as endless therapy, movies vs. TV, the absurdity of dating rituals, anti-Semitism, drugs, and, in one of the best set pieces, repressed Midwestern WASP insanity vs. crazy Brooklyn Jewish boisterousness. Annie wants to move to Los Angeles to find that fame that finally does in the relationship -- but not before Alvy gets in a few digs at vacuous, mantra-fixated California. Originally entitled Anhedonia (the inability to enjoy oneself), Annie Hall blended the slapstick and fantasy from such earlier Allen films as Sleeper (1973) and Bananas (1971) with the more autobiographical musings of his stand-up and written comedy, using an array of such movie techniques as talking heads, splitscreens, and subtitles. Within these gleeful formal experiments and sight gags, Allen and co-writer Marshall Brickman skewered 1970s solipsism, reversing the happy marriage of opposites found in classic screwball comedies. Hailed as Allen's most mature and personal film, Annie Hall beat out Star Wars for Best Picture and also won Oscars for Allen as director and writer and for Keaton as Best Actress; audiences enthusiastically responded to Allen's take on contemporary love and turned Keaton's rumpled menswear into a fashion trend."
