Welcome to the inaugural round of voting for the Sherdog Movie Club!​

All right, guys. Here we go.

I've got 10 movies here. If you're not familiar with the movie, look it up and see if it sounds interesting! Some I picked, while some were suggested by other members. If you suggested a movie and you don't see it in the list, it's because I didn't find it on Netflix.

As I've mentioned a few times now, the Netflix thing is only for this week so don't worry about it.

Some of these films I've seen, some I haven't, and that will probably be the case with you as well. Some are more mainstream, some less so. Some are narrative films, some are documentaries.

The discussion thread will go up on WEDNESDAY. If you can't get to the movie between now and then, just get to it when you can and join us when you can.

Here's what we're working with:

Valhalla Rising
Unforgiven
Prescription Thugs
Running Man
Team Foxcatcher
There Will Be Blood
Bronson
Melancholia
The Act of Killing
Bravehart



UPDATE: It's Official!​


Adjusted for non-member sabotage, here's the final tally. . .


Valhalla Rising - 10 votes

Running Man - 5 votes
There Will be Blood - 3 votes
Bronson - 3 votes
Prescription Thugs - 2 votes
Melancholia - 2 votes
Unforgiven - 1 vote
Team Foxcatcher - 1 vote
The Act of Killing - 1 vote
Braveheart - 0 votes

Poll up. One vote per user, and you can only see the results when you vote. That way you aren't influenced by other posters' votes when you pick the movie you think the Sherdog Movie Club should watch.

And let the poll speak for itself, if you can. No need to post what movie you're voting on. If someone comes into the thread and sees 15 posts saying "The Little Mermaid", they may go along with that just to be a part of the majority.
 
Not sure what this is, but one of my favorite movies I found through Netflix was Snowpiercer. Recommend it 100%
 
Good list

I wont post what I voted for

Good luck everyone

Had to pick one of my favorite movies of all time, Braveheart. I know it probably wont be the most popular, but it has everything you want in a manly movie. Unforgiven was also a damn good movie.

Edit: I may have fucked this game/thing up by not reading. Either way, I HIGHLY recommend Bravehart. hell, I will watch it gain....
 
Also, @shadow_priest_x, if you want to post a little something about each movie in the OP, that may be helpful for the members who aren't familiar with some of the choices. You know, like year of release, genre, director, main actor or two, and length. That kind of thing.

I mean you could link each title to the movie's IMDB page, but that may tell people too much about the movie. Rating is something I wouldn't want newcomers to movies to see, because if they see that one of the movies is only a 5.5/10 and the rest are 7 or above, they maybe unlikely to pick that one because other people don't like it.

Herd mentality, yo.

Maybe I'll link to the IMDB page.

I was just trying to get the list up as soon as possible.
 
Team Foxcatcher is the movie 'Foxcatcher' right? not some documentary?

Oh yeah, I'm looking to the future with this kind of thing. This was a short notice one if we're going to watch and discuss the movie by wednesday, but we gotta start somewhere.
 
Also, if I were a betting man (which I'm not), I'd bet that Ben Richards would first select The Running Man.
 
Well I almost voted for one of my favorite movies and if you've seen it you know what it is but I went in a different direction. All great movies on that list though
 
thanks for the clarification. Voted thinking it was the movie but would still watch the documentary about it.
 
I motion that in the event of a tie on the poll, @shadow_priest_x is the tiebreaker. He can decide what movie we watch if vote tallies for movies are even. He can do it by coin flip, by if he voted for one of the remaining movies, or however he sees fit really.

Anyone have any other thoughts on a tiebreaker?

I'm no doctor but that's exactly the reason you shouldn't have picked it, in my opinion.

I'm no teevee science officer, but I didn't feel safe outside of my comfort zone.
Don't trigger me, my cinematic ignorance syndrome is trouble

But it's just my opinion, you can vote for whatever movie you would like. Well, providing it's on the list.
