Rd. 1: Lawrence of Arabia vs. Scarface ('83)

[mbw]

wow really close!  Scarface should win on principal alone.  :roll:

You mean it's lack thereof?
Scarface is a tedious movie about a guy that isn't even likable.

and its so overacted by pacino that its laughable.

I've never seen Lawrence of Arabia, so I think I'm going to watch it tomorrow and make my vote then.

Although I think Scarface is pretty good movie, I have always felt like it was indeed a bit overrated.

Love that one moonlit desert scene from Lawrence.

I like Scarface's soundtrack.

i find it suspicious that no one who voted for scarface is speaking up about it.
or telling.

My guess is that a good portion of the Scarface voters have never seen Lawrence of Arabia.

Interesting fact about Lawrence of Arabia: there are no women with credited speaking roles.

[sls.stormyrider]

there's a reason for that.

women or no women, laurence of Arabia was a classic.
easiest decision so far

A tie...interesting

[cactusfan]

looks like order is being restored in the universe...Lawrence pulls ahead!

now, if it was up against Howard Hawks's '32 version of Scarface, we'd at least have something to argue about. that movie is badass.

I voted Scarface.

I tried watching Lawrence of Arabia a couple of times. About as interesting as TTE.
