It's a Wonderful Life is one of those oldies that really lived up to the hype when I watched it. I didn't care about it being an old film or in black and white. It's just that good.

ive enver really seen either but ill go the classic because ive never heard of tangerine

Tangerine is really fucking good but I don't imagine many have seen it so I wouldn't expect it to go far lol And It's a Wonderful Life is one of my top films of all time so it's getting my vote anyway

It's A Wonderful Life is boring.

Most of my nominations were fairly obscure, Tangerine included. I didn't expect them to get far but hopefully someone will see it on the list, give it a watch and enjoy it. That's all I can hope for.

Tangerine gets my vote because it's not the version of It's A Wonderful Life we all wanted to see

 

[Comrade Khan]

fuck it, ill watch both before friday and give a vote change if i feel its better

 

[Marty McFourth]

Tangerine is definitely worth watching, I'm glad it made it. I didn't think to vote for it, so I'm glad somebody else did.

I went for the classic, but it was pretty close.

I nominated tangerine and it's one of my favorite films Christmas or not. Period. I'd recommend to anyone that hasn't seen it.
