In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran are here to talk about a frustrating 2 points dropped at Crystal Palace. They then discuss the regeneration of Old Trafford. Finally, Nik is joined by special guest Michael Statham from the Football Oranje podcast - who gives us a more in depth look at our EL opposition FC Twente, and then runs through the (many) Dutch connections currently at United.
1. Inglourious Basterds
2. Braveheart
3. 3.10 to Yuma (2007)
4. Django Unchained
5. The Quick and the Dead
Inglourious Basterds is fantastic -Tarantino's best film for me.
No love for Braveheart? Nobody else?
Pleasantly surprised by the other votes for 3.10 to Yuma in particular - didn't expect others to regard it as highly as I do.

No worries, @Mr Pigeon has yet to vote.
Because it isn't very good would be my guess.
1. Inglorious Basterds
2. Dunkirk
3. Django Unchained
4. True Grit
5. Black Hawk Down
I visited plantation where Django Unchained was filmed. It feels so heavy there. I can't even begin to imagine the horrors that transpired there.

You might get a kick out of watching Apocalypse Now for the first time now and hear some iconic lines that often get referenced.
“The horror…the horror.”
”I love the smell of napalm in the morning... It smelled like, victory.“
”Terminate, with extreme prejudice.”
As I began reading this thread there was a rush of hope that it might make it through to the next round, but that quickly dissipated as the votes dried up.
Naturally, I expected this round to be dominated by older classics but Django and Inglourious may have a chance.
Thought Braveheart would do better though...
Is Bone Tomahawk really a western?
Of course it is. So is Hell or High Water.
Wish more would vote for this
I've heard this before.
1. Waterloo
2. Master and Commander
3. Saving Private Ryan
4. A Bridge Too Far
5. Ran

Redcafe film nerds trying to pick 5 films -
You must be really looking forward to the next round?
Surprised at the amount of votes that Inglourious Basterds is getting. It was ok, but classic QT more style over substance.
I didn’t list it, but it has a villain so surprisingly good Tarantino went out of his way to feature him later and some legendary scenes. The dairy farmer and the bar scene are classics.
Agree that Hans Landa / Christophe Waltz was incredible. And yes they’re the two stand out scenes for me too.
However, I didn’t like the ending and I felt certain parts were too gimmicky. It doesn’t spring to mind when I think of best war movies I’ve seen (although it is a good movie, I’ll recant my previous rating of it being ‘ok’).
I'm surprised Tarantino hasn't popped up more. The guy pretty much takes the best moments from other films and brings them into the mainstream.
A bit of a shit film though
If this film doesn't win for this one scene then cinema is truly dead
If Saving Private Ryan(Good opening scene following by 2 hours 30 minutes of sicko Spielberg US war propaganda!)ends up in the top 5, then there’s no reason why a dog shit film like Never Ending Story can’t also succeed.
1. Brotherhood (Taegukgi)
2. The Good, The Bad and The Weird.
3. Saving Private Ryan
4. Full Metal Jacket
5. Blazing Saddles
2. The Good, The Bad and The Weird.
3. Saving Private Ryan
4. Full Metal Jacket

Excellent choice
Ahh, I see you are also a man of culture.
Was strongly considering this one, but left it for comedy because with my love of Westerns there wasn’t much room.
Also doing the same with Dr. Strangelove but that’s more because I don’t think it fits here.
I think all my thriller choices will be world cinema
Honestly, it'll be tough for me to have any non-asian movies in that category.
Actually Se7en might need to be there for me. Very good movie but the other 4 are all Asian.
Not gonna lie, after I posted Se7en came to my mind as needing in.
I Saw The Devil
A Bittersweet Life
New World
Parasite
Infernal Affairs
The Wailing
Forgotten
Just off top of my head
We're clearly the same person.
I reckon Memories of Murder and I Saw The Devil.
