    Greatest Animated Villain - Round 2

    Frollo Zig-Zag: Spooky though The Headless Horseman may be, I have to go with the guy who talks exclusively in rhymes and is voiced by Vincent Price in this match. The Headless Horseman Elecman.EXE

    What Are You Reading? (Vol. III)

    I'm almost done with The Spy Who Came In From The Cold by John Le Carré. Great book, that's right up there with Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy as far as Le Carré novels go. If you like espionage-novels, than this is one of the classics of the genre and a must-read.

    Greatest Animated Villain - Round 2

    An all-anime villain match with two Osamu Tezuka characters in it? This is going to be tough. 1. Rock 2. Eneru 3. Lust: As much as I prefer Brotherhood/The Manga, I do think Lust was better in the first anime, mostly because the creators of that show gave her a personality beyond evil femme...

    Greatest Film Ever!

    TB: Rififi. It's one of those movies that does everything right. As for the current matches, I'm afraid I have to pass.

    Greatest Film Ever!

    Agreed, one of my favorite movie scenes. Rififi is the only one of these movies I've seen in either match, so I'm only voting to give it my support. The other movies in match 5 are ranked in the order I want to watch them (assuming I'd watch them at all): Match 5: 1. Rififi 2. On the...
