Calvert28 Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 Apocalypse Now was the better movie. But in terms of action and adventure you can't beat Bruce Lee's best film. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozzy Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 Enter the Dragon all the way on this one. That mirror fight scene is one of the best action fight scenes in any film, sure is some cheesy parts in it but arguably none of the other nominees have much action in them at all.

Uncle Buck Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 Surprisingly, I don't think I nominated Apocalypse Now, but ended up voting for it. Although Bruce Lee was a genius of martial arts, his movies were pretty cheesy and not very well made, IMO. I did nominate Deliverance, but when really thinking about it, there is no doubt that Apocalypse Now was the superior movie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thrILL! Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 Star Wars didn't make the cut? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THE DUKE Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 Man, rough decade for the genre compared to the 80's and 90's. I guess i'll go with Enter the Dragon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THE DUKE Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 Was looking over the 60's noms and saw that High Plains Drifter was 1973, can't believe that was overlooked. I'd take that over any of these 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 Apocalypse Now easily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess people dig martial arts movies over three classics of cinema history. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scar988 Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 Flipped a coin betwen Apocalypse now and Enter the Dragon. And voted EtD. But both are exceptional. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THE DUKE Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 Apocalypse Now is phenomenal film making, but I just don't really care for the movie that much. Hard to vote for a movie I feel 'meh' about at the end of the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 Apocalypse Now is one of my top 5 favorite movies of all time. Doesn't hurt that I also really like Joseph Conrad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
