Here’s my nominees that I will post below. This should serve as an example for how everyone’s nominations should look:
1. The Prestige (3 votes)
2. No Country For Old Men (2 votes)
3. There Will Be Blood (1 vote)
I don't know if Closer (2004) meets the criteria (3.49 ~ 3.5). If it does:
1. In the Mood for Love (2000)
2. Closer (2004)
3. Brokeback Mountain (2005)
If it doesn't :
1. In the Mood for Love (2000)
2. Brokeback Mountain (2005)
3. City of God (2002)
It just prevents unfair matchups in case it ever actually does make it to the actual tournament. There’s also plenty of films between 50K and 100K views that I wouldn’t say are blockbusters and there are plenty of films over that threshold that aren’t blockbusters either.
1. Mulholland Drive ( 2001) - 3 votes
2. The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford (2007) - 2 Votes
3. There Will Be Blood (2007) - 1 Vote
1. Hot Fuzz (3 votes)
2. The Man From Earth (2 votes)
3. Eastern Promises (1 vote)
Summer Wars would've been in my top 3, but it has just under 50k views.
1. City of God(3 votes)
2. Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith(2 votes)
3. Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan (1 vote)
1. Mulholland Drive (3 points)
2. In the Mood for Love (2 points)
3. Rachel Getting Married (1 point)
So many movies I'd want to rewatch but going with my gut on #3.
I'm gonna add some ones I want in the mix and haven't seen yet since most favorites are already nominated (Eternal Sunshine, Synecdoche, Yi Yi, Before Sunset, Memories of Murder)

> 50K views Would be curious to know how much movie does it concerns. Doesn't it just means blockbusters, basically?
