| Bullet to the Head | Warm Bodies | WINNER
(1 point per category) |
| Clearest Title | I predict this will be an action movie. | I don’t want to predict what this movie might be about. | Bullet to the Head wins the point for clearest title. |
Best Genre
and Rating | Action
Rated R for strong violence, bloody images, language, some nudity, and brief dug use. | Comedy/Horror
Rated PG-13 for zombie violence and some language. | Two different ratings and genres this week. Loving it. 1/2 point each. |
Best Plot
(in haiku form) | Tough guy has daughter
She’s kidnapped. He gets revenge
With guns and action. | There’s a boy zombie
He falls in love with human.
Gets complicated. | Warm Bodies has an amazing plot. It’s like the plot of Romeo and Juliet and the movie Zombieland. Point. |
| Best Trailer | + Sylvester Stallone is in an action film
- Seems like a generic action film
+ Energetic music in the trailer | + First looked cheesy, but then brilliant
+ Seriously, it’s a zombie/human love story!
+ Some pretty clever and funny moments too | Warm Bodies seems like a great movie, and just in time for Valentine’s Day. Point. |
| Coolest Lead Actor | Sylvester Stallone from Rocky, Rambo, and The Expendables. | Nicholas Hoult from About A Boy and X-Men: First Class. | Sylvester Stallone is an iconic actor. Who is going to stop him from taking this point? |
| Best Cast | Jason Momoa (Conan the Barbarian) and Christian Slater (Interview with the Vampire) | John Malkovich (Con Air) and Dave Franco (21 Jump Street) | About equal quality of casts. Let’s give out another 1/2 point. |
Best Street Cred
For the Production | Director Walter Hill produced all the Alien movies. | Writer and Director Jonathan Levine has also directed 50/50. | And how about yet another 1/2 point each. |
