Some tough choices there, meaning I had to vote against some of my faves (TSWLM, LALD, TND) because I liked the other choice just a teensy bit more.

Yes choose one from each matchup and put the choice in bold. The main aim of the first round is to eliminate the Craig films. :wink:

It's lucky we didn't get, say, QOS v Skyfall, then.

How do we decide when round 1 is finished and it's time to move on to round 2?
