And now, the other day 4 match-up! This one is equally tough! We have...

What is the Most "New York" Movie Ever? (submitted by StrugglingPunk)

vs.

Gore Verbinski (submitted by Mario Freitas and Lauren Damon)

As someone who has now lived in NYC for 11 years, I am now officially qualified to discuss what makes a "New York" movie. I imagine this would be somewhat like the 80s movies video (except not quite as long), defining a set of categories to evaluate the "New Yorkiness" of various New York movies. It's probably the most cinematic city in the world, so there's a lot to discuss there!

But it has some tough competition from ol' Gore Verbinski, one of the true gonzo blockbuster auteurs of the 21st century! This is the guy who made the shockingly great American remake of The Ring! Who won an Oscar for the insane animated western Rango! Who made the fascinating disaster The Lone Ranger! Who made A Cure for Wellness, maybe the single grossest, most unpleasant major studio release of the past decade! And, oh yeah, who also made THE PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN TRILOGY! It's an incredible, varied filmography and there is so much to dig into there. 

And don't forget to vote in today's other match-up: Muppet Cinema vs. Patrick's DCEU / Batman Beyond
