The choice between my collection and RyoHazuki comes down to one preference: color versus black and white. Yes, that is right, I said it. I certainly respect black and white (I even have one in my collection: Rashomon), but Ryo simply has too much. Eraserhead: black and white. Rules of the Game: black and white. To Kill a Mockingbird: black and white. Band of Brothers: muted tones. Schindler's List: black and white (and pink). I mean, the only dvd he has that has vibrant colors is an animated movie!

Sarcasm, people! I love B & W films; almost picked Psycho too before someone beat me to it. But it looks like we are back in action after the downtime. Not much time left.......

Preliminary Results
1. jfrost vs. Franchot (tie - 26 each)
2. ryuryu2949 (27 votes) wins over RyoHazuki (24 votes)
3. cleaver (31 votes) wins over dollfins1 (21 votes)
4. slop101 (34 votes) wins over William Fuld (18 votes)
I'm going to do a recount on #1 because it's a tie. I'm going to do a recount on #2 because the results don't total up to 52 as expected, and because the names are similar so I'm sure I screwed something up.
I don't think a recount is necessary for #3 or #4.

Groucho, I will try this again, but one count had me winning 27-26 (I guess that is impossible) and another had it tied at 26. I will do another count though.

I found a "lost" post. spartanstew quoted somebody else's post and replied "ditto." So I didn't see his votes. Adding those in, I get
ryuryu2949 - 26 votes
RyoHazuki - 27 votes
This looks correct to me. Any objections?
(I won't allowed "quoted" votes in the next round)

Extending the deadline seems a bit ridiculous. Sure it was close but so were previous rounds and this one went on the longest amount of time and had the most amount of votes of any round.

RyoHazuki, congratulations on your victory. You have an outstanding collection. I wish you great success with the remainder of the competition.
P.S.- please tell me more about Yakuza Papers, I am intrigued.
