One of these movies must be burned and destroyed - your choice
 
a) The Godfather (1972)
b) Grapes of Wrath (1940)
c) It's A Wonderful Life (1946)
d) Yankee Doodle Dandy (1942)

Which film would you erase from the world? Which is the most expendable?

Yankee Doodle Dandy, never even heard of it.

Yankee Doodle Dandy

Yankee Doodle Dandy.

Never seen YDD but I dont like It's a wonderlife so I'd get rid of that one

We can get rid of the movie Yankee Doodle Dandy. Now getting rid of the song, on the other hand, would make me angry.

DarthVong 12-25-08 12:10 PM

Wonderful life. I hate that movie.

That's not something to brag about.

I gotta go with Grapes of Wrath -- overly preachy and not one of Ford's best.

Yankee Doodie.

Yankee Doodle Dandy, it's not that bad but compared to the other three, it's got no chance.

YDD....although, really, what was the point of this thread?

dhmac 12-25-08 02:13 PM

Can I vote to burn and destroy this thread instead?

Buttmunker 12-25-08 02:21 PM

No. :)

bunkaroo 12-25-08 02:57 PM

The only one I might miss is The Godfather. I guess I don't care much for the classics. :shrug:

Rizor 12-25-08 03:25 PM

I never really gave a shit for Yankee Doodle Dandy so it's the obvious choice.

Giantrobo 12-25-08 03:27 PM

Burn the classics, leave the Porn.

jfoobar 12-25-08 03:36 PM

Call me Scrooge, but I voted for IAWL.

It's the voice. I can't stand the voice. Everything I hear Zuzu Bailey talk I want to yank the wings off of an angel.

chris_sc77 12-25-08 03:38 PM

How could anyone who has actually seen it vote for The Grapes of Wrath ?

rexinnih 12-25-08 03:51 PM

Yankee Doodle Dandy. Seeing public enemy number 1 singing and dancing just aint right.

Buttmunker 12-25-08 04:24 PM

Instead of Yankee, I should have put Jaws instead. Then it might have been more difficult.

I'm surprised at all the Yankee-haters. I was enthralled by that film when I first saw it last Fourth of July. The songs, the dance-moves....very inspiring.

superdeluxe 12-25-08 04:26 PM

yankee doodie.

My Other Self 12-25-08 04:35 PM

I think we all should be able to see the movies listed before making a decision. Yankee Doodle Dandy is a classic..

But It's a Wonderful Life bugs the shit out of me. Send it to hell!

cranberries fan 12-25-08 04:37 PM

None of them this sick and wrong to think that anyone would want classics like these flims to be burned.

You just answered your own question. You put a musical up against 3 other non-musicals and 9 times out 10 the musical will get the axe.

leacha 12-25-08 06:47 PM

Yankee Doodle Dandy. I'm not a fan of dancing or singing.
