I'm calling early results for the two play-in polls: Absolute Power and The Conversation have advanced.

[Pogo]

I this supposed to be best movie of the two or best Hackman of the two?

It's about Gene Hackman's roles.

I accept that separating the two is difficult.

[TroutMan]

I feel bad I'm not participating, but I think I've seen a total of three of his movies. I feel like such a philistine.

Dammit, I just saw that this morning existed! I'll try to catch up

[Die Capacitrix]

Due to enjoying The Grand Budhapest Hotel a few weeks ago, and this megapoll, we watched The Royal Tenenbaums.

Meh.

[What Exit?]

@Zeener Diode, will this megapoll continue?

[Zeener Diode]

Sorry I've been out of town and cell service was spotty at best.

I'll get to setting up the next round later today or tomorrow. I'm still on the road (but with better service).

No problem, I was just hoping this was still happening.
