Final 4 is here and we nearly had favorites Dark Knight and Return Of The King both upset but the 3rd installment of the LOTR trilogy was able to fight another day.  You know what to do

Man all these match ups have people dying in the movies. lol, I wonder why

all really good movies.

The Departed over No Country for Old Men, Both like i said are great movies, BUT, like i said Bardem was the movie, but in The Departed it was supported by everybody, Nicholson, DiCaprio, Wahlberg, Baldwin etc. so that is why it gets my vote.

Return of the King over the Gladiator, it is a fun matchup. The great movie of a man and revenge vs the conclusion of a great trilogy. but i support my pick. 11/11

If Gladiator doesn't win this GP (out of what is left)... it would be a travesty.  It is obviously the best movie out of the bunch imho.

Departed is a good movie, but No Country for Old Men is one of the most underrated movies ever, in my humble opinion. Very intense story with a phenomenal cast. Departed is great also, but No Country for Old Men is better, just slightly, but still better nonetheless.

No Country For Old Men is the best movie out of all of these four, why it's not winning its matchup Idfk.

  • Gladiator
  • No Country For Oldmen
  • The Departed
  • LOTR:  The Return of the King.

That is how I rank the final 4.

@Kalibo, I agree except for I would narrowly put No Country For Old Men ahead of Gladiator. Those 2 are pretty even for me though.
