There will be 10 groups of 50 for iconic movie poll. This one is the "traditional demigod group", or what I call "Beavis and Butthead group", so I'll pick the 5 that are the "least pathetic".
You can pick up to 5. The five with the most votes by due date will advance with others for the final 50. In the event of ties that create a tie that brings 6th place or less in a tie for 4th or 5th, then none of those tying will be advanced. If they tie for 3rd, then I'll hold a quick run off in this thread for advancement into the next phase. This is ICONIC movies, not necessarily good ones. Movies with iconic scenes, iconic lines, iconic heroes, and so forth. That in itself makes more than the 500 movies, so some movies are omitted. However, the most iconic are included into 10 groups that present an ideal cross section.
This group is the most Hollywood group of the ten, based on the traditional Greek demigod hero or villain, as the case may be. These movies present the myth of some people being gods, some demigods, some one quarter demigods, some just cannon fodder. This is the grouping that the mobsters and elitists want all movies to be.
"Contrived" situations and events also figure in this grouping, when the contrivance is "demigod" based. These are the most Hollywood theme movies for sure, that fit into "iconic" category, either by scenes, stills, lines, quotes, or characters.

The Godfather The Godfather II No Country For Old Men The Good the Bad and the Ugly Warlock 1959 - not actually in my top 5 but I've got a feeling it'll go voteless and it's too good to deserve that

A bump. There won't be many bumps, maybe even no more, before the 2-4-20 final tally.
