    Easiest choice of the round.

    Parasite to raise the banner!

    I'm afraid your run ends here, Fellowship, but I'll vote for you one more time, just for good measure. I love Parasite, but I think Bong has done better (Snowpiercer). Fellowship, on the other hand, is a singular achievement, and a piece of the greatest that fantasy film-making has ever seen.

    Oh nooo.

    I have to go for the epic, rousing, fantasy journey over the gripping, perfect 120 minute dose of harsh reality. Only Mr Samwise Gamgee can carry us safely through the hellscape that is Filmspotting madness.

    Parasite is the better film on multiple fronts. But life is lesser without The Lord of the Rings films in it. Like Gollum, I'm ready to fall into the pits of Mount Doom while clutching it, only to watch it be destroyed as I melt in the liquid hot magma.

    This matchup, wow. I've long held the Lord of the Rings trilogy as a beloved benchmark in the tension of cinematic adaptations and the logistics of filmmaking, it tells a sweeping story incredibly faithfully across three different movies and a filmmaking process that permanently changed the landscape of New Zealand. The films themselves achieved far more than I thought possible considering the groundbreaking way it was shot, but in the streaming era, peak TV, it shows that there is another medium, possibly better suited and that perhaps some of the flaws of the trilogy would not exist if it were made today (yes, I am still mad about Tom Bombadil). So without the logistics aspect, the revolution of the way it was made, just film to film, I have to vote for Parasite here, which, cinematically and as a story of its time and now for all time, is operating at a much higher level than Lord of the Rings, especially if it gets reduced to just Fellowship of the Ring. A very interesting method for re-evaluating both films, but in that gut-wrenching way that only happens in the Madness.

    No. Just no. How dare you.
