Better Movie #34
 

Father to a murdered son, husband to a murdered wife, loser to a better movie. Gladiator goes down at the hands of Taxi Driver. Will Scorsese and De Niro claim their second spot in the Hall of Fame?

In order to do that, they'll have to survive the deadly, razor sharp wit of a British secret agent.

And as always, tell us why you voted the way you did.

I just don't enjoy a lot of the Bond movies anymore.

No, I didn't vote for you, Dr.

Taxi Driver has a lot more to offer than a Bond adventure. Granted, it's a very good Bond adventure, but not better than Taxi Driver.

Never seen Taxi Driver.

Not even nearly a contest this one. Bond films are just Bond films.

Dr. No.

Actually I don't like either film, but thought DN would need a bit of help.

Taxi Driver. Fantastic movie. Never really got into the James Bond series.

Same here.

"You talking to me?"

Not really a Bond fan so Taxi Driver again for me.

I voted yes for dr. no
