Pulp would have a serious leg up on 99% of movies. Unfortunately, Ghostbusters edges it out in that elite group for me.

Ghostbusters is good but Pulp Fiction is better. But comparing those 2 movies sorta feels like comparing something like Iron Man with the Shining.

That's the point, dronepool. Pulp Fiction would dominate pretty much any similar movie and Ghostbusters would destroy pretty much any action/comedy movie. But when put up against each other it requires you to really think about what grabbed you in each film and made it special.

I think Pulp Fiction is good, but not what it's made out to be. It's clever, but at the same time it's self-indulgent, and that's exactly what I hate about Tarantino. Sometimes I just need him to get to a point.

Yeah, Pulp Fiction wasn't as good as everyone makes it out to be.
Ghostbusters wins this for me. |

Pulp Fiction was amazing, but Ghostbusters left a legacy. Easily one of my favourite films of all time, and has been pretty much since I was born.

Pulp Fiction is great, but it's something that you kind of have to be in the mood for. Ghostbusters is great and I could watch it every day.
Ghostbusters. |

Going with Pulp Fiction on this. Ghostbusters is a fun movie and immensely entertaining, but Pulp Fiction is that once in a generation film that encompasses everything great about movies. And that's true regardless of what you think about Tarantino.

It's still early but yeah I'm a little surprised. I think it probably has to do with the fact that Ghostbusters appeals to everyone.
Jeritron brought up last night that people will associate Ghostbusters with their childhood which also adds a lot of extra nostalgia points. |

I think Ghostbusters stands out for it's incredible originality. The absurdity of it really leads to some great humor, and the cast is perfect to get the most out of situations comedically.
That isn't to say Pulp Fiction isn't as well. |

Interesting to note that both these films achieved great success without the use of a hot actress.

I've always found that Pulp Fictions only flaw is the copy cat movies that followed it's success, like I hate Boondock Saints, Guy Ritchie, Suicide Kings etc. Ghostbusters ony the other hand is kinda inimitable. BUT! i'm not going to let that interfere with my voting, so i'm going to go with Pulp Fiction.

Really tough choice, but I'm gonna have to give my vote to Pulp Fiction, if only because it was the movie that turned me into a movie-geek. Ghostbusters is still damn awesome, though.

All tied up. A pretty good start to the Better Movie competition.
Need more voters though. Gotta get the word out to the masses. |

Don't get me wrong, there aren't many films I would vote for over Pulp Fiction. It was definitely more influential in terms of the film industry. It just seems to me that Ghostbusters is more ingrained in the consciousness of pop culture. But, as has been mentioned, this could just seem to be for me due to growing up with Ghostbusters in the 80's and the nostalgia factor, who knows.

One of the great tings about Ghostbusters is that I'll be able to show it to my kids when the time comes and it will be just as great to them as it was to me. It's just a timeless movie. Even with the special effects being a little dated, it is a great experience every single time I watch it. Also,I may be showing bias as Bill Murray is one of my favorite actors ever but I believe the bias should be excused as Ghostbusters is probably what got me into loving Bill Murray.

These results are very interesting. I thought Pulp Fiction would run through the competition but it just shows what different people think makes a movie great. And personally I think that's pretty cool.

Pulp Fiction is an a-movie. Ghostbusters, although I love it to bits, would fall into a b-movie category. they're both retro and still hot so obv they can both easily be deemed "classics". they are different genres, doesn't really seem fair to put an apple next to an orange... i mean i guess you can compare the vitamin content or the taste, but come on.
