We begin round two with a pair of matchups featuring a shark that wouldn't work against, the Pentagon Papers, America's most beloved President, and a hidden gem on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

The poll that I recently posted on the greatest film in the Spielberg canon sparked a great deal of a discussion and a ton of questions. You’ve all clearly got myriad feelings on the subject, and so do I for that matter. So, let’s have a good old fashioned tournament, and pick the favorite Spielberg film for the WAIM community.

With a bit of research and some objective appraisal, I have seeded the 32 films presented here from top to bottom. These seeds take into account my own personal tastes as well as your comments on the poll from last week and any number of lists to be found in cyberspace on the issue.
