Movie of the Year: 1999

The Grand Finale (Part 2)

The Road to the Finals

The bracket heats up in Part Two of the 1999 Movie of the Year Finale, and the Taste Buds—Mike, Ryan, and Greg—are back to call every twist, turn, and cinematic takedown. The stakes are higher, the drama is bigger, and the films are fighting harder than ever for a shot at the crown.

The Matchups: Semi-Final Showdowns

Only four films remain, and the battles are fierce:

• Election vs. The Blair Witch Project – Tracy Flick’s cutthroat ambition goes head-to-head with supernatural terror in the woods. It’s satire vs. found footage, politics vs. paranoia.
• The Limey vs. The Green Mile – Steven Soderbergh’s stylish revenge story steps into the ring with Frank Darabont’s heartbreaking prison epic. Vengeance clashes with miracles, grit with grace.

The Taste Buds don’t just break down the movies—they hype them up like a championship bout, with every argument landing like a body slam.

Special Awards: Comedic Performance, On-Screen Duo & Biggest Shithead

As if the semi-finals weren’t enough, the Taste Buds also reveal the winners of three special 1999 honors:

• Best Comedic Performance
• Best On-Screen Duo
• Biggest Shithead

The nominees are under wraps, but the winners will spark laughs, debates, and maybe even outrage.

Conclusion: The Fight Isn’t Over Yet

The road to the 1999 Movie of the Year crown gets narrower, but the drama only intensifies. Will Election’s political claws cut down the terror of The Blair Witch Project? Can The Limey’s revenge stand tall against The Green Mile’s miracles?
