I disagree completely. I think all three are absolutely wonderful films. But then my opinion has counted more because I have controlled the game from the beginning. I think the first two Survivor games were completely flawed. I keep saying it but the idea of the game is not to vote off movies in order. Luke already accomplished that with his countdowns. The object of this is to get your favorite movie to be first. It is the only position that matters in this game.

You and several others do not have your favorite movies here because you don't understand the game of Survivor. Me - I have missed three episodes in eight seasons. I knew how to get my movies to the end.
I think that the reason my favorite films are not here is because my taste is different than most of the people, and not that I don't understand the game of Survivor. Besides, Aaron stated that you had to vote off the one you like least in the game - that's what I did. I won't waste time using strategy to play this game. 8)

On the subject of what is the true purpose of the game, I think it's simply to have fun with Disney movies. That can involve some strategy- strategy is fun in some doses. However, when strategy begins to run amuck and everyone gets frustrated with seeing all their movies leave too early at the hands of alliances, a good movie may win out, but what's the point? In the first two Survivors, there was what I felt was a healthy mix of voting off what you don't like and alliances and strategy. Somehow, it seems to have been taken to a new level in this game, and I'm not sure why or where that began. But anyways, I've still enjoyed this Survivor, too, and hopefully things go a little more smoothly in Round 2.

Chris - don't take my post too seriously. I was just mocking some of the post Survivor speeches you see on the reunion shows. It's still all just a game.

Cheers
