Poll: Lock stock or Snatch.

[Sovvolf]

Just watching the telly and Lock Stock is on ITV 1. Just wondering which did you prefer?.

Lock stock or Snatch.

Personally I prefer Lock Stock for it's wittier dialogue, better told story and better characters.

Snatch had the above but not nearly as good as lock stock... Snatch had a bigger budget and had a faster pace but it couldn't compete with the chemistry between Soup, Bacon, Tommy and Eddie. The dialogue while being funny couldn't compare with dialogue in lock stock.

I've only watched Snatch, so that gets my vote.

I just voted for Snatch, but I just realised I prefer Lock Stock...so now I feel silly.

They are both wonderful movies and are both very good for the same reasons.
-Fantastic plot
-Loveable charachters (Brick Top...loveable? Each to their own I guess)
-Great Dialogue

Now while Snatch is better from stealing quotes from, Lock Stock just is slightly better in everything else...and therefore wins my vote which I accidently gave to Snatch...woops

LSaTSB I prefer because it made perfect sense all in all and was witter and had this charm.. While snatch is nothing short of badass.

I thought Lock Stock was terrible, to be honest. Certainly wouldn't be interested in watching it again. Snatch, however... got it on DVD and watch it at least once a month. So, yeah, that.

How about "I like both of them, but not enough to watch them more than once"?

Yeah but the question was which did you prefer.. you could have liked both but one would have held better then the other in your opinion.. same case if you hated both one would still be better then the other in your opinion, even if it's only by a small amount. That's why I didn't provide the option of "I didn't like either" because the question wasn't about liking them or not but preference between each film. It's sort of like the situation were you get caught between watching one or the other... you can't back out or pick neither, you have to pick one of them, which would you pick between the two.

That's a bit like being asked to choose between the E Coli Virus or Jungle Fever. In the end it comes down to which one is over quicker. So if I had to choose, the one with the shortest running time.

Sorry, thought you were talking about something else...

Anyway, I've never seen either of them.

Lock Stock, but I reckon Snatch will win.

I liked more Snatch. The dialog, the action, the characters, Ze Germans, the stupid comedy and everything else. Snatch is awesome.

I prefer Snatch - mainly because I think it has more re-watch ability than Lock Stock does. I can watch Snatch regularly, and be laughing out loud most of the time; but Lock Stock seems to be stale if I watch it more than once a year.
