We love our current lineup of formats, but we’re always looking for fresh and exciting ideas—and this might be our best yet. Introducing The Third Reel’s A-Z of Films: Letter A Edition!
The goal? To build the ultimate movie alphabet by choosing just one film per letter. In this series, we put 32 of the best and most diverse films starting with a given letter into a tournament-style showdown. They’ll battle head-to-head, round by round—from the Round of 32 to the Sweet 16, then on to the Quarterfinals, Semis, and the Final.
Since 32 films is a lot to cover, we’re splitting each letter into two parts. This week, we’ll go through the first 16 matchups. Next week, we’ll tackle the other 16, with both winners facing off in the ultimate final round to claim the top spot for Letter A.
This was an absolute blast to record, and let’s just say—the Wheel of Names really knows how to throw a curveball! We might have just found our new favourite format.
Are there any films you think we missed in our list of A films? Any ones you want to see included in future letters? We want to know!
