I give Swingers full credit for being so incredibly quotable, but I can't help but feel that the movie's creation was due to some sinister plot to trick guys into watching a chick flick (I'm kidding...sort of). While Rounders isn't perfect (the overuse of poker jargon gets irritating after a while), it's an entertaining look at the underground world of poker and it wins this matchup easily.

This match up right here is why I love this site. Rounders wins. But I just sat here and stared and stared. Two iconic movies (at least in my life).

Swingers takes this one...besides being obnoxiously quotable, the story of a struggling comic, hanging with his boys, while trying to make sense of a breakup is just instantly relatable. The style in which the story plays out is just effortless and completely endearing. Although...Teddy KGB's presence complicated this matchup...swingers still wins by a wide margin for me.
