vs.

"The energies of our system will decay; the glory of the sun will be dimmed, and the earth, tideless and inert, will no longer tolerate the race which has for a moment disturbed its solitude. Man will go down into the pit, and all his thoughts will perish. The uneasy consciousness, which in this obscure corner has for a brief space broken the contented silence of the universe, will be at rest. Matter will know itself no longer. 'Imperishable monuments' and 'immortal deeds,' death itself, and love stronger than death, will be as though they had never been."

Movie 9 is in my top 5 of DC movies, so went with that one.

I loved the phantom of Baker Street since it actually had an original idea
(plus great Yusaku and Shinichi moments)

Damn. This one was tough. I love both the Movies, but Phantom is SLIGHTLY better than Strategy.

I actually love both of these.  9 mostly because of Kogorou figuring things out before Conan.  Picked 6, though, because of sheer awesomeness.

I might wake up early and go running. I also might wake up and win the lottery. The odds are about the same.

Movie 6 is better (considerably so), but over time I've come to be more and more fond of 9. Movie 6 also was a harbinger of sorts for the mystery-free future of DC movies, something negatively influences my impression of it.

It isn't, so...

Went with 9. I actually didn't like 6, like at all.

I think that when all's said and done both are overrated but I'm sticking with 9...
