Well? What do you think is the sweatiest movie of all time?

Don't let the title fool you, this is a sweaty movie about life in a prison chain gang.

Rocky

The training of a boxer can be very sweaty indeed.

Lawrence of Arabia

It's set in a desert.

Spartacus

On the run from the Romans can be very sweaty.

What's this?

Who's leading the conversation?

This visualization below allows you to see the impact that each user has on the current conversation. The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera). Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the left, in their corresponding group. Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

A Time To Kill. Ashley Judd never looked so hot (in every way possible).

The first Predator movie was excessively sweaty.

Just about any jungle combat movie is a reason to be thankful we can't smell what's going on.

And the thought of a sweaty Ashley Judd in A Time to Kill is making me want to renew my vow to stalk her like a big dog if I ever hit the Lotto.

Hell, that makes me want to start playing the Lotto.

FYI I got the idea for this poll from an episode of Cheers, they seemed to think Cool Hand Luke was the sweatiest; I voted for Body Heat.

I will be doing a weird/dumb polls like this from time to time and will be publishing them to the group Bar Room Debates.

I voted for Cool Hand Luke for quality vs. quantity male sweating... Paul Newman not the other guy.
