Abstain - Haven't seen Wet Hot American Summer.
Spaceballs - No contest.
Kingpin - Hilarious and I never was a Dazed fan.
Pee Wee's Big Adventure - Funny and frightening.
The Princess Bride - Sort of a tossup for me, not the biggest fan of either.
The Jerk - By a nose.
Scrooged - Not even close.
Royal Tenenbaums - Ace Ventura 2 was awful, imo.
Abstain - Haven't seen Horsefeathers.
Police Academy - I haven't gotten into Broken Lizard movies.
Old School - I know AH is the classic, but I laugh at Old School every time I see it.
Spaceballs - No contest.
Kingpin - Hilarious and I never was a Dazed fan.
Pee Wee's Big Adventure - Funny and frightening.

Re: Comedy Tournament Round #1/Group #6
I voted for all 4 Bill Murray movies in this one. Its nice to see 3 of them winning at least but I admit to being surprised seeing Dazed beating Kingpin. I like both but Dazed dosen't really deliver in the laughs department

I think I'm one of the few people that doesn't enjoy Spaceballs. It was all set up to be a top comedy for me. I love parody/spoof films, I love the cast, I love Star Wars and want to see it spoofed. But Mel Brooks is very hit or miss for me, and this one is completely unfunny.

Re: Comedy Tournament Round #1/Group #6
I'm reminded how little interest I have in comedies. I haven't seen all of these movies, and don't really care about most of the ones I have seen. And the few I do really enjoy...are being trounced in this poll.
Sorry; while The Princess Bride is the superior movie, Superbad is far and away a funnier movie. And Aaron Eckhart is absolutely brilliant in Thank You for Smoking.
