Re: Comedy Tournament Round #1/Group #2
How many of you are more motivated to watch a movie that you haven't seen once it is in these tournies? After I see a movie in a few people's Top 10 lists and then getting votes in polls it makes me wonder what I have been missing. I have probably watched a least 5 movies just because of their succes in these. I have also been reminded of a bunch of movies that I haven't seen in a long time.

Re: Comedy Tournament Round #1/Group #2
Matchup #1 - National Lampoon's Vacation - Easy choice, although I'm not a big Chevy Chase fan.
Matchup #2 - Revenge of the Nerds - 80s rule!
Matchup #3 - Planes, Trains and Automobiles - Again, I didn't love this movie, but still tons better than Cable Guy
Matchup #4 - Didn't see either one.
Matchup #5 - Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein - Comparing A&C to Mike Myers is like comparing diamonds to my dingleberries after a 72 hour stomach flu.
Matchup #2 - Revenge of the Nerds - 80s rule!
