Re: Comedy Tournament Round #1/Group #5
 

Yeah, I made the initial post and saw there were more poll options now. So I went ahead and did the poll and went back and fixed the initial post. Now it all should be good I hope. We will do twelve matchups in this Round and then I think we will use 8 after that.

Re: Comedy Tournament Round #1/Group #5
 

I wonder how many of us have seen both films?

Re: Comedy Tournament Round #1/Group #5
 

Damn you. :(

Re: Comedy Tournament Round #1/Group #5
 

Matchup #1 Back to the Future - I like Slap Shot, but BTTF is a classic.

Matchup #2 - Wayne's World

Matchup #3 - Tootsie

Matchup #4 - Christmas Vacation

Matchup #5 - ABSTAIN - Didn't see either one.

Matchup #6 - My Cousin Vinny - Ugh, tough one. I love Ace Ventura too.

Matchup #7 - Hot Fuzz - Didn't like it the first time, but I enjoy it more and more each time I see it.

Matchup #8 - Ferris Bueller's Day Off - Easy choice.

Matchup #9 - Better Off Dead - You bastard, putting two of my favorites against each other! :grunt:

Matchup #10 - Blues Brothers - No contest, I had my fill of Chevy Chase with Xmas Vacation.

Matchup #11 - Stripes - Another easy one, I hated Borat.

Matchup #12 - The 40-Year Old Virgin - Darn, another rough choice.

Re: Comedy Tournament Round #1/Group #5
 

Is Back To The Future really a comedy? I always thought it was more of an adventure with a few consequential laughs. I'd put it more on par with certain Schwarzenegger movies (Total Recall, True Lies, etc.) or the later Brosnan Bond movies, in that there are jokes and silly moments, but it's not really a comedy-based movie.

Then again, it has plenty of votes, so who am I to judge? :)

Re: Comedy Tournament Round #1/Group #5
 

Some of my favorites in this round, and for once they weren't all pitted against one another. I didn't vote in some matches because I'm not a big enough fan one way or the other, and deferred to more dedicated fans to resolve those battles.

Re: Comedy Tournament Round #1/Group #5
 

Do you all like doing this many matchups at once?

Re: Comedy Tournament Round #1/Group #5
 

Back to the Future
Wayne's World
Tootsie
Christmas Vacation
Bad Santa
Ace Ventura (tough one!)
Hot Fuzz
Ferris Bueller's Day Off (by a million miles, ND is so overrated)
Better Off Dead (tough one!)
The Blues Brothers (tough one!)
Stripes (by a million miles)
The 40-Year Old Virgin

Re: Comedy Tournament Round #1/Group #5
 

I would prefer smaller groups.
1) Gives me a chance to absorb the matchups, rather than being blitzed with two dozen movies at once.
2) If I happen to miss one group now, that's a lot of votes that I won't get to cast.
3) If we do it too quick, it will be over too quick! :(

However, since you're the one doing all the work, whatever you choose is fine with me.

Re: Comedy Tournament Round #1/Group #5
 

I like it.

Re: Comedy Tournament Round #1/Group #5
 

Spies Like Us vs. Blues Brothers? Damn.

Re: Comedy Tournament Round #1/Group #5
 

They're both among my favorite comedies.

Re: Comedy Tournament Round #1/Group #5

Re: Comedy Tournament Round #1/Group #5
 

Yes.

Re: Comedy Tournament Round #1/Group #5
 

So am I to understand that four times as many of you prefer Hot Fuzz to Bringing Up Baby?

Humanity is doomed, and rightly so.
