Ghostbusters - easy choice
Three Amigos - tough one
Blazing Saddles - easy
Young Frankenstein - really tough choice, both masterpieces.
Groundhog Day - really easy choice.
Big Trouble - it not being a comedy aside, I'm not a Smith fan.
Raising Arizona - easy choice
Tommy Boy - I always loved this movie.
Edit: once again, i screwed up and picked home alone accidentally, hopefully it wont matter.
Three Amigos - tough one
Blazing Saddles - easy
Young Frankenstein - really tough choice, both masterpieces.
Groundhog Day - really easy choice.
Big Trouble - it not being a comedy aside, I'm not a Smith fan.

Matchup #1 - Ghostbusters - Used to LOVE this movie. Now, I just like it a lot.
Matchup #2 - Animal House
Matchup #3 - Blazing Saddles
Matchup #4 - Young Frankenstein - I keep voting against SLiH, but it keeps getting through!
Matchup #5 - Groundhog Day
Matchup #6 - Big Trouble In Little China - Not a huge fan, but certainly better than Clerks.
Matchup #7 - Home Alone
Matchup #8 - Fast Times At Ridgemont High - Tough one, but Fast Times kept me supplied with whacking material well into my teens.
Matchup #2 - Animal House

#1 - Tempted to vote for Police Academy since someone with my name worked on it, but no, Ghostbusters, of course.
#2 - Slightly tough choice, as Animal House is overrated imo, but Three Amigos is fairly weak.
#3 - Mel Brooks is hit or miss for me, and Blazing Saddles is a miss.
#4 - Young Frankenstein however, is a big win. I must abstain however, as Some Like it Hot is buried in my unwatched pile. I am ashamed.
#5 - Groundhog Day by far. It is my 6th, 7th, and 8th favorite movies.
#6 - I like Big Trouble in Little China, but Clerks wins for me.
#7 - Raising Arizona by a mile, although Home Alone doesn't annoy me as much as I though it would on repeated viewings.
#8 - Don't love either, but Fast Times I guess.

YF vs Some Like it Hot? My 2 favorite comedies ever. Brutal. But, recently I've been watching SMIH more, so that's my vote.

I'm surprised Clerks is beating Big Trouble in Little China. I guess KS fanboys + BTiLC spanning multiple genres puts Clerks in the lead.
