Re: Comedy Tournament Round #7/Championship
neither of these are even close to being my favorite comedies, but I picked Ghostbusters for purely sentimental reasons.

I am gonna go ahead and name Ghostbusters the Champion. The bracket has been updated if you would like to see how the entire tourney played out.

Duck Soup - Beaten in Round 2 by Naked Gun -
The World According to Garp - Not included -
Buck Privates - Not included - You bastards.
Fast Times at Ridgemont High = Beaten in Round 3 by Raising Arizona -
Groundhog Day - Beaten in Round 5 by eventual winner Ghostbusters
It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World - Beaten in Round 1 by Tommy Boy -
My Cousin Vinny - Beaten in Round 2 by Shaun of the Dead - Okay, I'll let that one go.
Trading Places - Beaten in Round 2 by Airplane.
Ace Ventura: Pet Detective - Not included - But AV: When Nature Calls was!

Actually, that was pretty cool. Mine looks bad, as I picked movies with 0 or 1 vote to try to get them in the tourney. Only two of my picks made it past the first round. Still think it was shameful that no Sellers Pink Panther film was included.

I'm totally cool with the winner; it's a great film.
Thanks again, Woody. This, and the horror poll, was a lot of fun. Can't wait for the next tourney!

So much to choose from. Woody needs to have a poll on what should the next one be.
Westerns/Sci-fi/fantasy/war movies.
Is sci-fi/fantasy one category? or two?
