sorry, my fault. The sun was in my eyes, there was a crosswind, the ref is blind, um. I shoulda had that one. A travesty, really.

Sorry.

Office Space--weak.

I own both, watched both in the last year and Office Space is superior. Meaning of Life suffers from long, drawn-out sections that are not funny at all. Sure, it has the "wafer thin mint", but little else to it. Meanwhile Office Space is a spot-on critique of modern society for about 50% of us.

Jacquelita doesn't agree.

Ferris Beuller's Day Off, or Police Academy?

Ferris Beuller's Day Off!

right

agreed

confirmative.

terrific, UT's time becomes copious as mine becomes meager...

It will be interesting to see the results later.

Planes Trains and Automobiles, or Waiting for Guffman?

PLANES

Blazing Saddles, or Revenge of the Pink Panther?

Hey! I nominated Revenge of the Pink Panther! Against Blazing Saddles??? Oh dammit. Oh dammit. If I pick Revenge of the Pink Panther, Radar will hate me and lumberjim will beat me up. Crap!

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo....

Young Frankenstein, or Modern Times?

Young Franky

Rocky Horror Picture Show, or White Men Can't Jump?

ROCKY !!!!!!

Oh my goodness, what an exciting day you have all had! I do regret that my rather bizarre schedule kept me from participating :(

There were some amazing upsets, and probably an about equal number of victories that I'm quite pleased about.

Since we're working this out as we go ... how's about for future rounds limiting people to 10 nominees (As long as the interest holds out and we'd fill the field that way)?

I think the spontaneous vote when the matchup is annouced is a good way to go in the early rounds. But, to catch people who (ahem, like me) login late at night ... what about the person who makes the pick annouces the next matchup? We did that a couple of times on the Cereal Field of 64, and it seemed to work all right. That method doesn't rely on UT's constant attention to the process, and also enforces the "no two in a row" rule.

Oh, and radar needs to review the rules, such as they are.

Wasn't aware there were any rules other than picking those you like the best. If it's a contest to hang around all day hoping you'll happen to be online the moment they announce the next matchup so you can vote, it's a completely stupid game. I thought the goal was to see which of these the people in the cellar like the most, not which of these those who happen to be online during a particular 3 minute period like.

Some of us have jobs.

Don't participate in any thread you don't read. The first rule is no whining.

Happy Gilmore, or The Naked Gun?

Naked Gun

"Nice Beaver"

*Snort*

Life of Brian, or Best In Show?

Life Of Brian

Rule #2 is don't vote for two things in a row.

Sorry. I panicked.

Oh, I get it. It's a completely stupid game for people who have no lives. I mistook it for a poll of which funny movies the members of this board liked best, which it clearly isn't. I'm sorry I took part in it. And that's not whining, it's an accurate description.

Completely stupid: CHECK!
People with no life: CHECK!
People with no job: CHECK!

That's me. Unemployed, stupid and living under a bridge. With a stolen laptop, a can of sardines and a hacked WiFi. :) Life is good.

NEXT!

Radar, after you read that the rule is no whining, just leave the thread without whining. It makes you look smarter, fulfilled, and employed.

i thought he got fired?

life of brian

this is a travesty. i watched something like 5 more suck ass adam sandler movies because of how hysterical happy gilmore was, just hoping for something half as good. "you eat little pieces of shit for breakfast?"

sigh

The Wedding Singer was pretty good. Not top 64 material though.

Trading Places, or Stripes?

Stripes

I'm afraid Sandlers body of work as a whole has tainted Happy Gilmore. Everytime I watch it I get annoyed at how much time of mine he has wasted.

Psycho: The name's Francis Sawyer, but everybody calls me Psycho. Any of you guys call me Francis, and I'll kill you.

Leon: Ooooooh.

Psycho: You just made the list, buddy. Also, I don't like no one touching my stuff. So just keep your meathooks off. If I catch any of you guys in my stuff, I'll kill you. And I don't like nobody touching me. Any of you homos touch me, and I'll kill you.

Sergeant Hulka: Lighten up, Francis.

Classic. :thumbsup:

Wow. I really liked Stripes (boom-shaka-laka) but the competition offered by Tradiing Places was quite extreme, I thought it would prevail.

NOT whining
 

is like saying Red offers competition to Blue...

He got rehired.

UT, do us a favor and put the link to the standings into your sig line while this is on.
thanks so much

Princess Bride, or Who Framed Roger Rabbit?

princess bride


whew. i was worried about that one

Raising Arizona, or Big Trouble in Little China?

raising arizona

yer right to be worried, given that WFRR is a much funnier movie than PB

it's really really close, and i think roger rabbit may have had slightly more laughs in it, but the princess bride has sooooo many great quotes in it.

"Sthtop ryhming, i mean it!"

"anybody wanna peanut?"

inconcievable!

jou keep using that word. i do not think it means what you think it means.

Except after c, Dave.

Ok, on the "facts" it is really close, but I just love Roger Rabbit. It has it's own quotes too:

"They say no toon can resist _Shave and a Haircut_"

"I'm not bad, I'm just drawn that way" (damn)

"My problem is I got a forty year old lust and a three year old dinky"

Oh, my God.......IT'S DIIIIIP!!!!!!! (dedicated to the smokeless tobacco fiends in the audience)

YAY! Princess Bride made the cut. I was worried, too.
