Note to newbies: Don't fall for the newbie trick that Mr. Noodle is trying to play on you. What he really means is PM Undertoad with "Blues Brothers" and "South Park." Dont' fall for his treachery.

Semi-final results are IN

Game one: Blues Brothers 10 The Princess Bride 8

Game two: Blazing Saddles 13 South Park: Bigger, Longer, and Uncut 5

Twice the voting of the first field of 64, there was clearly great interest in this topic and much closer games. And now...

It's the Final! Send me a private message with your choice for:

The Blues Brothers, or Blazing Saddles?

Everyone may vote once for the next 24 hours, at which time a winner will be announced.

May the best/funniest film win!

Blues Brothers wasn't funny. Neither was that whole period of SNL that everyone goes apeshit over. Blazing Saddles is the only choice.

I should shut up, I'm jinxing my teams. I guess I can take off my lucky Princess Bride boxers now.

How much for the women? I want to buy the little girl. How much?

Which one of you can tell me who was the waiter in that scene in the Blues Brothers?

Who can tell me the name of the prison guard releasing Jake from prison?

Who can tell me the name of the man at the end of the movie they give the money to so they can pay off the taxes for the orphanage?

RAdar, I cannot answer your questions as I'm still shocked and stunned over the Holy Grail loss...NO Python in there at all??? I resign my Laughometer!

and PS--when the Blues Brothers WINS it will only re-inforce the concept that the Cellar is a WASP community. Not that there's anything wrong with that...

Why would a Blues Brother's victory prove that the Cellar is full of wasps? Not enough black people in the movie for you? Ray Charles, Aretha Franklin, John Lee Hooker, Matt "Guitar" Murphy, Chakha Khan, James Brown to name a few... WTF???

Right--too many white people in it. It's a white movie about the blues. How white can you get?? and if you blinked, you missed a lot of those guys you mention. 'Cept for 'Retha and Scat. This was a vehicle for Belsuhi and Ackroyd.
