Only three here: Harold & Kumar, The 40-Year-Old Virgin, and Dirty Rotten Scoundrels.

[Mattrick]

Major League, The 40 Year Old Virgin

[Still Servant]

So many great films in this group... and then you see Meet the Fockers.

Actually, this group reminds me of one of those "What Doesn't Belong" exercises you see in magazines.

[Still Servant]

6 votes? Amazing, simply amazing.

Some of the people voting for Fockers don't post much, but I'd love to get their thoughts.

[fernandito]

My beautiful Last Action Hero won't make it past this round... goodnight, sweet prince.

Also voted for Shaun of the Dead and 40YOV.

[Still Servant]

Nope, but Meet the Fockers probably will. You know, the film you voted for last round... twice I presume.

:rolleyes:

[fernandito]

Oh jeez, fucking get over it.

[Still Servant]

Oh jeez, fucking get over it.

I'm just messing with you. But seriously, I will probably continue to harp on it until it gets bounced from the tournament. Or wins the tournament, which looks more and more possible.

[mae]

Yeah I'm not sure why Fockers appears to be so popular. Pretty eye-opening.

[Mattrick]

Bad comedies that make lotsa lotsa money (Hey Grown Ups 2, HOW YOU DOIN!?!) make no sense to me. Now we have Paul Blart 2 coming out....I almost vomited in the theatre during that trailer.

[mae]

I'm surprised Harold & Kumar isn't getting more votes.

[Still Servant]

People are just voting because they like the franchise and the actors in the film. I wouldn't be surprised if most people don't even like the film that much, it's a vote in honor of a far better film, Meet the Parents. I get it, I do that with certain franchises.

I'm actually surprised Little Fockers didn't get nominated.

It's doing a lot better than Meet the Parents though, which kinda surprised me. I don't know if it's the films it's up against, or maybe most people really do prefer the second over the first?

I didn't realize that. That is very surprising. I'd love to hear from the people voting, but they refuse to speak up. It shall remain a mystery.

Oh, c'mon!!!!

Nice logjam for fourth place. Too bad only one of Harold & Kumar and 40-Year-Old Virgin can probably advance.

[Mattrick]

40 Year Old Virgin had better advance. It's far superior to the other films it's tied with. It's superior to the entire grouping.

[mae]

It's certainly better than Major League.

[Mattrick]

I like Major League (it got my other vote) but I agree, it's definitely better. I like Major League, but love 40 Year Old Virgin.

[Iwritecode]

"Are you trying to say Jesus Christ can't hit a curve ball?"

[mae]

Really surprised to see Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle ahead of The 40-Year-Old Virgin.

[Mattrick]

Are you really surprised by now, Pablo? I'm not at all. Not at all lol.

[mae]

And now Fockers has pulled ahead, what is going on?

[mae]

The poll has closed. The following four titles are moving on to the next round:


National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation (1989) 61.76%
Shaun of the Dead (2004) 50.00%
Major League (1989) 44.12%
Meet the Fockers (2004) 38.24%


And the following four titles have been eliminated:


Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle (2004) 35.29%
Dirty Rotten Scoundrels (1988) 29.41%
The 40-Year-Old Virgin (2005) 29.41%
Last Action Hero (1993) 8.82%

[RUBE]

Sad to see Harold and Kumar out and by only one vote.

[Tommy]

Fockers is going to win this thing, watch and see :eek:

[Heather19]

It probably will :lol:

[Mattrick]

Fockers isn't better than 40 Year Old Virgin. I don't care how much crack you smoke.

[Still Servant]

Fockers is going to win this thing, watch and see :eek:

I feel like Jeff Goldblum in Independence Day or Jeff Goldblum in Jurassic Park, nobody listened to me when I warned against Fockers. I was laughed at and brushed off as if I was making a big deal about nothing, but this is not nothing. Don't make the same mistake that people always make with Jeff Goldblum, listen to me. Fockers must be stopped.

:thumbsup:



Meet the Fockers was just as overrated as Meet the Parents.

[mae]

I could easily replace the bottom three that went on with the top three that were eliminated.

Don't do it, man! There'd be trouble!
