    I Love You, Man for the win!

    Actually, I'd be surprised if Lost In Translation didn't win the whole thing.

    I'd be surprised if it did.

    I can see a full fledged comedy taking it all the way.

    I don't see" Lost in Translation" as a comedy. Not even close. Would be in Drama

    Hearts are tough, she said, most times hearts don't break, and I'm sure that's right . . . but what about then? What about who we were then? What about hearts in Atlantis?

    It's hilarious. "He say look into the camera, and more intensity." "Is that all he said? It seemed like he said a lot more than that." "Into camera, more insensity." "Got it. For a relaxing time, make it...Santori time." "CUTO!! CUTO CUTO!"

    I didn't say there weren't funny lines... I just said it's not a comedy.

    (and yes, that line is great!)

    It's considered a comedy. Was nominated for golden globe in comedy. There are a few Dramedies not in Pablos list, Almost Famous, Punch Drunk Love, American Beauty, As Good As It Gets. dont see why they don't count if sci-fI/horrors were included in both tournaments.

    American Beauty? Really? Again, I don't see it!

    As Good As It Gets... sure!

    American Beauty is a black comedy. Such a funny movie. "YOU LIKE GETTING NAILED BY THE KING?!?" "I LOVE IT!!" Half the reason I love American Beauty and Lost In Translation is how funny they are. The more I watch them, the more humour I pick up on. I'll be nominating some Dramedies, and leave it to the will of the people. I'm just worried if we don't allow funny dramas into this, those movie will be overlooked in the drama tournament when we do it. Don't see how Alien can both be sci-fi and horror but American Beauty can't both be in comedy and drama. The term dramedy exists for a reason. There's no sciforror genre lol

    I left out a bunch, sure. American Beauty, As Good As It Gets, About Schmidt, American Psycho... The list is pretty much endless, which is why I can't wait for this. And yes, dramedies and black comedies should definitely count.

    Is a category having endless examples really a plus for nominating here? Seems like we're bound to be left with lots of regrets.

    Very funny. But:

    https://www.commonsensemedia.org/mov...merican-psycho
    American Psycho: Bloody, gruesome black comedy that's not for kids.

    Parents need to know that American Psycho is based on Bret Easton Ellis's controversial 1991 novel, which is set in the 1980s and deals with materialism, narcissism, and the amassing of great wealth to be spent on personal pleasure. It's also a story about a callous murderer, with several gruesome killings shown, and lots of blood, as well as shots of severed heads and body parts. Sex is an issue, since the main character has both a fiancée and a lover, and then participates in a threesome with a prostitute and yet another woman. Not much nudity is shown, even if sex is strongly implied, although there are some breasts and bottoms on display. Language is also strong, with many uses of "f--k" as well as many other strong words. The characters quite often drink alcohol, smoke cigarettes and cigars, and sometimes snort cocaine or take pills. These characters are clearly irredeemable, and do not learn much of anything during the course of the story. The movie is entertaining in a horrific, comical way, but is certainly not for kids under 18.


    If you don't think American Psycho is funny, well, sorry. It is.

    How about seconding a film like we did for the sci fi tourney?

    Yes, I think that was agreed on. Plus, I believe, five nominations in between.
