Only four for me: A Night at the Opera (Marx Brothers at their ultimate best), Amélie, Dead Alive, and Ruthless People.

[Ben Staad]

I'm not sure I'm voting for anything in this bracket. Maybe Ruthless People...

Amelie
Superbad
Tropic Thunder


I used to dislike Tropic Thunder, but I've come around.

I've already decided against voting Ruthless People or Dead Alive and I haven't seen Amélie but I could go either way on Clueless or Superbad. What should I do?

[Still Servant]

Clueless. It's one of my favorites from my childhood. I find it endlessly watchable, especially with the alternate endings. I love Superbad too, but it hasn't paid its dues yet.

[Mattrick]

Superbad
Tropic Thunder

A lot of films in here I haven't seen. Always wanted to see Amelie though.

[mae]

The polls are open for a week so you guys don't have to vote right away but try seeking a movie out first that catches your interest and then make your picks. Lots of them are on Netflix and other options.

[divemaster]

Ruthless People for sure. Extremely funny with a fiendishly clever plot. Sure, it's based on The Ransom of Red Chief, but clever in its own right. Great scenes and great lines ("This very well could be the stupidest person on the face of the earth...").

Ditto for Tropic Thunder. My God that was funny.

I also voted for Amelie, even though I consider it a whimsical romantic fantasy rather than a "comedy," but I did really like it.

And The Return of the Pink Panther. Kaaaaa-to!

I got no time or I would. I probably won't end up checking out some of these films I haven't seen until we get down the nitty gritty.

Clueless. It's one of my favorites from my childhood. I find it endlessly watchable, especially with the alternate endings. I love Superbad too, but it hasn't paid its dues yet.

Clueless doesn't have alternate endings. That's the teen comedy with Alicia Silverstone. You're thinking of "Clue" with Tim Curry.

[mae]

Dead Alive not doing better is kinda shocking. Also, the third Pink Panther movie is good and I understand why it's getting votes, but the first two in the series are much better, I think.

[fernandito]

Agreed. I voted for it here, but it will probably lose my support in the next rounds.

[Ben Staad]

Made up my mind and I'm not giving any votes to this group.

I was wondering what the alternate endings were By the way, I love Clue, hope its in the competition.

I really hope it makes it past this round. That film was hilarious.

Yep it's included in this tournament. I was going to nominate it myself if someone hadn't beaten me to it.

[Mattrick]

Glad to see a who left the fridge open.

[BROWNINGS CHILDE]

Superbad, Napolean Dynamite, Ruthless People.

[Still Servant]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I woke up at 3 in the morning because I couldn't sleep and was going through the polls. I couldn't find Clue and then it dawned on me that I voted for Clueless. I even wrote Clueless. I was just reading too fast and saw Clue and wrote about Clue but my fingers had other plans. Oh, well. I don't hate Clueless, but it's certainly not a favorite of mine. My mom loves Clueless, so I guess that one is for her. Brain fart.

Rest assured, I know the difference between Clue and Clueless. I still have the original poster from my parents store.

Hahahaha!! I'm giving you rep points for that!!

[mae]

Are you sure you don't want to rescind your vote for Clueless?

[Theli]

Woooo, Dead Alive!

[skyofcrack]

Unless I'm missing something, I don't see a way to change your vote.

[mae]

No but I can take that into account when the poll closes.

[Still Servant]

Are you sure you don't want to rescind your vote for Clueless?

No, that's okay. Like I said, my mom loves that movie and if she somehow finds out I didn't vote for it, she'd be pissed. Thanks though. Also, I did like Clueless. It's also the first time I ever saw Paul Rudd and Donald Faison in something. Rudd is still a favorite of mine 20 years (holy shit it's been 20 years since Clueless) later.
