    This is by far the weakest group. Only group over only voted for one film this round, maybe in the entire tournament.

    I can only take Jack Black in very controlled doses (Cable Guy, Anchorman), and he is very Jack Black-y in School of Rock (as you'd expect, given that he's the star); your feelings about him would probably drive your feelings about SOR (I didn't like it, but others certainly will/do).

    I thought he was great in Tropic Thunder and the recent Jumanji film.

    I'm not a fan of Jack Black or a lot of comedies in general.

    Comedies are my absolute favorite genre of movies. Although I don't know that I share that sentiment with many people here. I think that's why I'm always so disappointed in these tournaments.
    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?

    I love comedies, though it's harder and harder to find ones that I like that are smart, funny, and nicely paced without relying on sex, language, or stupid set-pieces.
