    Definitely voting for Dumb and Dumber and Ted. Still debating about Zoolander.

    The Big Lebowski is tough for me. I know it’s a cult classic but I haven’t been able to sit down and watch it all the way through yet. I have it on my DVR and I’ve started to watch it numerous times but I always start to lose interest after the first half hour or so. I’ve seen bits and pieces of the rest of the movie when it comes on TV but I don’t think I’ve ever even seen the ending.
    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?

    The only thing TBL did for me is to make me try a creamer and Kahlua drink...I didn't laugh.

    I suspect my vote may end up being the only one for The Bachelor and the Bobby-Soxer but I hope people might at least give it a watch now. So funny. Cary Grant is the best!

    Now this is a list I can sink my teeth into. Loved Ted, Zoolander, Modern Times and the Fantastic Mr. Fox, but with two of my all time favourite comedies in the list; Dumb and Dumber and the freakin' Big Lebowski, they just can't get votes!

    The Big Lebowski is one of those films that just gets better after multiple viewings. Also, I always tell people not to pay attention to the story. Just hang out with these characters.

    Such an endlessly quotable film. I have 2 Lebowski t-shirts and I could easily have a dozen.

    So many great lines from that flick. It gets regular watches around here.

    Voting for up to six means you choose that many. If you don't vote for something you're effectively voting against it.

    Actually it means you can choose 1,2,3,4,5 or six. There have been categories where I've only seen 2 films so I can hardly vote for more than that.

    Well, that's why it's up to six. As I noted in another poll, that doesn't mean you must pick six, but picking just one when you like other movies is counterproductive, I think.

    Is it just that people haven't seen The Bachelor and the Bobby-Soxer or they don't remember it? One fucking vote! If the trailer hasn't jogged your memory, here's a nice clip with Cary at the top of his game:
