    was hoping for a grander number of voters, but thanks all. I will let it go to tonight, and will then post winners and next comedy round pairings.

    COMEDY REGION: ROUND 1

    (haven't seen either)

    Princess Bride (17)\

    (haven't seen)

    (haven't seen)

    (haven't seen)

    (12) Ferris Bueller's Day Off (tough choice!)

    There's Something About Mary (20) (beans and franks win the day)

    (4) Blazing Saddles

    (3) Monty Python: Holy Grail (because of the Holy Hand Grenade and the Knights Who Say Ni)

    (neither)

    (6) Ghostbusters (another tough one!)

    (haven't seen)

    (haven't seen)

    (haven't seen)

    (15) Planes, Trains and Automobiles

    (2) Airplane!

    I'm not a person who seeks out comedy movies, so that's why I've seen so few of these. And I'm throwing in a shout out for Office Space.

    I can't believe Raising Arizona and Big Lebowski lost... a travesty if I've ever seen one
