Default Best Comedy Movie of all Time - Round Robin Division

Not an easy poll with more than 60 suggestions. I've decided to group the movies by era, and that way the winningest movies from each era will move forward to compete against the other eras for best of all time.

To be fair to respondants, some movies may receive overwhelming support in their category and will possibly be additional picks in the elimination division.

Anyone who hasn't seen the movies in the 'Classic' group, I urge you to do so, because they are all hilarious and really stand the test of time.

Issues:

-If we're only allowed to vote for one, I think the 1980s and 1990s categories are too big.
-Office Space was made in the 1990s
-Caddyshack and Arthur were both made in the 1980s

You might be right, but I hope the sample of respondants is big enough to give us a feel for the best of each group. I won't let any good movies get eliminated here, don't worry.

As for the dates, I realize the issues, but I wanted to even out the groups a bit. Besides, Caddyshack was in 1980, which counts as the 70's for some, but I put it in the 70's mostly because of the wardrobes [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

The Cable Guy is the worst movie ever.

No Anchorman!?

And Groundhog Day is NOT an 80's movie!! WTF!!!

1993, man.

I hate saying this because it's so cliched, but this poll really blows.

And I agree with the guy who said S.A.M. is being snubbed. Although I voted for AP:IMM, I think most of the dumb and dumber votes should really be goint to something about mary. That movie was really funny. I think people forget.

Anchorman should be there.

So should Spinal Tap.

The 80s poll is tough. (though airplane is the clearly the funniest)

I'll say it again, the poll is just a way to trim the fluff and pick seeds before the elimination rounds.

Agree with you about SAM, I don't see how people could pick D&D over it, but there you go. As for Groundhog day, I didn't check its dates on IMDB, just tried to remember.

The other travesty is that there's not a single vote for Return of the Pink Panther, which can only be because so many of the young crowd haven't seen it.
