Donnie Darko is more dramedy but can see your point on some elements. The cool airplane twist/dark bunny make it a little eerie but Donnie was a funny dude throughout..almost office space esque at private school (disconnected)

i like tombstone but not over for a few dollars more.

i hope josey and no name go into triple OT.

 

[cowboyec]

i love die hard but not over braveheart...easily one of the greatest movies ever.

 

[BigStar]

Star Wars geeks....sheesh!

I can't believe Happy Gimore is giving Ghostbusters a run for its money. No Adam Sandler movie should even be considered. Grown Ups is his best by far, and even that shouldn't be in the running.

I love the early Sander movies..but he's no savant and he would likely tell you that. Frat boy humor that I got as a child etc lol...I didn't get half the jokes on Ghostbusters until I saw it as a teenager.

it breaks my heart planes,trains & automobiles isn't in this.....but i've known my tastes run counter for a LONG time.

sci fi genre should've been on it's own.

Yeah didn't get Donnie Darko in the comedy department.

The Horror/Sci-Fi regional is bugging the heck out of me! I am skipping it for a while longer so I can think more about the matchups. That regional feels to me like the Western regional probably feels to @cowboyec .

Yeah. Yeah. It is all my fault for putting movies of the same genre or two different genres within the same region together. I blame myself. And cowboyec. And @CouchCoach .

Well, I see it only took 16 posts for me to get drug into this and catch some blame. This was not my original idea. My original idea was more like the cute little bugger that burst forth from John Hurt's chest. This is more like the full grown xenomorph wreaking havoc on the Nostromo.

Easy peasy
Just resolve to vote as Visionary did abd you will be right 100% of the time

 

[visionary]

BTW @DallasEast possibly the funniest movie in history did not get nominated

History of the World

Airplane is probably the second funniest movie followed closely by Naked Gun

Just goes to show that I can’t let you and @Runwildboys take care if anything without constant supervision

 

[cowboyec]

curious on the vote totals for movies that just missed out.
how the hell do we not have indiana jones or capt jack sparrow in the action/adventure region....no Stallone either.

 

[cowboyec]

i hate 2001.....should be Close Encounters instead.

 

[CouchCoach]

100% your fault! I stated that in no way should horror be teamed with SciFi. I said horror/thriller or SciFi/fantasy

You have no one to blame but yourself

I agree and when I suggested Horror/Sci Fi, I was thinking Halloween/Dracula and Alien/Predator, both within the Horror genre. Sci Fi to me is different and not in the Horror genre at all.

Yep, Raiders is the action/adventure movie. So is Rambo but I would have that in the Military/War category.

given all these grievances I vote that there should be a complete re-vote on categories etc and I vote for @DallasEast to do it

or just let me select the CORRECT movies for each genre...ipso-fatso...solved.

LETS GO EASTWOOD FANS

for a few dollars more needs a few more votes...no way kurt russell beats the man with no name.

VOTE...VOTE TWICE IF YOU CAN....BUT VOTE.

I thought about adding T, P, and A to my list, but then I realized I'd be doing it because it's popular,and not because it's one of my favorites.

History of the World was very funny, but was no Monty Python and the Holy Grail...or Tommy Boy...or Crazy People.
