The ignorable offense for this round is a vote for Groundhog Day instead of Grail.

C'mon people, help me reach my goal of 100!

I guess you can add me to your list again.

Unless I missed seeing it in the nominations thread I would argue that a majority of OOT would disagree with you.

I can take some comfort in that then.

I thought it was a generational thing, but Airplane! and Caddyshack are both from that wonderful era of the 70's that some of us had to be teenagers in.

If by 70's you mean 1980, then hmmmkay....

Thesis: 1980, one of the greatest years ever for movies.

Discuss...

(Raging Bull, Airplane!, Empire Strikes Back, Caddyshack, The Shining, Superman II, The Blues Brothers, The Stunt Man, The Great Santini, Kagemusha, Flash Gordon, Friday The 13th, The Great Rock 'n' Roll Swindle)

The Elephant Man, The Big Red One, Atlantic City, and Altered States are 1980 releases as well. Of your list Raging Bull, Airplane!, Empire Strikes Back, Caddyshack, The Shining, and The Blues Brothers are IMO classics. All-in-all I may have to agree with you unless someone presents evidence otherwise. Good call.

I abstained from #2, couldn't decide.

My votes were the bride, monty, and caddyshack

I must have missed this in the earlier rounds due to a fcked up PC, but would have voted for Zoolander all the way
