Well, it seems the better movies won most of these matchups. The Elite Eight round will be particularly brutal with some fierce matchups. Enjoy...

Office Space vs Lebowski...crap. That's not fair!

That was the second easiest one for me after the Airplane one. I voted Office Space, Airplane!, and Groundhog. Didn't vote in the first one because I haven't seen Spinal Tap and don't remember much of Princess Bride.

Lebowski and Office Space is the worst...two fine American films going head-to-head. The others are far more clear-cut.

Office Space is one of my favorites, Im leaning Lebowski though, because I think it's funnier overall--then Groundhog Day, Spinal Tap, and my # 1 is CaddyShack.

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!

Lebowski vs. Office Space is probably the hardest choice we've had in one of these sorts of polls. I ended up going Lebowski, but I'm not too happy about it.

Airplane was an easy pick over Caddyshack (even though the latter is quite good), and Groundhog Day was an easy pick over Monty Python, simply because it's a vote against Monty Python. Princess Bride may be a better movie than Spinal Tap, but Spinal Tap was funnier.

Office Space and Lebowski was an easy choice for me, I am just not a huge fan of Office Space. I will usually watch and laugh through the first 45 minutes or so on TV, but the last half of the film always loses me. Lebowski is, IMO, sublime comic genius. Tough one for me was Groundhog Day vs. Holy Grail. They're funny on such different levels that I have a rough time comparing them. Eventually I went with Holy Grail for pure belly laughs, and for virgins asking to be spanked.
Airplane vs. Caddyshack was a bit tougher as well, but I've always been a fan of ZAZ movies, so despite the love I have for Rodney Dangerfield I went with Airplane.

Have to agree with you on this one. Groundhog Day is an amusing romantic comedy, but Holy Grail is comedic genius.

My personal pick would be Airplane over Office Space in the final. I doubt that will happen though.

I've made the list!! I voted Groundhog not because I think Groundhog is that great of a movie but because Monte Python is a brick of sh!t.
