Finally, I have a hard time thinking anyone in their right mind would consider these comedies. Needless to say, they won't be on the ballot.

American Psycho

you are retarded. the movie is literally black comedy/satire.

So what you are goign to tell me is that a movie with:

Bill Murray
Dan Aykroyd
Harold Ramis
Rick Moranis

is NOT a comedy? clearly this isn't an attempt at a serious movie.

Ghostbusters is comedy, wether it was funny or not is not my judegment call, but it was definately indended as a comedy.

i just looked at some of the others you listed. you really aren't qualified to let things in or out.

Ghostbusters just ain't an action movie, I'm sorry. That's insane. Any movie that has a giant marshmallow man rampaging through the city counts as a comedy. Just because they try to shoot the marshmallow man with their proton packs doesn't make it an action movie.

And by the way, when someone asks you if you are a god, you say 'YES!'

You're sure it's not figuratively black comedy?

Once again, let me repeat my earlier statement. Just because a movie contains humor, even lots of humor, doesn't mean it was made as a comedy. American Psycho wasn't marketed as a comedy, none of the movie websites list it as a comedy, and the director herself has stated the movie is a feminist and satiric (I'll give you that) view of the American Dream turning into something psychotic and terrible.

See, this are the kind of compelling arguments I was looking for. Ghostbusters will be included in the poll.

Seriously to quell any bitching, just use IMDB. Ghostbusters - Comedy/Fantasy/Sci-Fi.

I thought you wanted it included?

I can't explain why Cannonball Run, Fargo, Hudsucker, Club Dread, and Rocky Horror should be considered comedies because I can't figure out why they wouldn't be.
