how im gonna make up something universal, doesnt even make any sense: IT"S THE TOP 100 COMEDY FILMS RESULTS THREAD

Only 7 people voted Four Lions and Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, and only 5 for Bowfinger? !?!

^^^YES (xpost to hollywood shuffle clip)

#218 - 108 pts - 3 votes - 1 first place: The Great Muppet Caper

UGH. Proof that ILX is feltist.

okay I am kinda stunned that I was the only one who voted Airplane #1!

I think this means I'm awesome, right?

Nice to see that about 1/4 of my ballot placed just outside of the top 100.

jjjusten did you really not vote for Hank and Mike? what the hell dude, I thought we could get it at least into the 400's, lol

Only ~half the people who submitted votes included Airplane at all.
I kind of like this crazy wide spread.

Thank you Austerity Ponies! (and Polyphonic)

Enjoyed this poll even tho I didn't send a ballot (I voted in two polls back in Oct/Nov, and somehow broke ILX both times.)

Who had Step Brothers at #1? I must know

Proud to say I voted for Hollywood Shuffle but man did Boomerang not do it for me when I saw it in college. My Murphy pick was Coming To America

If I could read an email address properly Airplane would have had another #1. But yes, you are awesome VG.

#372 - 49 pts - 1 votes - 0 first place: The Errand Boy

*sigh*

Thanks again, Austerity Ponies and polyphonic. This was good fun!

Ha, I actually voted for more John Witherspoon movies than Eddie Murphy movies (his monologue about the pleasure of kicking dog-ass in Friday was a big part of it sliding on the ballot). The John Witherspoon vehicle House Party would have also made my top 100.

xxp Ooh, yeah, Fletch was on my ballot. Man is ENBB gonna be pissed.

#627 - 6 pts - 1 votes - 0 first place: Tiny Toons: How I Spent My Summer Vacation

was this a tuomas vote

#539 - 24 pts - 1 votes - 0 first place: Death to Smoochy

lol morbs

I guess they just don't know that IT'S ALL BALL BEARINGS NOW. xxp

;)

#501 - 30 pts - 1 votes - 0 first place: Throw Momma From The Train

Al, was this you?

i think tiny toons was on deric's ballot in the ballot thread

i did not vote for Throw Momma no haha

#380 - 48 pts - 1 votes - 0 first place: Blue Velvet

lol this is my vote, and yes i did place it as the 3d funniest film of all time. an opinion shared by no-one but myself it would appear ;_;

Hey, who were the other three votes for Bring It On?

I'm one!

The Life Aquatic was scarily close to the top 100

tiny toons vote was me

I can't believe only 4 other people voted for Kingpin. No wait, I can.

#402 - 45 pts - 1 votes - 0 first place: Boomerang

I actually find this enraging

TTA was jjj IIRC and that was another movie that was cut from my ballot at the last instant; it's fucking hysterical

ooohhh this stings!...

#103 - 236 pts - 9 votes - 0 first place: Idiocracy

just missed.

I did not vote for Death to Smoochy.

#170 - 144 pts - 6 votes - 0 first place: local hero

#170 - 144 pts - 5 votes - 0 first place: pootie tang
#170 - 144 pts - 6 votes - 0 first place: The Room

#173 - 143 pts - 4 votes - 0 first place: The Miracle of Morgan's Creek

sez it all

just think ... if one more person would've added knocked up to their poll and threw it a vote ... or another person who did vote for it had it lodged just one place higher on his/her ballot ... then the fireworks would've started immediately b/c OMG JUDD APATOW NOT FUNNY

Idiocracy was awful. I could barely watch it. I think I checked out once they'd made the Fuddruckers into Buttfuckers.

i barely even had a concept of Boomerang being a comedy when it came out because of all the vaguely romantic-looking clips used in videos for the various R&B hits on the movie's soundtrack

(arbitrary cut-off for silent screams = top 5 on ballot)

I woulda put "Local Hero" on my ballot if I did one, Morbs

also see:

#111 - 210 pts - 7 votes - 0 first place: In Bruges

i'm glad that there are 6 other ILXors who are intelligent and tasteful enough to recognize the genius of in bruges.

It says ILX has a wide definition of comedy, Morbs.

Rubin and Ed would've got a third vote if I had voted.

lol In Bruges was unfunny '90s hitman comedy trash

its funny how there's a bunch of movies just outside the top 100 that are literally better than every movie that placed. slapshot only getting 6 votes... smh

Two of those silent screams were mine. (Aaaaaaaah!)

i barely even had a concept of Boomerang being a comedy when it came out because of all the vaguely romantic-looking clips used in videos for the various R&B hits on the movie's soundtrack

Because really, who would expect a movie starring Eddie Murphy, David Allan Grier, Martin Lawrence, Robin Givens, Halle Berry, Grace Jones and John Witherspoon to be a comedy?

DJP, I will make Boomerang an honorary member of SILENT SCREAMS

^^^haven't seen it but I will now!

Boomerang was definitely a comedy but I really don't recall it being very funny

i dunno man, watch the Boyz II Men and Toni Braxton and PM Dawn videos full of Eddie and other guys wearing nice suits and making bedroom eyes at noted comedy legends Robin Givens, Halle Berry and Grace Jones
