    True, but I think the laugh also comes from the surprise. You're thinking, wow, how is he going to beat this guy? And then, oh, yeah, with a gun! It's kind of like when the Thing swats away the incoming spaceship of the dreaded Lizard Men of Tok in Fantastic Four number 16, The Micro World of Doctor Doom. Oh... wait. Nobody's going to get that reference but me.

    As I said in the first round, I hated Caddyshack. Tootsie gets my vote.
  3. Benjamin Grimm
    Rain Man.
  4. Benjamin Grimm
    Wow. Two movies that I really liked. I'm going with the bull, though.
  5. Benjamin Grimm
    Wow! Two movies that I've seen AND remember! That's a rarity for me. Breakfast Club didn't connect with me, but my younger sister loved it and watched it repeatedly. Either I was too old or too male for that one. I got a big kick out of Poltergeist, so it gets my vote. Easy choice.

    It probably would have been better if Donald Duck was in it.

I thought I was! Maybe I saw the movies that didn't make the cut. I've never really been a fan of the kinds of movies that make up the bulk of the polls. I'll have to review the 80's on IMDB and see what movies I did actually see.

    Didn't see Stripes, but remember thinking I'd probably hate it. Loved E.T., so it gets my vote. I loved E.T. a lot less when I watched it again many years later. (A VHS of E.T., purchased for my young son, was the last thing I ever bought at Woolworth's.)

    I was thinking of this:

    I'm so bad at this. I'm pretty sure I saw Terminator, but I don't think I saw Blade Runner.
  11. Benjamin Grimm
    Wow, I didn't see either of these, either. Wasn't Three Amigos an animated movie with Donald Duck?
  12. Benjamin Grimm
    Didn't see either, so I'm not voting, but I have to imagine that Karate Kid is the better of these two movies.
  13. Benjamin Grimm
    What Mets pitcher got a nickname from Police Academy?

  15. Benjamin Grimm
    I have to skip this one. I did see Fast Times but it made no impression on me. I remember nothing about it. And I'm not sure whether or not I saw Police Academy. I'm thinking probably not.
  16. Benjamin Grimm
    I don't recall seeing either, so, obviously, I'm skipping this one.
  17. Benjamin Grimm
    I'm equally confused.
  18. Benjamin Grimm
    I never learned the "guilt" part of being a Catholic. Maybe that's part of the reason it didn't' stick. Anyway, I loved Ghostbusters. Best fusion of comedy and horror since Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein.
  19. Benjamin Grimm
    I'm probably in the minority, but Field of Dreams was a letdown. I liked the book it was based on, Shoeless Joe, much better. I voted for Witness, even though it's not quite the popcorn movie that most of the other films in this tournament are.
  20. Benjamin Grimm
    Stone disappointed me. Rain Man made me laugh. And Dustin Hoffman was great.
  21. Benjamin Grimm
    I don't remember "Say Anything" at all. But I remember really enjoying Stand By Me, so it gets my vote.
  22. Benjamin Grimm
    I'm not sure that I'll be voting against Bull Durham no matter what it's up against.
  23. Benjamin Grimm
    She was Rita's mom. The one who didn't like Dexter.
  24. Benjamin Grimm
    JoBeth Williams showed up last season on Dexter. She still looked fairly attractive. (Better than she does in that photo!)
