How is "My Cousin Vinny" not on the list?


Because it wasn't put on the list?

1) Forrest Gump
2) Tombstone
3) Star Wars
4) Princess Bride
5) Vacation Movies
6) A Few Good Men
7) CaddyShack
8) Big Lebowski
9) Holy Grail
10) Office Space
11) Major League
12) Dazed and Confused
13) Pulp Fiction
14) Austin Powers
15) Full Metal Jacket
16) Airplane

Replace The Last Boy Scout with Blazing Saddles, and Jerry McGuire with Fletch (no personal bias here, its just that it's half the phrases i use on a daily basis, ) and you'd have a perfect bracket. How Blazing Saddles isn't going to win is ...

Yes, I realize that. I'm just asking how a movie that would dominate half of that field isn't even invited to the dance.

Your credibility is shot.

Credibility? I'm not Roger flamefricking Ebert for frick's sake. A bunch of people gave me their input and I lined that up with websites that are dedicated to the topic and came up with a list. Its that simple. Put down your choices or don't. Make your own list. Or don't.
Once again I prefaced the op by warning that not every movie that people like were gonna make it.

And FWIW it was between Vinny and Happy Gilmore for one of the last spots...

It appears more people like "The Price is wrong bitch" than "what's a grit?"

Pee.Ess.
I'm sure they'll be fine with Va Tech in the NIT tourny..so relax...and id be appreciative if u filled out your bracket

Listen "frickwagon" this is not the street this is the Movie/TV Board and if you ask 20 people here you will get 2 or 3 of them who HASN'T seen the movie. Last I checked you didn't post this horrible bracket on the street and asking people for their opinion.

You asked the people here and a lot more of them will think the movie is more quotable than some of the garbage movies you listed in your short bus brackets.

Is there any doubt that The Godfather wins?


Went out in my first round to the more quotable Full Metal Jacket.

There are enough quotes from the training camp Sargent alone to win the match up.

I guess I just have a misconception that The Godfather is the most popular, quotable movie in the world, to go along with Scarface(Tony Montana) and Casablanca.
