My oh my, what a wonderful abstain...

(Only seen TCJ)

 

[Bill McA]

The Court Jester

 

[Brook K]

It's another abstain and another pair I doubt I ever see.

But I had Funny Face confused with Funny Girl, so minus the participation of Babs, the likelihood of me seeing Funny Face went up about 20%.

 

[george kaplan]

You really should see The Court Jester. I realize these golden-age comedies aren't your thing, but this one is one of the best.

 

[george kaplan]

The Court Jester wins.

Next,

Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid vs. Hatari!

 

[SteveGon]

I know I've seen DMDWP, and I probably saw Hatari! on tv when I was a kid, but why break a streak?

Abstain

 

[Bill McA]

Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid

 

[Adam_S]

Eventually I might be able to vote on another one of these matchups...

 

[george kaplan]

I have to go out of town for a conference next week, which means I'll be posting 5 matchups at once. We might actually get a vote from some of the habitual abstainers.

 

[Brook K]

Hey I've seen one of these and I hate it!

I vote for abstain over DMDWP

I think I was confused again, Court Jester is Danny Kaye right? I might see that. I was thinking it was Jerry Lewis. Though I would like to see the Lewis and Martin film that is featured in Fassbinder's In A Year With 13 Moons, but I don't believe it is on DVD.

 

[Lew Crippen]

It is Danny Kaye Brook. I don´t have quite as high opinion of it as George, but I still found it pretty funny.
Some parts were very funny.

 

[george kaplan]

Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid wins.

Next,

The Lost Weekend vs. The Counterfeit Traitor

 

[Bill McA]

abstain - no Counterfeit Traitor

 

[SteveGon]

Ditto that.

 

[Brook K]

3rd that

 

[DavidBC]

fourth

(...and I was doing so good!)

 

[george kaplan]

We have a tie which I'll break for The Lost Weekend.

Next,

Notorious vs. The Bells of St. Mary's

 

[SteveGon]

Wait for it, wait for it...

Abstain!

 

[Bill McA]

Notorious

 

[Brook K]

No-No...Notorious, Notorious

actually I have to abstain, I just thought we could use a Duran Duran quote.
