Better Movie #29

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Dumb & Dumber devoured Bull Durham like it was the soup of the day. So that's two victories for our spunky Rhode Island duo.

This next round is going to be a bit of a social experiment. If Dumb & Dumber wins, Jimmy Stewart will probably jump off a bridge.

And as always, tell us why you voted the way you did. If you don't, you will be subjected to manly love at 2:15 AM SHARP

Ive already posted enough to bring it home for D&D.

Wonderful Life is a Christmas Classic, but it's kind of boring

[Seth82]

Wonderful Life is oddly weird to be considered a classic but every year it seems it is

as the guy is on the verge of suicide IIRC

it's a great christmas movie but I still gotta go with D&D

[KYR]

Unlike the previous two posters (Tweedle Dumb and Tweedle Dumber) I'm voting for It's a Wonderful Life.

Mainly because I can't stand Jim Carey.

Yes you heard me correctly.

[Hornicane]

I voted for IAWL. I don't mind Carey, I just didn't really like D&D. :-\

[Skippord]

I voted for Dumb And Dumber

cause I'm not 70 years old

[Loose Cannon]

lol burned

[El Fangel]

I voted for Dumb And Dumber

cause I'm not 70 years old

[Jeritron]

that reasoning makes a lot of sense...

[Jeritron]

The problem here is that 80% of the people who will vote in this poll have likely never seen IAWL, and will not give it a chance.
As a result, you're really just parading the height of ignorance

[BDR]

I've seen IAWL and I didn't really like it.

[mitch_h]

I went with IAWL sure, it is pretty corny and sentimental, but I guess that's what makes it so endearing, plus I seem to watch it every Christmas. .

[DaveWadding]

It's a Wonderful Life is one of the best movies ever made.

[Droford]

I had to watch it every Christmas Eve when I was a kid. For that reason alone I hate it now.

Now if you had gone with A Christmas Story, I might have been persuaded to vote against Dumb and Dumber..

[Jeritron]

Frank Capra

[The Jayman]

D&D. I only seem to watch IAWL one time a year, Christmas time.

[Skippord]

I actually have seen It's a Wonderful Life and it's a good movie


I just feel strange justifying why I vote for movies. But Supreme's threats always scare me into saying why :(

[Rammsteinmad]

Dumb & Dumber.

Never seen It's a Wonderful Life, but Dumb & Dumber is awesome and would have probably got my vote anyway.

[thedamndest]

I don't care for It's a Wonderful Life...

[Lock Jaw]

I don't care for Dumb & Dumber...

[thedamndest]

I'm actually not that big on Dumb and Dumber either. In the grand scheme of Jim Carrey comedies I would put it somewhere in the middle.

But in the grand scheme of Jimmy Stewart movies (that I have seen), It's a Wonderful Life is right at the end.

[Jeritron]

Jimmy Stewart is probably one of my top 5 favorite actors

[Nicky Fives]

Dumb & Dumber by a mile..... that was a classic.... wouldn't a remake with Carrey/Daniels be great????

[XCaliber]

Even though IAWL is one of the few classic films that I like i'd still say D&D is a bigger favorite of mine I just don't like watching festive movies other than during the holidays.

[El Fangel]

I've seen IAWL and I didn't really like it.
