Comedy Film Knockout: Round Three: Playoffs: 1980s

Each film has been given three points. In each post, you may remove one point from one film and give it to another. In your post, note your change beneath the list. The final three films will go on to the playoff round.

You may post 5 times in one day. You cannot post twice in a row.

The life of this list is one week from inception. At the close that week, if more than three films remain, the top three will be selected for the playoff round.

Here is the beginning list. I will make the first post as an example.

Caddyshack (1980) [3]
Airplane! (1980) [3]
The Blues Brothers (1980) [3]
Trading Places (1983) [3]
Ghostbusters (1984) [3]
This Is Spinal Tap (1984) [3]
Ferris Bueller's Day Off (1986) [3]
Raising Arizona (1987) [3]
The Princess Bride [3]
Beetlejuice (1988) [3]
Midnight Run (1988) [3]
Heathers (1989) [3]

This has been happening in a lot of threads lately. Has there been an upgrade to the message board software lately?

Yeah and there are tons of glitches. Most notably, posts appearing in front of the post they were responding to.
