"Only The Best Get Crowned"

Rain Man 11-22-2000 03:46 PM

Here are my favorites by genre:

Comedy:
Any movie by the Zucker Bros. (Airplane, Naked Gun trilogy, High School High) and/or featuring Leslie Nielson.
Smokey & the Bandit (1&2, 3 is kinda wack).
Police Academy 1-4 (5-7 are weak w/o Steve Guttenberg).
Any Jim Carrey flick (They're stupid, but you just can't help laughing).
The Out of Towners (the original 1970 flick with Jack Lemmon is TEN TIMES better than the current Goldie Hawn/Steve Martin remake).
The Odd Couple II (that argument b/t Felix and Oscar about the trifecta/fourfecta/fivefecta had me ROTFLMNBAO).
Animal House

Drama:
Patton (a MUST RENT)
Nixon (I have never heard a president cuss so much in my life)
JFK (got a little longwinded after a while, but still good).
The Negotiator
Pulp Fiction ("This is a TASTY burger!")
Titanic
Brittanic (sister ship to the Titanic and having a similar plotline to that of Titanic)

Horror
April Fools Day

Disaster
Any of the "Airport" movies ('70,'75,'77,'79)
The Poseidon Adventure
Earthquake (1974)
Earthquake in New York (1999)
The Los Angeles Earthquake (1990)
Hurricane
Volcano
The Day After

Sci-Fi
Any movie parodied by Mystery Science Theater 3000
MST3K: The Movie

Black (predominately Black cast)
The Josephine Baker story
Introducing Dorothy Dandridge
House Party trilogy
Booty Call (a little on the ghetto side, but HEE-LARIOUS).
Nutty Professor
Jo Jo Dancer
Soul Food
The Court Martial of Jackie Robinson

Adult:
Email me for this one (just kidding, just kidding http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif)

Sorry so long.

Rain Man-
You are too hilarious! I also like the Naked Gun, Airplane, High School High, and love MST:3K. I hate it went off the air.

I still laugh at Friday everytime I watch it. I like Grease and Eraser.

Gotta add 2 more:

Dirty Dancing - my husband (who never went to movies so I had to catch him up on all the 80's) is so freaking funny when this is on (which is like Thurs - Sun nights somewhere either on TBS, TNT, or WGN) - he'll pick my cat up during the final dance scene, and swing him around like Jennifer Grey while singing in this totally stupid voice. I know its a "just gotta be there" thing - but I'm cracking up just thinking about it.

My Cousin Vinny - oh my gosh - let me just sum it up with "The 2 Youts, Your Honor" - and "No self respectin' southerner eats instant grits" --- how funny was this movie?! We should just buy it because we rent it so much (of course its on all the time too!)

I can't explain why it did, but I know that this movie just seemed to really pull me in. It's an incredible movie about a young woman's strength. If I think about it long enough, I get teary! Anyway, I think that I've labeled it as my favorite.

"Where the Heart Is"


Other movies I love: Steal Magnolias, Gone with the Wind, The Truth about Cats and Dogs, Grease (musical, but you know what I mean), The Wizard of Oz, Funny Face, and cheesy--but--So I married an Ax Murderer--I laugh my butt off at that movie!

My favorite is probably older than most of you on this list. It's THE GODFATHER, and it made the top ten of the millenium. Rent it and check it out for yallselves.
