The Birdcage and La Cage aux Folle have to be treated as separate films.

Because, well, they are.

La Cage is amusing. The Birdcage is as funny as shit.

Elspode · 02-27-2005, 11:03 PM

I just wanted to give acknowledgement that one begat the other...although I guess I sort of put them in the wrong order.

Blazing Saddles
Spinal Tap
Fast Times at Ridgemont High
Caddyshack
Blues Brothers
Better Off Dead
Real Genius
Stripes

oh yeah, did anyone mention:
A Fish Called Wanda?

mrnoodle · 02-28-2005, 09:40 AM

These have been nominated, but gotta get my $.02 in.

MP & Holy Grail

Spinal Tap (the first time I saw it, I literally almost passed out from laughing at the Stonehenge bit)

Office Space

What About Bob?

Any Sellers Pink Panther movie.

Catwoman · 02-28-2005, 10:14 AM

About a Boy
Love Actually

BigV · 02-28-2005, 01:31 PM

All film titles I repeat should be read as "seeding votes" since I agree with many exisiting nominations.

1 -- The Gods Must Be Crazy
(The "anti-christ" Land Rover at the gate is exquisite physical comedy)
2 -- Me, Myself, and Irene
3 -- Young Frankenstein
(What Knockers!)
4 -- Modern Times
(Chaplin, the father of physical comedy)
5 -- A Fish Called Wanda
(What was that part in the middle?)

/retires to think of 15 more.../

11 -- Duck Soup
12 -- Raising Arizona
13 -- Rocky Horror Picture Show

14 -- Groundhog Day
