Meet the parents was GREAT!!!!!! It was on target with every joke. Thats why I will not see meet the fockers. I think they will ruin it by killing the jokes. That and the fact I hate Babs with a passion.
"I have nipples focker, can you milk me?"

Mad mad world is classic
Top secret- great site gags and nazis
airplane
Rat Race had a few moments that were good.
There are so many good ones........

I love just about anything by Kevin Smith (Clerks). I also really liked Something About Mary and Meet the Parents.

"Fletch"
I loved "Top Secret"
"Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid"
"Without a Clue" (a great spoof on the Sherlock Holmes story)
Along those same lines: "Dirty Rotten Scoundrals" (I love the Rupret character played by Steve Martin).

I know most of these have already been mentioned but my favorites are Clerks, Meet The Parents, Happy Gilmore, Porky's, Planes Trains and Automobiles, Napoleon Dynamite, Fast Times, Animal House and Caddyshack. I absolutely hated Royal Tenenbaums.

Kimiii remember what you said to Ekahob, I think you should give the royals another chance!

"Ekahob, NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! Not YOU!!! I liked you so much! I had such respect for you! NOOOOOO!!!

Watch it again. I promise. Have a bowl of Pop Secret's Blast O' Butter popcorn and M&Ms with you. My sister had the same reaction as you the first time she saw it but now she can't quit doing that sighing thing and quoting the lines. It has to rub off on some people with more than one viewing."

It's all a matter of personal taste I guess, did you ever see Ghost World?

DUDE!!!! Ghost World was a classic underground movie. I liked it because I knew alot of people like the main girl.

Dave, in Planes trains...do you remember when driving and they both fall asleep? They wake up between the two trucks screaming and for a split second they are skeletons. Good movie.

Yeah Philly I remember that scene. Of course, I just rewatched the movie a few months ago. I try to see it at least once a year. Even the song during the credits cracks me up. D D D D Del Griffith!
