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.

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

Spinal Tap
Fast Times at Ridgemont High

Blues Brothers
Better Off Dead

oh yeah, did anyone mention:

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

MP & Holy Grail

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.../

7 -- There's Something About Mary
8 -- Monty Python and the Holy Grail

BigV 02-28-2005 01:55 PM

11 -- Duck Soup
12 -- Raising Arizona
13 -- Rocky Horror Picture Show
(Rocky! Ughh!)
14 -- Groundhog Day
15 -- A Shot in the Dark
16 -- Mask
