Missing a couple.... — 1 year ago

I agree…. Lebowski needs to be in this list. Along with “The Party” (Peter Sellers) and “Dirty Rotten Scoundrels” (Steve Martin/Micheal Cane)

A Fish Called Wanda shouldn't be included... — 1 year ago

A Fish Called Wanda should not be on the list. Not because it isn’t funny, in fact it should be a lot higher than it is. The fact is it’s not an American movie.

British director, British writer and star, plus the main Production Company is British…

Mrs. Doubtfire? — 1 year ago

How can you include “Mrs. Doubtfire” in a list that excludes Neil Simon’s “Seems Like Old Times” or “Noises Off”?

Monkey Business Correction — 2 years ago

Item 73, Monkey Business was pointing to the wrong movie. It was pointing to the 1952 Howard Hawks film instead of the 1931 Norman Mcleod movie.
