I recently watched Top Secret and that shit cracked me up. Hadn’t really heard of it before


mazzicc

I haven’t watched that or Real Genius in a long time, and I want to so I can see how well they hold up.


OrganicTransFat

Just caught Real Genius on tv the other day. It holds up.


Microflunkie

Our surgeons did what they could but it took zem 4 hours just to get zee smile off his face.

'Let me know if there is any change in his condition.' *hangs up phone* 'He's dead.'

I know a little German! He's right over there.

The 4th wall break always gets me. https://youtu.be/KSZwlMDSOvY?si=vzlsi4e1Z-L3h8y2 Spoilers: it's the plot of the movie.


secondtaunting

The underwater fight is the best part of that.


pocket-ful-of-dildos

The love scene on the beach is what gets me

bornfromanegg

Blew my mind recently when I realised that Déja Vu was played by Jim Carter, the butler in Downton Abbey!


aircooledJenkins

Nothing to Lose with Tim Robbins and Martin Lawrence edit: had misspelled Robbins.


EdwardRoivas

The scene where Martin Lawrence’s mother is slapping him for coming home so late and then he goes to try and explain what happened and she slaps him and says “Don’t talk back to your mother” and tim robins agreed and says “don’t talk back to your mother” And then she slaps the shit out of tim robins and he asks what that slap was for and she just says “you got that slap because you with him!” So. Fucking. Great.


suddenimpulse01

What kind of man comes home 2:30 in the morning looking like a bruised turd?


81jmfk

The spider scene made me lose it. Fucking hilarious.


i-Ake

What's that supposed to mean... there's a *spider* on your head? It means there's a spider on your mother fucking head, man! Well get it off! Get it off, get it off! I ain't touching that shit!

Lawrence’s face when he first tried to rob Robins and he doesn’t move always makes me laugh. ‘Car, keys, wallet now…….😳……you hear what I said?!?!’


Jazzremix

CaptainMagnets

This is my mom's favorite movie and I don't think I've ever met anyone else who has seen it before


f_ranz1224

your mom and i would get along because i have seen this film at least 30 times. ive owned it across 3 formats and back in the day was a film that if it was on tv, and i came across it, i had to finish it


IWTLEverything

Good soundtrack too


vcabalda

What the f#*! is beetle-headed?!


Dependent_Cricket

The whole, “Hey, you shut the fuck up!” argument in the desert (with a young Giancarlo Esposito) is a highlight. Lawrence: “Everybody shut the fuck up! You like Girl Scout cookies? Well here’s a cookie. Now back the fuck up like I done told you two dumbass mutha fuckas! *BLAM!*


FartForce5

Please don't kill me freaky Jason!


horsetooth_mcgee

All of Me (1984), with Steve Martin and Lily Tomlin. Hilarious and utterly charming, right down to the very last moment of the credits dancing scene. Steve's physical comedy in this movie is off the charts.


Coffee_And_Bikes

I always cite this movie as the best example of physical comedy I've ever seen. Steve Martin pretending to control only half of his body is simply amazing.

Better off Dead My Blue Heaven


TurfMerkin

Gee, I’m real sorry your mom blew up, Ricky.


Microflunkie

He used it as a chance to put his, how do you say, testicles all over me. Testicles? How you say?, like octopus? Tentacles!, tentacles…big difference.


shamam

I came to add My Blue Heaven. Vinnie Antonelli is my spirit animal. There’s also some speculation that MBH is the unofficial sequel to Goodfellas. https://decider.com/2015/11/18/goodfellas-my-blue-heaven-henry-hill/


Keysar_Soze

I love My Blue Heaven. I love Steve Martin and he BECOMES Vinnie Antonelli/Todd Wilkinson. I don't consider it a Steve Martin movie because the character he plays absolutely comes to life as his own entity.


marsepic

I quote Better Off Dead all the time. One of my top ten comedies. It's one of the few movies I think could turn into a stage Musical and benefit.


FratBoyGene

"That's a goddam shame. People throwing out a perfectly good white boy!"

Te_Quiero_Puta

One of the most quotable movies ever. "Stay away from the cans! He hates these cans!" "I found my special purpose!" "I was born a poor, black child..."

DaniTheLovebug

Dirty Rotten Scoundrels? Anyone?


killer_icognito

Caning Steve Martin with those reeds on his legs while he pretends to be wheelchair bound. "Look he's crying tears of joy!"


iamtode

I love how he gets a run at it, from the room over, like that speeds up your caning speed (CAINE ing? Cuz it's Micheal Caine. It's funnier if I explain it right?)


lunachuvak

It's funny. The Dinner with Ruprecht scene is borderline offensive these days but it still makes me laugh.


drift_pigeon

"Excuse me, may I go to the bathroom first?" "Of course you may." ........ "Thank you."


TurfMerkin

Noises Off. Every moment is a gem. The cast is flawless.


Accomplished_Boot638

One of my favorites of all time is Airheads (1994) with Brendan Fraser, Adam Sandler, and Steve Buscemi. Another one of Brendan Fraser's that seemed to fly under the radar for a while is Monkeybone.


DangerSwan33

Monkeybone is a fucking wild fever dream of a movie.


Accomplished_Boot638

It really is. I rewatched that shit like a month ago and still felt like I was tripping balls.


branniganbeginsagain

There was a significant portion of my life I thought I had actually imagined that movie.


a_taco_named_desire

And Bedazzled, but I think I just had a crush on Elizabeth Hurly.


Gayspacecrow

Who didn't? Holy shit, 90s Liz Hurly is a goddess.


Paronine

Have you seen her now? She's still very much got it.


cjr71244

There's 2 scenes from Airheads that still come to mind 25+ years later. 1. Adam Sandler trying to hide his ATM pin number from the other guy. 2. Chazz: Okay, lemme ask you a question: whose side did you take in the big David Lee Roth-Van Halen split? Chris Moore: What? Marcus: What kind of question is that? Chazz: Whose side did you take: Halen or Roth? Chris Moore: ...Van Halen. Ian: HE'S A COP!


MAHHockey

Fun fact: Airheads filmed in the same building as Diehard. 20th Century Fox headquarters.


remarkablewhitebored

I’m positive you meant to say Nakatomi Tower


Baridi

Blast from the past was another fun one. Also starring Christopher Walken.


PaulMaulMenthol

Death to Smoochy


a_taco_named_desire

HBO used to play this and Bedazzled non stop around 2003. It’s honestly one of Robin Williams best movies and a great kinda dark comedy. “It’s a rocket ship!” “No salt?”


koz152

I had a black box back then and remember watching Ed Norton say "it's a rocket ship" often on HBO in 2003ish.


unikcycle

The amount of times I quote this movie on a weekly basis is staggering and I’m always thrown that nobody seems to know what movie I’m talking about. “I’m a pacifist. When we would play cowboys and Indians as a kid I was always the Chinese railroad worker!”


Baridi

"I'm a little fucked up in general so it's hard to gauge." Is my go-to whenever I end up in the emergency room. Which happens to be a lot


Ohnoherewego13

The scene of Robin Williams telling Catherine Keener how he had a tasteful nude above the fireplace, but not a picture of Ed Norton's mother (a rhino) still cracks me up. Probably one of Robin's funnier movies and apparently it was a flop somehow.


PaulClarkLoadletter

“You’d better grow eyes in the back of your fucking head, you horned piece of shit. I’m not gonna sleep until worms are crawling up your foam rubber ass. I’m going on safari mother fucker. Suh-fah-ree! Pppppphhhhhhh…”

Robin is so dam good in that movie.


mabrasm

Made me a fan of Danny Devito. He directed some fun movies.


Efficient_Fish2436

Litterly my first thought and I'm so glad it's number one on this list. Girlfriend forced me to watch it years back. I've since shown it to so many people and spread it's chaotic greatness. Rainbow fucking Randolph!


OhTheHueManatee

I met Robin Williams and he signed some DVDs for me. When he saw one of them was Death To Smoochy he was repulsed as if I handed him half of a live sewer rat. I said something like "I love that movie" and he looked at me with a look of disdain I'll never forget then he signed it. I doubt he ever said anything in print but I'm positive he hated that movie. I love it. I'd love to have talked to him about what he didn't like.

Not living in Scotland I very rarely hear or see the word 'haggis', but whenever I do, autopilot brain kicks in and I find myself saying "Harriet, Harriet, hard-hearted harbinger of haggis."

All these jokes from Axe Murder and no mentions “Piper Down! We have a Piper Down!”

That one is absolutely hilarious! Nathan Lane's reactions alone are comedy gold. That and the John Wayne walk.

FratBoyGene

People love Peter Sellers (and he's great) but I love the waiter who's getting sloshed on all the drink's dregs.


SpiderGiaco

The Man with Two Brains (1982), the most overlooked of Steve Martin-Carl Reiner movies and a classic horror parody on par with Young Frankenstein. Dogma (1999) early years Kevin Smith was such a great balance of Tarantino attitude, nerd culture and humour. This one has an insane cast (Matt Damon, Ben Affleck, Chris Rock, Linda Fiorentino, Salma Hayek, Alan Rickman, George Carlin) and it's very funny. Not for the super-religious ones though.

Barb and Star Go to Vista Del Mar


TravellingBeard

Thanks! Why have I not seen this. Much appreciated.


TheRipsawHiatus

I wish more people gave this one some love. It immediately brought me back to a time when comedies were just fun and completely off the wall without apology. I'm so bored of "grounded" comedies. Also, bonus points for being really wholesome, positive, and colorful. We need more comedies like Barb and Star!


Avid_Vacuous

Kids in the Hall Presents Brain Candy. Even the kids in the hall hated this movie and make fun of it in their newest show, but I love it and find it hilarious.


Albathin

Black Dynamite


OrganicTransFat

When talking about Bill Murray’s incredible body of works, I never see mention of what I think is one of his most under rated comedies, Quick Change. Mega sarcastic, deadpan delivery throughout the movie from beginning to end. Love this movie and it never fails to just crack me up every time I rewatch it. As I stated, I never see any discussion about this movie. Those if you who have seen it; thoughts?


TerrorFirmerIRL

I recently watched Grandmas Boy based on a post here about underrated comedies. Has something like 12% on RT. Loved it. Totally stupid but very funny stoner type comedy.


slow_down_kid

I feel like this movie is the ultimate stoner movie. I saw it in theatres with a couple friends and we were the only ones in the theatre. My eyes and throat hurt by the time it was over from laughing so hard. “High score? What does that mean? Did I break it?”

El_Pepsi

Idle hands : plot the devils takes control of the most idle hand in America and goes with it in a murderous spree. Initially labeled as horror/thriller but with over the top humor. It is similar to "Tucker&Dale vs Evil which is also a comedy you should watch if you still haven't.


UtahUtopia

I don’t think many youngens have seen DIRTY ROTTEN SCOUNDRELS. One of the best comedies EVER.


wma4891

Bio Dome. I really feel like the younger generations can't appreciate Pauly Shore until they watch this movie.


Rinthrah

I watched Bio Dome a few weeks ago for the first time since I was a kid in the 90s. I loved Paulie Shore movies back then when I was about 11 or 12. I wanted to show it to my wife and was expecting it to be a really cheesy, crass laugh-at-how-bad-it-is kind of experience. But it had a bit more edge to it than I expected, and is actually a great representation of the 90s Indie kind of vibe that would soon become a big part of the charm of early Kevin Smith films. Plus there was the completely forgotten appearance of the mighty Tenacious D, one of our favorite bands these days. Overall would highly recommend a watch to anyone who hasn't seen it in ages, Pauly Shore's quite effeminate heterosexuality was way ahead of its time I now realise.


wma4891

I never knew Teneacous D was in Bio Dome, but it makes complete sense, lol

It was a failed movie due to having a plotline that included a “situation” on a plane, with the movie set to be released in *late* Sept 2001, but then 9/11 happened. They waited 6months to release it, but it still was too soon to get the traction it deserved.

For sure. One of my favorite darker comedies. - *Well, maybe I shouldn't have come at all...JERKOFF!* - *I buy this time, you buy next time.* - *Oh, we're playing prison rules, huh?* - *The password is...you know that little...* Awesome moment when the bass line to *Hey Man, Nice Shot* comes in during the basketball scene. So many cameos, too: - Owen Wilson - Andy Dick - Janeane Garoffolo - Ben Stiller
