I love Step brothers, dumb and dumber and Tommy Boy.

My all time favorite is Hollywood Knights.

"Raising Arizona" has several lulls, but it has some hilariously funny parts. I watch it whenever it is on.

Subtract the year of release from 2013, add 25 years to that number, and you have the age of the poster calling it a favorite.

 

If we go with "Duck Soup", I'm 105.

 

If we go with "Napoleon Dynamite", I'm 34.

The correct answer has always been Blazing Saddles.

 

"Another schnitzel?"

"Baby please, I am not from Havana!"

 

"See this hand?"

"Steady as a rock."

"Yeah, but I shoot with this hand."

 

"Well, raise my rent, you are The Kid."

 

"I'm becoming an overnight sensation in this town."

 

"Are we awake?"

"We're not sure. Are we ... black?"

"Yes, we are."

"Then we're awake, but we're very puzzled."

 

I can do this all night. And that's just the safe-for-BGP lines.

 

 

 

I always liked the scene where Bart rides into town....."Excuse me while I whip this out".

[mcpapa]

​"That's Hedley."

Another great Mel Brooks movie is High Anxiety.

 

Harvey Korman is hilarious.
