How did we go 67 post before someone mentioned Porky's, the sketch artist scene (below) or the Lassie scene alone would put this movie on the list.

I agree; Porkys is definitely one in my favorites list.

[DragonFire]

My favorites that I can think of have already been mentioned upthread. I will say I don't think I ever laughed more than the first times I saw Anchorman and The Hangover in the theaters. I still quote Anchorman all the time. I'm also very partial to Fletch, 21 Jump Street, the Pink Panther, Super Troopers, and Billy Madison. I quote Billy Madison, Super Troopers, and Fletch all the time (and started daydreaming through Fletch for the last 20 minutes after I read the thread the first time).
