Maybe it's me but it's pretty close to a perfect film and perhaps top 5 all-time. The cast is phenomenal. Love the guy who plays Wade. Ooops. Sorry. Don't know how to move to superbar.
You delete your entry…..you go to superbar….you start a new topic on favorite movies. But, I think you actually may have the ability to post this where it belongs prior to this.
Gotta be in my top 10. A great, great film. And you are right, the guy who plays Wade is phenomenal. Taking a stab at 10, in no particular order:The Sting, The Godfather, In Bruges, Fargo, Inglourious Basterds, The Avengers: Infinity War, Caddyshack, Independence Day, Shawshank Redemption, The Empire Stirkes Back
It looks like you and I have similar tastes ... which either figures because we're both Connecticutians or should scare the hell out of you.I'm in the "Caddyshack is overrated" camp, so that wouldn't be within light years of my top 10, and I probably wouldn't rank Independence Day or the Marvel movie in my top 25,
My top 10 in no particular order:Godfather (1 & 2)In the Name of the FatherA Clockwork OrangeThe Sting CInema ParadisoFargoThere Will Be BloodPulp FictionMississippi BurningOne Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest
Ted Knight cracks me up in Caddyshack (I also caddied as a high schooler and on weekends while in college so a lot of it rang true), and I wanted to include a straight up comedy. It was between that and Young Frankenstein. I really enjoyed the Marvel movies and wanted to pick one, and Independence Day is just a really fun movie start to finish.I also like to love all of your other suggestions, so we do indeed have similar tastes!
]Oooh ... Young Frankenstein ... great call. I was going off the top of my head and forget that one -- it and The Jerk are my two favorite comedies ever. YF is by far the "better" movie but I laugh a lot every time I watch just about any clip from The Jerk. It was Steve Martin at his dopiest funny, before he became a renaissance man. My wife's favorite comedy is Planes, Trains & Automobiles, which is damn funny too -- Martin is a great straight man to a hilarious John Candy.One also could argue that In Bruges, The Graduate and Inglourious Basterds are comedies, I suppose. So many of Tarantino's movies just crack me up.
We are going (covid allowing) to Bruges this summer solely because of that movie.
We're going in late spring for a break after my son's wedding.
Nice, we are basing in Brussels for 7 days. Let us know what you find fun.
Do you have family there? Otherwise that’s an awful long time in Brussels for me
