I have a hard time believing that movies like Harold and Kumar, 40 Year Old Virgin or Wedding Crashers should be on anyone's abosolute must see list.  They're hilarious but at the same time I didn't see anything about them that really puts them on a completely different level of comedies. 

I'm hoping that "Vaction" is referring to the Nat'l Lampoon's movie. 

Not a single Monty Pyton movie?  Really?

No Police Academy or Super Troopers?

You want to remove Harold and Kumar, and insert police academy?

Now THAT's comedy :-D

Ghostbusters was a great movie, now the graphics look horrible, except for the Stay Puft Marshmellow man, he still looks great

I haven't seen 104 of them.  And since the rules say that I must see them before I die, I plan on keeping several on there just to make sure that my plan for eternal life works out.

You can have horses shteinting in cups and having Gina Gershon (sp?) licking that shtein up while getting pissed on by an elephant and she'd still be hot.

You want to see Elizabeth Berkley dry hump the douche from Sex & The City and Desperate Housewives?  Have at it.

american pie wasnt funny. it really sucked, actually.
Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.
