    I love Dazed and Confused, that felt like a throwback coming of age tale, but I can see why some put it on their list. Office Space should definitely be up there, all time banger!

    Absolutely Office Space!

    D&C- stoner comedy. I thought it was funny, but never into getting mellow so it didn't resonate with me (and lots of other people). Of course, you could say the same thing about Office Space- if you haven't worked in an inside office you probably can't relate as much.

    Dumb and Dumber was not great, generic stupid comedy. Rush Hour sucked: anything with Chris Tucker outside of Fifth Element (and he was the worst part of that movie) and Friday (he was great) is awful.

    never into getting mellow so it didn't resonate with me: do you youngsters really say things like this? Sounds like something a 30 year old narc pretending to be a hip college kid and turn people onto speed just to get them busted would say @Deckard's house in '71

    I'm insulted. Speed kills! I'm more insulted that you would even joke that I could have been a narc then or at any other time. What an awful thing to say. I was busy having fun. Heck, I spent half of that year in Europe, and half of that time in the Netherlands, having fun. I had a Dutch girlfriend I met coming back from a rained out Pink Floyd concert at Amstelpark. She was beautiful. She was also fun. More fun than you. I was also a pretty mellow guy, most of the time. Ask Mr. Leitch.
    :cool:

    Comments I’ll accept are “zang!”, “no huWAY” and “a sphincter says what?”

    I don't think people voting know how great Postcards From The Edge actually was. That film is way underrated.
