I am so burnt out on Big, it is not even funny. It was my sisters favorite when we were younger and I have seen it way too many times.

Three of my favorites! I have seen Stripes so many times that I can almost recite the movie from start to finish.

"Lee Harvey, you are a madman! When you stole that cow, and your friend tried to make it with the cow. I want to party with you, cowboy".

my favorite quote from the movie.

Well My Science Project was not release as a comedy back in 1983 but I suppose now 25 years later it does seem a little funny

FindYourWay · 06-22-2009, 05:45 PM

I have a couple cornball comedies from the 80's that are super guilt pleasures of mine:

High Spirits
Club Paradise

Both of these films crack me up for no good reason.

anything John Candy or Eddie Murphy

Yes, even "The Golden Child"--
(It's as awful as heck, but this was the Beverly Hills Cop 1 days, when you just couldn't stop Murphy ad-libbing on-screen...Which, with this script, is a badge of integrity.
