    3 musketeers. you can't go wrong with three musketeers (and the one with keifer sutherland, mind you. not with craptaculer british actor)
    all 3 evil dead, although if your going for laughs just do army of darkness
    6 string samurai- best movie ever.
    the indiana jones movies are always worth another watch
    the musketeer. this is a prequal type thing to 3 musketeers... and it is worth it.
    the frighteners. funny. ass. shit.
    kate and leopold. romantic w/ slight sci-fi theme
    night of the living dead, classic. that would be the black and white.. and it has one of the funniest lines ever. "their dead man... really messed up."
    mel brooks. aka men in tights, history of the world, bla bla bla
    lastly: monty python.

    The Bencreature does have a few good points - I think I may be interested in seeing 'Kate and Leopold' and 'Army of Darkness' is about as classic as... well, OK, it can't really make par with Mel Brooks or Monty Python, but it's grand. Boomsticks do that to a movie.

    And he's right - Indiana Jones, Monty Python, and Mel Brooks are classic...
    Rachel, you HAVE seen 'Blazing Saddles,' right?

    Ok, broke out the DVD's.... (Took me so long.) Yeah.. you wanna talk about classics, why not Office Space? or Rudy? (that has Sean Astin in it). Or the latest Comic book turned movie, Spiderman? Then you have Ocean's Eleven... a suspensful technological comedy/mystery/robbery, based off Sinatra's old troop's original.

    Good marks for including Time Machine, Sum of all Fears (why not Patriot Games, Clear and Present Danger or Hunt for Red October? (Hunt is a classic too.), as well as Gone in 60 Seconds. (Best of the best for watching cars, if its the remake with Cage, but I think the original is good too.)

    Ah well, just a few *more* opinions...

    Office Space: FUNNY! Epitomizes why I will never have a desk job if I have any say in the matter. :-)
    Rudy: A classic... but kind of slow. Heart warming though.
    Spiderman: I need to see this one!
    Oceans Eleven: WONDERFUL! So intriguing, and great actors.
    Hunt For Red October: Andrew, this has been added. I have wanted to see this for a while... let's do it!
    Patriot Games: Also need to see it.
    Clear And Present Danger: Yups. Need to see it.

    :-) I like your taste.

    Three Musketeers: Andrew, if you haven't seen it, this is now on the list also. I LOVE it.
    Indiana Jones: Also classics. Love them.
    The Musketeer: Ok... not so much. I had issues. We're not wasting time on this one Andrew.
    Kate & Leopold: You'd like this one Andrew. It's good.
    Mel Brooks: Wonderful man. :-) I've seen Producers, Blazing Saddles, Young Frankenstien, Men In Tights, and Spaceballs. I think the ones I'm missing are the more obscure of his collection. They are so funny! :-)
    Monty Python: "Come back here! I'll bite your legs off!" :-)

    Now to continue looking at the comments. :-)
