I used to love Uncle Buck.
Planes, Trains & Automobiles
Funniest movie I think I’ve ever seen.
Animal House, even though I’ve seen it close to a hundred times, is still hilarious. Like two other posters on this thread, I, too, was pledging at the time and our house was fairly close to that.
I was actually the pledge-master of our fraternity when Animal House came out. Our whole fraternity (mostly nerds and outcasts, so we could really relate) went to see it together. It was one of my fondest memories of college - that and meeting my future wife. Of all the movies I’ve seen, comedy or not, it’s the one I’ve probably watched the most times. (Maybe Patton.)
Another comedy movie I’ve watched a lot is Office Space. I worked in a place just like that right out of grad school. I didn’t stay there long, and took a different path after that. (No, not a construction worker.)
And I can’t believe Spinal Tap isn’t on the list.
