And planes trains is one of my fave films of all time.

Mine, too, Roba.
However, the missus deemed it to be "alright".
She also then told me that, as far as she is concerned, John Candy has never been funny!!!!!

Planes, Trains and Automobiles
Home Alone
Uncle Buck

I disagreed too, so don't worry!

And let's not forget The Blues Brothers. He was awesome in that!

I like Space Balls too.

....How did I forget that 1.... oh well I instantly fink of Belushi and Ackroyd when ppl say Blues Brothers

**Frag Kebab** · by **Frag Kebab** on Wed Aug 19, 2009 4:37 pm

They do dominate the film, but he's there in support, and gets at least two lines that me and a friend quote quite often to each other.

Right I'm getting Lemony to write to your Missus Frag

It's sad that it has come to this, but I agree, and see no other options left.

Let's not forget cool runnings - "You've got to riiiise above it"
oh and Brewsters Millions - he was good in that too.

**Frag Kebab** · by **Frag Kebab** on Wed Aug 19, 2009 5:40 pm

Oddly, she loves Brewsters Millions. I guess she either doesn't like him in it, or has let that one slip from her mind. I'll check!

Should i also mention that she didn't like The Usual Suspects either. Going so far as to say "I've seen 125 films better than that".
I requested the list, and am still waiting for it.

**LemonyVodka5** · by **LemonyVodka5** on Wed Aug 19, 2009 5:41 pm

1941
Stripes - a personal favourite
Volunteers
And of course.....drum roll please.....Sesame Street Presents Follow That Bird!

**Bennett** · by **Bennett** on Wed Aug 19, 2009 5:50 pm

Cool Runnings is a classic may have to look up some of the others.

If you like your spoofs (naked gun etc) I enjoyed Hot Shots Part Deux :P

**Frag Kebab** · by **Frag Kebab** on Wed Aug 19, 2009 5:54 pm

I haven't seen those films for years. I think I'll have to orders Stripes though, as it definately deserves a place in my collection!

Films are one of the main things that me and the missus disagree about. She's slowly expanding her tastes, or learning to just shut up and watch films I tell her are good.

**Bennett** · by **Bennett** on Wed Aug 19, 2009 5:57 pm

I struggle to get the missus to watch anything half decent. Last 2 she chose

Boy in the striped pyjamas - CRAP
The Reader - Swicthed off halfway through also crap about some woman sleeping with a 15 year old - Wierd and CRAP

I got a choice Taken - Not too Bad,Little far fetched in places but we both enjoyed it.

Have The Kite Runner on lovefilm rental at the mo that the missus picked but daren't put it on :P
