Boomerang was definitely a comedy but I really don't recall it being very funny

da croupier, Wednesday, 4 April 2012 19:19 (twelve years ago) link

i dunno man, watch the Boyz II Men and Toni Braxton and PM Dawn videos full of Eddie and other guys wearing nice suits and making bedroom eyes at noted comedy legends Robin Givens, Halle Berry and Grace Jones

some dude, Wednesday, 4 April 2012 19:19 (twelve years ago) link

OMG at Grace Jones in Boomerang: "Afterbirth!"

A Christmas Story is probably the most canonical-seeming movie that i'm genuinely surprised missed the top 100. maybe it would've done a lot better pre-Bad Santa.

some dude, Wednesday, 4 April 2012 19:19 (twelve years ago) link

and no one outside North America has ever seen A Christmas Story

wolf kabob (ENBB), Wednesday, 4 April 2012 19:27 (twelve years ago) link

There was a TV movie called Slither about a guy who turns into a snake (stars Dirk Benedict!)

Yes thank you AP and Poly you are both princes. Two Princes, indeed.

wolf kabob (ENBB), Wednesday, 4 April 2012 19:28 (twelve years ago) link

Slither's fun! I didn't vote for it, maybe I'll give it some love in the Horror poll

Race Against Rockism (Myonga Vön Bontee), Wednesday, 4 April 2012 19:29 (twelve years ago) link

thanks AP! good times!

some dude, Wednesday, 4 April 2012 19:30 (twelve years ago) link

Dunno why the hell I thought it was Slither

Race Against Rockism (Myonga Vön Bontee), Wednesday, 4 April 2012 19:30 (twelve years ago) link

well i just looked up "Porridge The Movie" on wikipedia and discovered that it's an LOL late 1970s britishes thing.

kurwa mać (Polish for "long life") (Eisbaer), Wednesday, 4 April 2012 19:30 (twelve years ago) link

loooooooool Porridge the Movie

gotta be a Britisher

I think I watched that once with my Dad but I don't remember any of it

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 4 April 2012 19:30 (twelve years ago) link

oh you know what, I am not thinking of Slither (which I did see a scene of), I'm thinking of that movie with Kevin Bacon

TREMORS, that is what I was thinking of

THIS TRADE SERVES ZERO FOOTBALL PURPOSE (DJP), Wednesday, 4 April 2012 19:32 (twelve years ago) link

okay is everyone clear on what Slither is now? lol

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 4 April 2012 19:33 (twelve years ago) link

haha maybe no movie named "Slither" even exists!

Race Against Rockism (Myonga Vön Bontee), Wednesday, 4 April 2012 19:34 (twelve years ago) link

Is Porridge the movie based on the TV show?

wolf kabob (ENBB), Wednesday, 4 April 2012 19:34 (twelve years ago) link

oh wait you mean SLITHER

I thought you meant Ernest Goes To Camp

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 4 April 2012 19:34 (twelve years ago) link

xpost YES :D

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 4 April 2012 19:35 (twelve years ago) link

AP, I appreciate your hard work, and you gain truth-factor respect for leaving "all time" out of the thread title.

Literal Facepalms (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 4 April 2012 19:36 (twelve years ago) link

slither is notable mainly because it is the only horror comedy that actually beats the evil dead trilogy at its own game

sfdgafhtehw (jjjusten), Wednesday, 4 April 2012 19:37 (twelve years ago) link

OK wait, my last word on the topic. From imdb:

4.1 Your rating: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 -/10 X Ratings: 4.1/10 from 5 users

here are more or less the 20 highest grossing (non-animated/musical) comedies of all time (adj. for inflation) that did not place in the poll: The Sting, The Graduate, Home Alone, Beverly Hills Cop, American Graffiti, Smokey And The Bandit, Men In Black, Mrs. Doubtfire, Crocodile Dundee, Gremlins, Meet The Fockers, Guess Who's Coming To Dinner, Pretty Woman, Home Alone 2, Three Men And A Baby, My Big Fat Greek Wedding, Austin Powers 2, Bruce Almighty, Rush Hour 2, Liar Liar

A Christmas Story is probably the most canonical-seeming movie that i'm genuinely surprised missed the top 100. maybe it would've done a lot better pre-Bad Santa.

I'd say pre-24-hour Christmas marathons. 24 hours of any one thing is, I'm sure, enough to make a lot of people kinda hate that thing.

OK I liked Slither and all but no.

Frank Youngenstein (Phil D.), Wednesday, 4 April 2012 19:41 (twelve years ago) link

Is Porridge the movie based on the TV show?

yes, according to Wikipedia.

tbh, i was kinda hoping that it was some sort of bizarre British kids' comedy, like a twisted "Andy Pandy" or some shit like that.

this is my highest-ranked movie that didn't make the list, it was my no. 2 choice - have people just not seen it or does no one love it as much as me (with the exception of the one person who gave it a first-place ranking)

congratulations (n/a), Wednesday, 4 April 2012 19:45 (twelve years ago) link

this may be the first thing that hungry4ass and i agree on btw
