40: Gremlins: I know we all love this one..but who has actually re-watched it in the last 20 years?
39: Out Cold: Just trust me on this one..I saw it by accident in theatres and between me, my date and the one other person in the theatre with us...someone was constantly laughing.
38: The Hebrew Hammer: Ok, I was drunk when I watched this..but I remember laughing so hard that the concern of peeing a little crossed my mind.
37: Buffy the Vampire Slayer: this has Luke Perry in it..he's a dreamboat. /discussion.
36: Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey: "You might be a king or a little street sweeper, but sooner or later you dance with the reaper."
35: Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure: Most Non-Non-Non heinous imo!
34: Pump up the Volume: This movie was not only awesome, it was ridiculously sexy to me back in the day, and is probably the only movie on this list that Siskel and Ebert didn't hate..bastards.
33: Cheaters: I completely mined this movie for one liners, epic lines re: adoption and karate.
32: Short Circuit: This is the movie that I have watched the most..at a record 102 times.
31: Nottinghill: Ok, hear me out on this one..this movie contains one of my most favourite characters ever written into the background. THIS is the one that you watch with your wife, you will laugh with Spike and the supporting cast..and then get laid after when the romantic ending happens.

What took so long?
The Monster Squad
Totally Awesome
Fanboys
Dead Man On Campus
There's obviously a lot more to add, but these are some crucial additions.
Anthony Edwards trying to be a movie star . . . lolz
Oooooooh . . . . The Breakfast Club.
All of these were on the original list..oh and The Breakfast club..but I tried to stick to ones that people weren't likely to have watched in years. Ferris Bueller's Day off is on TV too often imo. Pete and I debated some of these multiple times, we're such geeks.
Other ones that just missed the list were:
Heathers
Stay tuned
Mighty Ducks
Short Circuit 2
Gremlins 2
Beautiful Girls
Envy
National Lampoon's Van Wilder
Clerks II
Ghostbusters 2
Harry and the Henderson's
Sixteen Candles
Earth Girls are Easy
Never Ending Story
Ghost Dad (more of a sarcastic one)
..off the top of my head.
The only one that even sorta fits under the 'silly' umbrella..don't you think?
thread fail, even thought it must have taken forever!
~Revenge of the Nerds
~Trading Places
~Eddie Murphy Raw
~Commando
~Conan
~Mad Max
~Willow
~Howard the Duck
~War Games
~Anything with Steve Martin!!! The Jerk at the very least.
Accepted
Employee of the Month (probably only really funny to those who have worked in a grocery store)
Beer League (answered the often asked epic question "What the hell ever happened to Ralph Macchio; and this shit hole of a movie somehow warrented 2 discs! Great for the terrible jokes though.)
Road House
Punisher (from 2004 with Travolta as the big bad guy; contains one of the greatest over the top fight scenes between Punisher and Kevin Nash in a Popeye shirt)
Bubba Ho-Tep (How the hell did this one miss your list Kristy??? Bruce Campbell as Elvis Presley, who pulled a life switch in the mid 60's with the greatest Elvis impersonator alive, is now in an old age home and, along with a black guy that believes he is JFK, has to destroy an evil mummy)
My Name Is Bruce (again, Bruce Campbell = WIN)
Shoot Em Up
Crank
Crank 2 (these three all fall under the so intentionally bad they're awesome category)
And last but not least, a poker addition to the bunch: The Grand. Phenomenal cast playing awesome random rolls. Filmed as a mockumentary, this thing makes me laugh every time I turn it on.
Just remembered this movie. As far as stupid or "silly" movies go, this one is up there.
Evil Alien Conquerors (Don't mind the spanish, it's in english)
YouTube - Alienados do Espaço (Trailer)
Still, I'm shocked that these aren't on your list, or anyone else's for that matter. Both are epic features with amazing dialogue and story telling.
First, the all time BESTEST movie EVER MADE!!! I watched it...I OWN it...I piss the wife and kid off EVERY time I play it!!
And secondly, everyone's favourite high school love story of ALL time. (Admit you, you stop channel surfing every time you find it on, and your feet are tapping to the music as you smile)
Now THAT'S quality entertainment!!
Oh I do like some of his stuff. But clearly...society of giant bugs at war with humans? Classic story telling.
Ace Ventura: Pet Detective
Dumb & Dumber
The Mask.
South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut.
Christmas Vacation
I think everyone else has the 'must see' list covered.
Seeing John Candy made me lol. I miss his comic genius.
Spaceballs: That's the same combination as my luggage!!!
Snakes on a plane? Get the motha fuckin snakes off ma motha fuckin plane!
Holy Shit!
I thought I was the only one that had ever seen this!!! It's freaking great!
"Who could resist such an offfer? ONLY AN ASSHOLE KROKER!"
Might I humbly suggest....
I saw the tagline somewhere of "The Power of Christ Impales You" and I was sold.... that's right, Jesus and his luche libre friend take on the undead....
Mark
There are some amazing adds here, but also WAYYYYYY too many people who missed this quote and the thread title and are using this thread to show their l33t movie tastes.
Yup, Bruce Campbell is amazing..
Ace Ventura and indeed MOST of Jim Carey's early work is unwatchable today. (believe me I've tried)
Anything critically acclaimed, serious, on repeat on AFC or still for sale for more than 9.99 is ineligible for this thread.
