roof, thank you for recognizing blazing saddles and animal house. caddyshack is definitely #1. but y'all missed a couple... trading places? napoleon dynamite? monty python and the holy grail?
Oh yeah, and what about Weekend at Bernie's?? C'mon guys.
Blazing Saddles is a definite. What about other Mel Brooks works of comedic genius? History of the World Part 1?
