I'm going to be a bit picky here.
I thought the original point of the thread was to list movies which were
unintentionally enjoyable, which instantly discounts the
Evil Dead trilogy,
Attack of the Killer Tomatoes,
Blackadder, and of course
Airplane, which I agree is the funniest farce ever written.
Dr Rumack: "Can you fly this plane?"
Striker: "Surely you can't be serious?"
Dr Rumack: "I am serious, and don't call me Shirley."
Striker: "My orders came through. My squadron ships out tomorrow; we're bombing the storage depots at Daiquiri at 1800 hours. We're coming in from the north, below their radar."
Elaine: "When will you be back?"
Striker: "I can't tell you that? It's classified."
Dr Rumack: "You'd better tell the Captain we've got to land as soon as possible, we've got to get them to the hospital."
Elaine: "A hospital . . what is it?"
Dr Rumack: "It's a big building with patients, but that's not important right now."
Dr Rumack: "What flying experience have you had?"
Striker: "I flew single engine fighters in the Air Force, but this plane has four engines. It's an entirely different kind of flying, altogether."
Dr Rumack & Elaine: "It's an entirely different kind of flying."
Kramer: "Striker, what kind of weather are you in up there?"
Elaine: "Rain!"
Striker: "And a little ice."
Elaine: "And a little ice."
Kramer: "How's it handling?"
Striker: "Sluggish, like a wet sponge."
Elaine: "Sluggish, like a wet sponge."
Kramer: "Alright, Striker, you're doing just fine."
Striker: "It's a damn good thing he doesn't know how much I hate his guts."
Elaine: "It's a damn good thing you don't know how much he hates your guts."
There's nothing so funny as a joke told with a straight face, and that film did it perfectly. The entire script can be found all over the internet, but I filched these quotes from
here
And whatever happened to the lovely Julie Hagerty? Aside from
Lost in America with Albert Brooks, I haven't seen her in anything else. I'll nip over to the
IMDb after this post and find oot, methinks.
Anyway, I'd like to nominate
The Giant Spider Invasion, a late '70s horror film which featured only one giant spider, but you don't feel cheated because it was so funny - they made it by covering a VW Beetle in bearskin rugs, and if you don't believe me you better rent it.
