Here's another silly high school movie:

Fast Times at Ridgemont High

I love the 1960 Buick that Judge Reinhold drove

 

[gkpk]

Spies Like Us......i could watch this movie over and over and never get sick of it.

The Three Amigos......funny as hell

 

[CoventryCat86]

Spaceballs
Blazing Saddles

Mel Brooks is another one of my favorites :thumbs:

Oh and I cheated a bit, I added Rocky Horror Picture Show to my original list. I've seen that one MANY, MANY times

"Let's do the Time Warp again........"

 

[gkpk]

Hrmmm lets see.

Howbout :

Johnny Dangerously

Weird Science......Kelly Le Brock was gorgeous in this film.

 

[Josh]

Bleh, I don't know how I didn't put O Brother Where Art Thou? on my list. Kudos, emodx.

 

[MonkeyK]

Lots of good ones listed so far

I'd add
Fight Club
The Nightmare Before Christmas
Drunken Master
Princess Mononoke

 

[STYX&STONED]

Scarface

Happy Gilmore

Better of Dead

Hollywood Nights

 

[Treamayne]

In the interest of diversity - I'll only mention a few that have yet to be covered (rather than rehash a few obviously great films)

SLC Punk - if you haven't seen this you are wrong. A refreshing change from modern hollywood with great monologue. Matt Lillard Rules.

Raising Cain - Scary....

Seven - Really scary ...

(above are in the freaky "too easy to be real" scary not the stupid monster that won't die horror silly scary)

JSA (Joint Security Area) - Korean film that does wonders for mytery / drama and originated the multi-lingual movies. Main Character is a Swiss - Korean - all dialog with Koreans is subtitled Korean, all dialog with non-Koreans is English (subtitled in Hangul for the Korean Market) Story is excellant and overall quality (save one really bad Swiss actor) is Hollywood grade or better. Available at Amazon.com in DVD all region.

Saving Private Ryan: if you didn't cry at the end you don't have a heart.
LOTR
Pulp Fiction

The Princess Bride :thumbs:
