The Birdcage!!! “You afrai a my Guatameloness?”
-Sam at the Service Center

We watched this movie so many times when I was little, one of my brothers made up his own trivia game to go along with it. I look forward to the “24-hours of A Christmas Story” marathon on TV every year.

Ralphie: [narrating] Now, I had heard that word at least ten times a day from my old man. He worked in profanity the way other artists might work in oils or clay. It was his true medium; a master. But, I chickened out and said the first name that came to mind.
“Schwartz!”
-Liz at Gaines

“you’re gonna shoot your eye out” (Poor Ralphie ;-)

I can’t narrow it down to a favorite, most funny line but I can relate one of the funniest scenes. Zach Galifianakis “Hollywood” is traveling with his dad’s ashes to LA. However the ashes are in a coffee can. His traveling companion Robert Downey Jr., “Peter Highman” doesn’t realize what is in the coffee can and somehow coffee is made and everyone is terrifically horrified. It tickled my funny bone from beginning to end and was similar to “Planes, Trains and Automobiles”. Didn’t remind me of “The Hangover” at all.

Funniest movie EVER! My girls and I watch it year round to enjoy the ridiculousness that is Will Ferrell dressed up as an elf! I love when Buddy tells the department store Santa “You stink. You smell like beef and cheese! You don’t smell like Santa.”
-Heather at the Service Center

“Elf” is a heartwarming and funny holiday movie that is fun for kids and adults. “Smiling is my favorite!”
-Toby at East Grand Rapids

Best line: I love syrup.
-Shannon at Comstock Park

Elastigirl: “I’m at the top of my game! I’m right up there with big dogs! Girls c’mon. Leave the saving of the world to men. I don’t think so. I don’t think so.”

I can watch this movie over and over.

Mean Girls! Who doesn’t love a movie full of chick revenge peppered with intelligent insults? After this movie came out, my friends and I were unconsciously quoting it for months.
“I wish I could bake a cake filled with rainbows and smiles and everyone would eat and be happy…”
-Kelly at Caledonia

Christmas Vacation!

Clark: Can I refill your eggnog for you? Get you something to eat? Drive you out to the middle of nowhere and leave you for dead?
Eddie: Naw, I’m doing just fine, Clark.
-Tammy at the Service Center

Funniest individual line: “Gator’s bitches better being wearing their Jimmies.”

Funniest dialogue: No, I don’t like you. I think you’re a fake cop. The sound of your piss hitting the urinal, it sounds feminine. If you were in the wild, I would attack you, even if you weren’t in my food chain. I would go out of my way to attack you. If I were a lion and you were a tuna, I would swim out in the middle of the ocean and freaking eat you and then I’d bang your tuna girlfriend.

Two unemployed musicians accidentally witness the St. Valentine’s Day Massacre and flee to Miami disguised as female musicians.
With Tony Curtis, Jack Lemmon and Marilyn Monroe

Funniest Line

Jack Lemmon : I’m engaged !
Tony Curtis: Whose the lucky girl?
Jack Lemmon: I am !

Okay, I think you need to picture Jack Lemmon in full drag, dancing on the bed, shaking some maracas’…just cracks me up!
-Janice at Grandville

A man looks up his his dream girl from high school, even though his one date with her back then was a complete disaster.
Mary: Is that… is that hair gel?
-Susan at Plainfield

Dustin Hoffman plays a tempermental unemployed actor who remakes himself as a woman to get a part in a soap opera.
[during Dorothy Michaels’ screen test]
Rita: I’d like to make her look a little more attractive, how far can you pull back?
Cameraman: How do you feel about Cleveland?
Rita: Knock it off.
-Susan at Plainfield

“Does Jeff Know?”
-Penni at the Service Center

Features wagon wheel tables, extreme-emotion-inspiring deli food, and the phrase “baby fish mouth,” is the clear choice for funniest movie.
-Monica at the Service Center

“I’ll have what she’s having.”
-Penni at the Service Center

My all time favorite…(Frau Blooker….Nahhhhhh…)
