Hollywood Knights...VERY underrated movie!
Volare........
He played it with is di.ck..!!!
Lots of good ones listed.
Planes, Trains, and Automobiles
Trading Places
Fast Times at Ridgemont High
Man who DVed this lmao
You probably know this but the studios were insistent the movie be in color. Mel Brooks said he would not make the film unless it was black and white.
We both have our fans I think.
Dr Strangelove
The Jerk
Raising Arizona
These are three that I really like that I didn’t notice mentioned.
Two of my absolute favorites are MP and the holy grail and Young Frankenstein
Young Frankenstein
Monty Python & the Holy Grail
Blazing Saddles
Caddy Shack
40 Year Old Virgin
Two Utes. What’s a Ute. What’s a Grit? Magic Grits. Gotta Love My Cousin Vinny.
Planes, Trains and Automobiles was classic pairing of Steve Martin and John Candy. Really miss John Candy
An absolute talent. He was the best part of Splash.
"He held it with his dik" was the line I think talking about when the 1 armed violinist finished playing and grabbed the bow
Try to make a point of watching this one around Thanksgiving every year. Candy was great and was often used by John Hughes. Shame neither lived longer.
Forgot about "Stripes" was so dum it was actually funny
What no "English Patient"
What about Bob? (Baby Steps!)
The first Police Academy was good.
The old Pink Panther movies were classics.
Coming to America
Dirty Rotten Scoundrels (Oklahoma! Oklahoma! Oklahoma!)
Best in Show is incredibly funny.
Candy was one of the best support guys ever, though not the best lead (Hello Dan Aykrod).
My fave line of "Freddie's" in splash was when he was trying to get his brother Allen away from the press mob...
Freddie: Is anyone here from Penthouse Magazine?
(pause, no response from the mob)
Freddie: Then we ain’t talkin.
Classic Candy
One flew over the cuckoo' s nest. Would fit in nicely.
1) Mash
2) Snitch
3) Blazing saddles
4) Young Frankenstein
5) MP and the Holy Grail.
The only movie I can think of where Aykroyd was the sole lead was Dr Detroit. Not good. Paired with Belushi, Eddie, Chevy or Hanks it worked though.
Akroyd and Candy were good in The Great Outdoors. 6lb steak. I don't know if that is possible.
Candy would have been the lead there but Akroyd had a big part too.
