Also, what about the entire Naked Gun series? Probably one of funniest series in cinema history.

"Take him out of town and finnish the JOB!"
"But what about dinner?"
"Kronk..."
"Desert?"
"All right, desert..."
"And coffee?"
"All right, a quick cup of coffe, THEN TAKE HIM OUT OF TOWN AND FINNISH THE JOB!!!"

Naked Gun too is probably the funniest movie series ever.

I like the time when the huge missle runs into a fireworks factory and then Neilson turns around to the gathering crowed saying "There's nothing to see here, continue on." as the fireworks explode in the background with people running out of the building.

I absolutley love the Ice Age :D
Emperor's new groove was great too!
I think this one is called something like "mad about mambo" or something like that, most people haven't even heard of it so i'd say that's underrated,
bye bye:)

Anything Mel Brooks :p




Blazing Saddles, Robin Hood: Men in Tights, etc. etc.

great stuff no one talks about anymore.

Mullet 12-02-2003 19:00

To quote Spaceballs (and a huge inside joke between my friends): BARF!!! How Mel Brooks can get one word over so well and have it be so funny I will never know.

Another underrated film: Mystery Science Theater 3000: The Movie.

"Nanu"
"Hi there!"

Classic.

I dunno I think the Breakfast Club was a pretty sweet movie, I don't know if it's underrated though...



AH I got one Rock & Roll High School, definetly a sweet movie but it was really underrated, it's from the 80's I think but it was still a sweet movie.

Excellent Movie, but I have the feeling that the sequel is going to ruin the original

Shawshank Redemption and The Usual Suspects are two of the greatest movies EVER MADE!!!!!!

But the most underrated movie ever, that I bet no one has seen: Noises Off . It's a british comedy that i nearly pooed my pants seeing!! Terrific stuff!!

Ditto..


Shawshank redemption- yes, another great movie..


and what about the Green Mile? wasn't that directed by the same guy?

The most underrated movie ever has to be one that 9 out of 10 of you who dont personally know me have never even heard of.....Santa VS The Snowman.....its a great movie....by the same person as Olive the Other Reindeer...which you probably havent heard of either

Ash 23-02-2003 14:37

Pi, Evil Dead 2, Soulkeeper, and a few other movies which I cant qite recall at this moment.

BTW, all Sam Raimi movies are pretty dang good.
