Damn, what a movie. Fantastic. I've always loved comedy most when it's occasionally tempered with genuine emotion-- see Futurama, the UK Office, even Peep Show.

Anywho, good list! Though, if you had Chase's spat with Dan Harmon in mind when you mentioned Chase's jerkiness, I'd have to disagree; I'm one of those who thinks Harmon acted far worse during that fiasco.

Goddamn Tommy Boy Q_Q

One of my all time favorite movies. I think I'm closing in on watching it triple digits.

It is a fantastic little flick, with a lot of great performances. "I make car parts for the american working man, cause thats who I am and thats who I care about".

Ah, its so quotable I think I might be able to recite it by heart.

There is a lot of sad in it, Tommys dad dying is just...awful. Smack in the middle of the GLORIOUS duet...oh man.

Amazing grace playing while he walks into the car part factory...his solitude on the lake..."I sure could use a little wind...thanks dad!" Manly tears. They were shed.

Also...Chris Farley. WAY too soon :(
