There's no question you've seen it - but hey try the 'Don't be a menace to South Central while drinking your juice in the hood' - I swear it's the best movie I've ever seen.

I beg to differ.

Friday, Next Friday and Friday 3 (what's that called?), Road Trip, The New Guy, or Half Baked are all funnier.

great...didnt have that yet...any more ideas...doesnt matter what genre

Equilibrium was a real surprise -- a very good B-movie. Kind of like if John Woo decided to re-imagine Orwell's 1984. Excellent fight choreography, good acting, decent script.

Spirited Away is a nice bit of anime, more like a Hans Christian Andersen fairy tale than an action fantasy movie.

Miller's Crossing is just out on DVD and is an intelligent and well-acted period gangster tale.

anything by Cheech and Chong

I have to seriously disagree, I think don't be a menace is better than all those, but you have to have seen all or at least some of the movies it is making fun of. South Central, boys in the hood, menace to society, juice, etc.
