Tropic Thunder (2008) Directed by Ben Stiller I heard a lot of “well I guess there’s some funny parts” but personally I thought it was absolutely genius.

House of Sand and Fog (2003) Directed by Vadim Perelman Just because this film is nearly perfect doesn’t mean I’m not going to say “Fuck this movie and it’s total bullshit needlessly depressing ending”.

Silent Movie (1976) - The interesting thing here is to watch a silent color film and it just happens that every couple hours or so they throw in a pretty funny gag.

Slaughterhouse Five (1972) – Okay, I just can’t seem to think of any clever way to say how knocked out I am by the genius on every level (ie cinematography, casting editing etc.) of this adaptation of the Vonnegut classic.

Old Joy (2006) –   This is some of the best writing ever and once Will Oldham comes in, this movie  explodes out of it’s “hard to watch local/indie” first few minutes.

A Star Is Born (1976 remake) – I laughed a couple times what with the kitch and all but mostly you just almost hurl.
