Princess Bride-"Stop that Rhyming I mean it...Anybody want a peanut"

A Christmas Story-"I triple dog dare ya"

Grumpy Old Men-"So you eat bacon, drink beer and smoke cigarettes, is there a point?...Nah, there ain't no point, I just like that story."

and...The Cannonball Run (Must have been fun as hell to film, just watch the out takes)

If you liked Cannonball Run you have to see an older movie called
"Gumball Ralley" It was the basis for Cannonball and it is wonderful!

Hi, Monker! Glad to see this topic brought you back out into the open!

Your list reminded me of how much I loved Star Trek IV - The Voyage Home, my favorite of the series. Gotta add that one. I like all the Star Trek Movies, except V very much, but IV was my favorite.

Also, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid need to be added to my list as well.
