Plains Trains and Automobile’s

Hell yeah! Excellent road trip movie and one of the best holiday movies there is. Steve Martin and John Candy were brilliant together.

This is the only movie i watch almost every year. I don't know if it's just pure nostalgia, but i always just loved the movie. John Candy plays the fuck out of his character. Like Steve Martin legitimate felt bad after the scene in the motel where he gave him a lot of shit. Every time i watch it i think about how absolutely annoying he is, and after his monologue i go: well maybe it's not that bad.

Apparently a lot of people hate that movie.

it's so good. Candy's character in PT&A and Home Alone are some of my favorites (he recorded all his stuff for home alone in a single fucking DAY of filming! with tons of adlibs that never made it into the final! as a favor to Reitmann and took only scale pay, so like, a few hundred bucks!)

I do need to re-watch Kung pao but I was trained wrong ....as a joke.

Good list. I think the only one I'd disagree with is Mallrats. Clerks is still brilliant, but last time I put on Mallrats it didn't hit at all.

That kid is back on the escalator again!

I hope his pants get caught and a bloodbath ensues!

Some OJ got in the wine for Naked Gun, so it's more like prison wine.
