I know I'm in the minority but I love Major League II. So many quotes.
I really enjoy it.

PCU and Pitch Perfect..
And Grandma's Boy might be a movie that people don't know about, but who the hell thinks it's lame or unfunny? :tard:
Out Cold... seems like no one has seen it
In the 80s I rarely watched mainstream Hollywood films, opting instead for a bunch of mopey artsy films. I spent my weekends at the old art-house theatre on Hillsborough Street in Raleigh watching indie films and classics, and it really bummed me out when the theatre was torn down to make way for a McDonalds.
But I went to see Tom Hanks' Big on a whim (or maybe because my date wanted to see it and I wanted to get lucky that night), and it really blew me away. It was a very smart and funny fantasy and I enjoyed it immensely, despite the manipulative feel-good tone of the film. I'm surprised that its not considered one of the all-time comedy classics.
In hindsight, I don't know the movie was that exceptional, or if my mood and emotional reaction at the time of my screening made it stick out in my mind as somehow better than it was.
I don't see much talk of "Fear of a Black Hat" but it's one of my favorites.
Man, Billy Elliot is awesome too. Love that movie.
I submit Bottlerocket.
I second Wet Hot American Summer, Out Cold, PCU, and Cable Guy. All excellent motion pictures.
Old Cold is awesome. PCU is a classic - you're not alone there.
I've always gotten crap for liking Ghostbusters II. It's obviously not as good as the original, but it still has its merits.
Also a fan of Just Friends. Severely underrated.
Ghostbusters II is great.
