Ok, come on Blue !
How about Ferris Bueller’s DAy Off? Or Some LikeIt Hot, Dr Strangelove, Forrest Gump, Wedding Crashers…
this is SPINAL TAP (and I bet its number 11)
Wait, the clue was Dope-slanted comedies and Office Space wasn’t on there? Have you ever READ the board?!? I call Shenanigans! Shenanigans I say!!!
I’ll throw National Lampoon’s Vacation and A Christmas Story into the mix for consideration, but I agree that This is Spinal Tap has to be up there.
If I explain now, it will give clues to blue, bug me in the AM and I will explain why I left it off.
Spinal Tap was my first idea when I first saw the question so…yeah.
I know…i figgered it would be the first to go…kept waiting…and waiting…I wanted to shout it out.
see what happens when I only get one vote?
Just got back from Spamalot and it was WONDERFUL!!!
See it if it comes to your neck of the woods.
BTW Struan - They make fun of Scots. What’s not to love?
Spinal Tap was my first choice too.
How about Caddyshack ?
Aaaaaawwww, I trust you, you crazy kid.
How about South Park: Bigger, Longer, Uncut?
If no one else likes that answer, I’ll throw in with votes for Some Like it Hot.

Caddyshack was what I first thought of.
Dr. Strangelove is a good fit for the board I think.
Spinal tap works too
No one’s mentioned “There’s Something About Mary.”
But I vote for “Spinal Tap.”
Gotta say, though – if you look at the juxtaposition of #1 and #2 – this is a screwy list.
“And all that was left was a little green globule on the seat.” (Or something like that.)
Spinal Tap, baby!

Oh, what about Pulp Fiction? Not really a comedy per se, but you know, this crowd…
