This man makes me laugh like no one else.

I've finally seen Waiting For Guffman, and other than that i've seen Best In Show.

Unfortunately, i've never seen This is Spinal Tap (yeah, I know, throw me off the boards). But, any other Christopher Guest fans in the sewer?

I haven't seen all three, so I should be exiled. Anyway, I'm gonna check them out because of the recommendation.

Awww geez, you MUST! BIS and WFG are 2 of the funniest films i've ever seen...the wit is just so outstanding. Fred Willard practically steals BIS, he's so hilarious. The discussion about Christopher Columbus has me laughing every time.

I have yet to catch Best in Show in its entirety, it's on cable all the time but I always seem to catch it in the middle. Guess I'll have to break down and rent it.

Guest is great, and he gets to sleep with Jamie Lee Curtis...

FINALLY i've found someone who finds Jamie Lee Curtis hot.

Kickass!

My next mission- to find someone who likes Demi Moore.

I hope I'm not the only one who really just doesn't "get" Guffman and Best in Show.

Waiting for Guffman is my favorite of the three. Perhaps you have to have spent a bit of time in the theatre to really appreciate it.

This is Spinal Tap comes next in line for me. Great stuff, but it gets overlong.

Best in Show is still funny, and I have it (as well as the others) in my DVD collection, but I find it the most uneven of the three.

They're all worth seeing!

Oh, and now it can be told: the reason for the divorce -- my ex-wife insists that that isn't Jamie's husband.

That's why I love Spinal Tap so much, I was a roadie for a band in Savannah when it was released on video, and it was our Holy Grail. And that was back before it reached its huge cult status, so no one knew where all those crazy quotes we were repeating came from.

one thing I liked about spinal tap (special edition dvd), was the intro to the menu...the irreverance helped set the tone for the feature.
