I'll cosign this!

Good point...this whole "make the movies I want" will create a comeback tour for disgraced MAGA actors and other hangers on.

This gets worse the closer we look. Yeesh. I guess there are just so many great comedies, but the omissions are increasingly glaring.

Well, hell. Maybe I scanned to quickly. Yikes. All of those need to be in a list of top 100!

Definitely strange. Ghostbusters would definitely be in my top 10. I feel like Superbad was put in there to appear unbiased to younger audiences. I thought Home Alone was in there somewhere (Hughes writer, not director of coruse)

Totally agree. I love ZAZ but why this one out of all of them? It's a strange list, for sure, and maybe that's the point. I'm just glad to see a focus on comedy. Many great recommendations in here for those looking for a laugh.

The mixing of Crawford, director Michael Curtiz, cinematographer James Wong Howe, studio boss Jack Warner, and gossip queen Hedda Hopper and you have yourself a scene!

I wouldn't rule out the mob, either, given that it was early 60s LA.

Who knows, CIA probably. She was just in over hear head (anyone would be with JFK and RFK and that messed up family).

Yeah...same thing there. That story stinks to high heaven. Christopher Walken knows something.

Right!?! I feel like most media savvy folks, especially the film history crowd, have been settled on this for ages. (and happy birthday, again :)

We were here first!

Really the only similarity is organized crime (Bootlegging vs Cocaine). That's about it. And the title.
