I need some movie comedies to watch tomorrow night because the kid's going to friend's to sleep over which means the Cookie Monster's coming to town. Please recommend. I have Foxtel, Prime, Netflix and Stan.

Sean of the Dead?

And then Hot Fuzz, and the World's End.

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I'm thinking Hot Fuzz, Caddy Shack and Up In Smoke.

Half Baked is my all time fave stoner flick.

Elvira

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Elvira? All I remember of Elvira is she used to appear before movies, like Bill Collins, but draped over the couch. That Elvira?

[–] Catfish@aussie.zone 2 points 2 years ago

Yes that Elvira. Full title is Elvira : Mistress of the Dark. It’s beautifully absurd. The accidentally cursed Southern Baptist picnic orgy stands out.

Spy is pretty fun

The Broken Lizard films are generally good for a Cookie Monster visit. Super Troopers is a classic. Beerfest too but that is kinda aimed at the drinkers.

The snozzberries taste like snozzberries..

Edit: Super Troopers is on Disney+ my bad. Apparently Foxtel Now has Beerfest.

I suggested Super Troopers to the man. That might be a goer. Also Flying high because I love that movie and haven't seen it in ages.

Don't worry I think I have Plex as well.

[–] bull@aussie.zone 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

After this I just put on Super Troopers now and this opening sequence is what legends are made of. Absolute peak cinema.
