Anybody recommend any good funny movies to rent? The last two I rented were Fun with duck and Jane, and Wedding Crashers.

Any of the American Pie movies...loved 'em, laughed cried...it was a moving experience. Love the small and meek Baby GS, Arizona (they got a mean Sherrif out there), and this wonderful forum.

You should go rent TORQUE!!!! That movie is the most realistic, sport bike, gang warfare, urban clothing trends, experimental motorcycle, angry face, rip roaringest good time!!!
I actually really liked Torque. Remove your mind from reality for 90 minutes and don't take it seriously. It is what it is... a very fun piece of crap. :thumb:

Hostel is supposed to be really good
The Hills Have Eyes comes out in a week or so, very good movie

The Hills Have Eyes comes out in a week or so, very good movie

Hostel is a horrible, horrible movie. Way over rated. One of the worst movies I've seen recently. "Scariest movie of the decade"? I think not. Worse movie of the decade, maybe. The beginning was basically a softcore porn, and the middle and end was just stupid.

The Hills Have Eyes, I saw in the theater. It was OK, but just like all of those other "tourist takes a wrong turn and gets lost and attacked by ____________". In this case it was mutant people that survived nuclear bomb tests. But if you like movies like that (Texas Chainsaw Massacre, etc), you might like this movie. Pretty graphic.

I +1 an earlier suggestion for Walk The Line. I think Walk The Line and Rent were two of the best movies of the year. Fun With duck and Jane was pretty good too, for a lighter side  :thumb:
