Louie de Funès for French humor (1970's) Excellent !!

Any good action movies with car chases like Speed, The Exterminator, etc.

Thrillers like, Silence of the Lambs, Der Kommisar (German Detective)

The Incredibles, great watching with the kids !

I have quite a few favorites. High on the list would be "The Blob" (the older one, with Steve McQueen).
Remember the scene where the kids are at the picture show and the blob "eats" the projectionist and the film runs out? When I was working at the local movie theater here as a projectionist during my high school years, I pulled that stunt during a midnight weekend show of The Blob. When the changeover came, I didn't do it, the reel ran out, and people started screaming their heads off in the audience. The manager came upstairs to see what the %$(^% was going on. He and I both had a good laugh over it.

Ah, the good old days... [Linked Image]

The "Blues Brothers."
[Elwood Blues Jake Blues has a fight over the police car Elwood Blues got after he traded away the original bluesmobile for a microphone]
Elwood: You don't like it?
Jake: No I don't like it...
[Elwood Blues floors the pedal and jumps over an open drawbridge]
Jake: Car's got a lot of pickup.
Elwood: It's got a cop motor, a 440 cubic inch plant, it's got cop tires, cop suspensions, cop shocks. It's a model made before catalytic converters so it'll run good on regular gas. What do you say, is it the new Bluesmobile or what?
[a brief thinking pause while Jake Blues lights a cigarette]
Jake: Fix the cigarette lighter.
Elwood: It's 106 miles to Chicago, we've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark and we're wearing sunglasses.
Jake: Hit it.
Elwood: Our Lady of Blessed Acceleration, don't fail us now.
Jake: First you traded the Cadillac in for a microphone. Then you lied to me about the band. And now you're gonna put me right back in the joint!
Elwood: They're not gonna catch us. We're on a mission from God.

And.....Caddieshack
Carl Spackler(Bill Murray): License to kill gophers by the government of the United Nations. Man, free to kill gophers at will. To kill, you must know your enemy, and in this case my enemy is a varmint. And a varmint will never quit - ever. They're like the Viet Cong - Varmint Cong. So you have to fall back on superior intelligence and superior firepower. And that's all she wrote.
Carl Spackler: I smell varmint. And the only good varmint is dead varmint, I think.
