minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink4•edit-22 years agoIf I recall, that was a huge hit when it came out. I wouldn’t call it an uncommon film.
minus-squareQuasarlinkfedilinkEnglish3•edit-22 years agoThat’s nice. I’d still consider it more of a cult film for anyone not of that generation compared to the other films by these two.

minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink2•2 years agoYeah, but half the people here weren’t even born when it came out.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink-1•2 years agoSo for that matter, one could respond with Cleopatra, or Ben Hur?
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish4•2 years agoHuh. I’ve never really thought of Ben Hur as a comedy.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink-2•2 years agoWhat type of movie it is is irrelevant. The point remains that old and outdated, doesn’t mean uncommon.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish1•2 years agoOooo…yeahhhh, ummm…I’m gonna have to go ahead and sort of disagree with you there. Yeah, uh, this is a thread about comedies, and I’m just not sure that this is the caliber movie that we would want for an uncommon comedy.
