To explain a little more on this Macias peculiarity, the movies that make it to this VIP list, or should I say VHM (Very Hilarious Movie) list is not necessarily a classic but more of a light-hearted comedy. Surprisingly, the movie does NOT have to be categorized in our top-5-favorite-movies-of-all-time list. It's the kind of movie that you could pop in during lunch break just to watch at least 20 minutes of it (as was the case with Mean Girls). It's also the kind that you know so well you could fastforward through the beginning to get to the good parts.
My latest favorite is Just Friends; I've already seen it about 7 times but I can watch it some more if you need some companionship. All the subtle humor just keeps me wanting "more, MORE!!!" Not to mention, Ryan Reynolds is not ugly.
Some of my favorite lines:
Chris: "In some countries they'd spank you for that!"
Girl: "Uh, I love to travel."
Samantha: "I'm helping promote vegetarianism in 3rd world countries."
Samantha: "What if we got someone like Bono to sing backup? I'd be all 'forgiveness is the way,' and he he'd go 'forgiveness everyday' only all Bono-ee."
Mike: "You'll always be fat to me!"
Samantha: "Let's go Chris, there's pee on the floor, [hiss]."
Chris: "I'll just enjoy this glass of water. [Takes a sip of water] I'm stuffed."
Chris: "Mom, I need my skates to show off my talents."
Chris: "Then I get caught in this sort of kiss-hug limbo type thing, I don't know what that is but I end up shaking her entire body."
Samantha: "I hate this town!!!!"
Clark: "The man's juice..."
Samantha: "I'm sorry I'm not poor."
Among many, many others, I don't want to ruin it for you.
