I've got an idea we'll make a movie and he'll be the greatest race car driver. We'll make another movie and he'll be the greatest jet fighter. We'll make yet another one and he'll be the greatest trial attorney even tho he never tried a case previous,somebody get me a bucket

Wait, I didn't realize we were talking about Joe Pesci.

The Spanish Prisoner should be here.  A serious Steve Martin?  Yes, a mildly dark character.  A David Mamet directed film.  Think it was 97 or so. I saw it in college.   Campbell Scott also in it.

The 28 Most Underrated Movies Ever Made | Marie Claire
I was gonna scoff at the source being Marie Claire, but that's a very solid list.  A couple of clunkers but of them solid-to-very good movies and largely underappreciated.

I had a huge thing for Liv Tyler in the 90s so both Empire Records and That Thing You Do are way up there on my list.

Why I haven't been participating in this thread... I've only even seen 4 of those. 

BTW Big Fan was a great movie. Such dark comedy. Highly recommend. Patton Oswalt was great. 

Likewise, Young Adult with Patton Oswalt alongside Charlize Theron was also really really good. Again, dark comedy, but if that's your thing, it's a good one.

Ha!  Love it.  My kids watched that movie for the first time a couple of years ago and decided that Danny LaRusso was the antagonist.  And sure enough...

A bit of an odd movie, one of Spielberg's first, called "Duel".

Best Road Trip Movies: Duel Review - The News Wheel


 1971, Universal TV purchased a short story called “Duel” that had originally appeared in Playboy magazine. They hired the author adapt his own work into a teleplay, shot the project in 13 days, and aired it as an episode of ABC’s Movie of the Week series. The reception was so positive that they decided to lengthen the running time from 74 to 90 minutes and distributed it in Europe as a feature length film. Duel attracted some positive reviews overseas, but in all honesty, we probably wouldn’t be talking about it at all in the year 2014 if not for the fact that it was directed by a 25-year old film school dropout named Steven Spielberg.

Never saw the soup nazi episode but heard it was funny.

I have my doubts.

Kramer was the only talent
Part of it is on YouTube
