4. Yeah. Very well could be the funniest.
I rented the video a long time ago. Nobody'd ever heard of it, but it cracked me up.

Maybe the best cast Christmas movie of all time too. Dennis, Judy and Kevin were perfect. And the supporting cast was amazing too.

5. "Who would catch a criminal, and then let him go free?" "Republicans?"
Such a wonderful comedy. RIP, Ted Demme.

7. Full of great, quotable lines
Gus: You know what this family needs? A mute.

--

Rose: You're a "Wong"?
Gus: Well, my mother was Irish.
Rose: And your father...?
Gus: Wasn't.

--

Gus: You know what, lady? I'd like to tie you to the back of a fucking truck.
Rose: You don't have the balls.
(Gus leaps up from his chair toward Rose and is intercepted by Lloyd)
Lloyd: Don't do it; it's not worth it.
Gus: I fucking hate her, Lloyd!
Lloyd: I know, I know.
Gus: What is the matter with you? I thought mothers were sweet and nice a-a-and patient. I know loan sharks that're more forgivin' than you. Your husband ain't dead, lady. He's hidin'!

11. I have always loved that movie...
It tanked when it was first released, but I saw it on video and fell in love with it. The whole St. Lucia scene just cracks my ass up.

Another of my favorite lines: "Gag your Grandma."
