Just finished watching "its a mad, mad, mad world"
1963 version. What a great set of actors and all the cameos. Such a group from those days. Look up the cast and see all the actors and actress's that were offered parts, just outstanding.

2. "1963 version"
Is there another version? If so, what good is it? The version you speak of, with many many stars is one of the funniest movies ever made. At least in my opinion.

3. I believe there was a remake
a few years ago, not the same name but same idea. Can't find anything on it and maybe I was just dreaming, didn't really watch it since I don't really enjoy remake kind of things.

5. My friends and I saw the
1963 version in 1963. Everyone in the movie theater, including us, groaned loudly and booed. We thought it was awful. By the time it was over, lots of people in the audience had left.

Maybe we'd like it now because of all the cameo appearances by movie stars who are now dead.

6. Saw it as a kid.
Then saw it again last year on DVD with rich sound. It wasn't as great as I remembered it, but enjoyable. All the cameos were fun.

10. I never saw that one. I do remember that my mother saw it when
I was a kid. And she did like it, I believe.
Maybe I can try it.
