Meh, fair enough.

Private Eyes - Don Knotts and Tim Conway.

Loved Cannery Row too.

Max Dugan Returns.

I just remembered a couple of others that I really liked

Into The Night which starred Jeff Goldblum and Michelle Pfeiffer.

The Gods Must Be Crazy (may not be unsung)

Beetlejuice had a ****ton of fanfare and publicity way back when.

Secret Admirer was pretty funny.
Once Bitten - Jim Carrey becomes a vampire

Running Scared is another favorite 80's comedy. They tried to turn Billy Crystal into an action star.

Unsung or not, Big Trouble In Little China and Midnight Run are probably my favorite 80's comedies (looking at my list, it appears that I favor action comedies).

One of the top 80's comedies is supposed to be A Fish Called Wanda. Even though I am a Monty Python fan, I didn't find it funny at all. The same holds true for The Blues Brothers. I never actually saw it until last year and didn't care for it. I think it might be one of those "you had to be there" deals.

Good call. Starred Kelly Preston and a young Lori Loughlin, one of my favorite 80's babes. :thumb:

Speaking of Kelly Preston, can't forget Mischief.
