    Spies like us - Dan Akroyd / Chevy Chase - little seen 80s comedy which has some hilarious bits , great cameos and whip fast dialogue.

        That’s nice. I’d still consider it more of a cult film for anyone not of that generation compared to the other films by these two.

        Yeah, but half the people here weren’t even born when it came out.

            Huh. I’ve never really thought of Ben Hur as a comedy.

                Oooo…yeahhhh, ummm…I’m gonna have to go ahead and sort of disagree with you there. Yeah, uh, this is a thread about comedies, and I’m just not sure that this is the caliber movie that we would want for an uncommon comedy.

        Common if you grew up with HBO in the 80s and 90s, otherwise maybe not so much.

      I loved the theme song for this when it came out.
