National lampoons European Adventure is funnier. And what about Airplane too, a joke every minute, nearly had urinary incontinence watching it lol

National Lampoons European Adventure is excellent, very funny. Remember Mel smith as the owner of the guest house in London and the Griswalds trying to get off one of our roundabouts, I could do with watching a cheer up film like that, halarious :hilarious: :hilarious: thanks for that eddie :)

Airplane must be one of the true funny films, the off the cuff remarks, "Roger, Over, don't call me Shirley, I picked the wrong day to give up cigarettes, alcohol" and (the other addictions) the disco scene, too many to mention :hilarious: :joyful:

You love to watch ? :)
I love most versions of "A Christmas Carol" by Charles Dickens....Always get teary eyed when Scrooge becomes good and becomes kind, and generous etc. By the way, my young daughter asked me what Tiny Tim was dying from? Any suggestions?o_O

Oh a good question, probably, something like Cystic Fibrosis ? Polio ? I'm just guessing these conditions, some children always seemed to be the poorly ones :doctor: :( But a very happy ending for all, yay :D

Thanks for that, Rrb.....I told her he had AIDS.....Thankfully she's too young to know what that is or how people get it... imagine Tiny Tim as a heroin addict or being sexually promiscuous?!o_O

She's way too young to understand....It's a tradition for us to watch versions of this story around this time each year so I can introduce polio and / or cystic fibrosis as the possible illness TT had. Still too complicated at the moment for her....And no I did not tell her Tiny Tim was a heroin addict or very promiscuous!!!!Just my warped sense of humour!!!!;)

Watched Airplane on dvd yesterday and still laughed to near urinary incontinence lol. Lloyd Bridges was so funny with his "picked the wrong day to quit" lines and the best was "looks like I picked the wrong day to quit glue sniffing". Sooo fab and the auto-pilot was great too. Got Airplane 2 to watch tonight.

I always thought Beverley D'Angelo was Hot, hot, hot in the National Lampoon series...Saw her in a rerun of one of those U.S. cop shows playing a lawyer or a judge (or something).........My goodness, age is not her friend....Hardly recognized her!...No more fantasies about Bev:(
