My two favorite comedies (if not movies) of all time are The Big Lebowski and Blazing Saddles, if they match up, I dunno who I will vote for.
Darkness warshed over the Dude--darker'n a black steer's tookus on a moonless prairie night. There was no bottom.
It's a male myth about feminists that we hate sex. It can be a natural, zesty enterprise. But unfortunately there are some people--it is called satyriasis in men, nymphomania in women--who engage in it compulsively and without joy.
Dude: They kept saying they believe in nothing. Walter: Nihilists! Jesus. Say what you like about the tenets of National Socialism, Dude, at least it's an ethos.
Donny: Are these the Nazis, Walter? Walter: They're nihilists, Donny, nothing to be afraid of.
Maude: This compulsive fornicator is taking my father for the proverbial ride.
Dude: Walter, you can't do that. These guys're like me, they're pacificists. Smokey was a conscientious objector. Walter: You know Dude, I myself dabbled with pacifism at one point. Not in Nam, of course--
Walter: Smokey my friend, you're entering a world of pain.
Waitress: Sir, if you don't calm down I'm going to have to ask you to leave. Walter: Lady, I got buddies who died face-down in the muck so you and I could enjoy this nice family restaurant!
Cop: And was there anything of value in the car? Dude: Huh? Oh. Yeah. Tape deck. Couple of Creedence tapes. And there was a, uh... my briefcase. Cop: In the briefcase? Dude: Papers. Just papers. You know, my papers. Business papers. Cop: And what do you do, sir? Dude: I'm unemployed.
Man, I love this movie, why this isn't considered the greatest movie ever baffles me.
You have no frame of reference, Donny. You're like a child who walks into the middle of a movie...

Lebowski as the greatest movie ever? Not even close. Hell, it's not even in the ballpark. I could probably list 200 or so better.
Lebowski as the greatest comedy ever? Again, not close. But it would likely crack the top 50.
I much prefer Dr. Strangelove or: How I learned to stop worrying and love the bomb.
Gentlemen, you can't fight in here! This is the War Room!
Yes, I was, uh... I was thinking about ordering the tape, the videotape... about the college girls and the... the wild... the wildness. They're going wild or something? Somebody told me... about going wild.

I turned Dr. Strangelove or: How I learned to stop worrying and love the bomb, off. It bored the heck out of me.
Although the War Room line is a good one...
Lebowski is frickin hilarious. There aren't many movies I'd wanna watch over that one. In fact I'd say its my favorite. Although I like comedies better then drama etc.. because I find comedies more realistic in some senses then other movies.

Alright, alright, we can discuss Dr. Strangelove on wednesday when it's battle comes up. Now let this thread die already.
