@derek caddyshack is simply not a very good movie
@alex I wouldn't know, I haven't seen it lmao
@derek this has narrowed down in a really fascinating way
@checkervest while I'm chuffed by the results, I never would have thought Airplane! would have this kind of run
@derek wow that's a close one
Heeeeeeeeeere's
@derek Shirley!
@derek I'm picking the underdog here which feels both stupid and honest
@Thomas Here's my shameful confession: I have never seen Caddyshack
@derek It's good! Rodney Dangerfield in full force
@derek gotta be honest i've never heard of melvin and howard
@BDA It's one of Jonathan Demme's pre-Stop Making Sense movies, so it kind of gets lost in the shuffle
@derek [about to pull out my alts and cheat voice] we're on a mission from Gahd
