Prince of Thieves for nostalgic reasons. I probably watched it 20 times as a child.

Prince of Thieves JUST won out over Men in Tights for me.
I couldn't help it...I'm a chick, and at the time I was absolutely in love with Christian Slater.

Men in Tights pales in comparison to Spaceballs. So, Prince of Thieves since it was a really good movie.

I always found it was the other way around.

Blazing Saddles and History of the World Part 1 are the best.

I don't really know about Spaceballs, I just didn't find it entertaining. Maybe it's because I'm not at all into the old Starwars.

In high school I used to have a tape that had Spaceballs, Army of Darkness, and The Princess Bride on it. We watched it so much we wore the thing out. Those are amongst my fav comedies ever

Awesome, I liked Army of Darkness back in the day =)
Too bad the Director's cut took out the best line.... Were you a fan of Evil Dead? It is fairly similar comedy.

I bought the "Bootleg Director's Cut" DVD, the one with the cover that looks like a paper bag. It was AWFUL.

I'm looking for the 2-disc Boomstick Edition. By far the best version around and I can't find it anywhere.
I was hoping they'd release the Book of the Dead edition like they did with the other two (they're awesome) but they never did....

Speaking of Alan Rickman, Whenever you meet a fan, they are an obsessed fan, especially the female ones, kind of like Sean Connery fans.
