The only truly great, classic American Comedies from the 80s that are shown here on TV (or were circulated for rentals), are Ghostbusters, the Blues Brothers (one of my 5 favourite films ever) and that's basically it.

No:

- Caddyshack
- Stripes
- A Christmas Story
- Princess Bride (though, this should be pre-requisite viewing for anyone in any country... I REALLY need to see it)
- Tootsie
- The Vacation films

Etc. I'm missing a few more, but these are the ones off the top of my head. Even FMJ and Platoon aren't known to well up here and those AREN'T comedies.

I know all of these films, but without being replayed on television often throughout my childhood (and even now), my generation on the whole doesn't know these films (and I've never seen them... aside from FMJ and Platoon lol).

Yet, everyone my age here in Canada knows, "the Sweet Hereafter," and you guys will be all, "da fuq?"

Hmmm.. I wonder if I could get deported back to Canada since my grandfather was an illegal immigrant from Canada about 100 years ago . I even speak most of the language except for Canadian French which my grandfather did speak .
Nah..forget it.. I hate cold weather except pictures of snow..
