Hello, how are you? It's that time of year again where we discuss our favorite (least favorite?) Steve Martin films. Many of you find the dialog uncomfortable but I, for one, think its necessary. By the end of the day I would like to have a general agreement so we can put this past us for another year.

Three Amigos. The supporting cast really takes it over the top for me, compared to the others on this list.

I was down to FOTB and PTAA and went with PTAA.

I'm not a big SM fan... Voted for PTaA because of Candy.

Crap. I mixed this up with cheaper by the dozen. I want my vote back.

The Jerk and Planes, Trains and Automobiles

PTAA it is. John Candy is phenomenal.

AppleJack · « **Reply #15 on:** January 17, 2014, 11:27:47 AM »

concerned about the lack of respect Three Amigos is receiving.

DQ12 · « **Reply #16 on:** January 17, 2014, 11:33:23 AM »

No FotB pt II?

Mr. BAHHNKS! Mr. BAHHNKS!

Fun fact: Steve Martin was born in Waco, Texas.

Brock Landers · « **Reply #18 on:** January 17, 2014, 11:39:22 AM »

Tough call but ultimately I went with The Jerk.

Lefty · « **Reply #19 on:** January 17, 2014, 11:51:59 AM »

I don't like Steve Martin. I think he taints every scene he appears in. 3 Amigos, great movie but ruined by Martin.

Smug. Arrogant. Crass. Crumengeony. Elitist mentality. I bet he'd be a KU fan if he actually watched Sports.

Lefty · « **Reply #20 on:** January 17, 2014, 11:52:35 AM »

I'd be president of the Anti-Steve Martin fan club.

Lefty · « **Reply #21 on:** January 17, 2014, 11:54:41 AM »

He's probably pro-Environment to the media, but drives a gas guzzling Range Rover.

Lefty · « **Reply #22 on:** January 17, 2014, 11:55:24 AM »

The Jerk? Fantastic script, but ruined by Martin.

Lefty · « **Reply #23 on:** January 17, 2014, 11:56:57 AM »

If I saw Martin in Whole Foods I'd probably tell him he's not as good as he thinks he is.

I planned on posting this exact same thought.

PTAA for me.
