21. Legally Blonde (2001)

Elle Woods is the perfect pink princess. She is the most popular girl in her sorority and is dating the best looking dude, until he says he’s leaving her because she isn’t ‘marriage material’. Elle goes out to prove that blonde doesn’t mean dumb. Bennnnd, and snap!

“Oh, I like your outfit too, except when I dress up as a frigid bitch, I try not to look so constipated.”

Movie Trivia: Other actresses considered for the role of Elle Woods include Charlize Theron, Gwyneth Paltrow, Alicia Silverstone, Katherine Heigl, Christina Applegate, Milla Jovovich and Jennifer Love Hewitt.

22. Police Academy (1984)

The latest recruits are a ratbag pack of no-hopers…

“You know, Mahoney, I’d like to spend the next ten weeks breaking you into little pieces. But I won’t.  Because you’re bad. You’re bad for morale Mahoney. Oh, you look like the sweet little boy from next door, but you don’t fool me, oh no. You’re the devil, and you’re rotten to the core, and you’re ruining my chance to train some people who might make pretty good cops!”

Movie Trivia: Police Academy was the most successful film of 1984 in Germany.

23. Harley Davidson & The Marlboro Man (1991)

These drug, money and violence movies seem to be a hit.

“It’s better to be dead and cool, than alive and uncool.”

Movie Trivia: In a number of interviews, actor Mickey Rourke states that he only signed on to do the film for financial reasons.

24. National Lampoon’s Vacation (1983)

A family goes on a vacation and has experienced all sorts of adventure. So much fun. Fact: Anthony Michael Hall tried peeping on Beverly D’Angelo which was his mother in the movie. Eeeep.

“I think you’re all fucked in the head. We’re ten hours from the fucking fun park and you want to bail out. Well I’ll tell you something. This is no longer a vacation, it’s a quest. It’s a quest for fun. You’re gonna have fun, and I’m gonna have fun… We’re all gonna have so much fucking fun we’re gonna need plastic surgery to remove our goddamn smiles! You’ll be whistling ‘Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah’ out of your assholes! I must be crazy! I’m on a pilgrimage to see a moose. Praise Marty Moose! Holy Shit!”

Movie Trivia: Both Chevy Chase and James Keach stated in interviews that during the ‘Dog tied to the bumper’ scene, both he and Chevy were legitimately tearing up and that Chevy consistently biting his lips and his shortness of breath was genuine; all because they were trying so hard to contain themselves from laughing.

25. Dumb and Dumber (1994)

dumb and dumber

Of course this is a must watch because Jim Carrey’s acting fee amounted to $7 million. Duh. Poor old Jeff Daniels got a measly $50 grand… Poor bastard… he steals the show.

“She gave me a bunch of crap about me not listening to her, or something. I don’t know, I wasn’t really paying attention.”

Movie Trivia: During filming, Jim Carrey stayed the night at the Stanley Hotel and requested to stay in Room 217 (the bad room from Stephen King’s, The Shining). About three hours after Carey had gone to bed, he came running out of the room screaming and to this day, vows never to return. He has never told anyone the reason.

26. Speed (1994)

Again, cars and Keanu Reeves.

“It’s okay. If you need to, you go right ahead and vomit.”

Movie Trivia: The bus jump scene was done twice, as the bus landed too smoothly the first time. The bridge was actually there, but erased digitally.

27. Ace Ventura: Pet Detective (1994)

Cannibal Corpse has a cameo on this movie, so I need to see them. Alrighty then!

“If I’m not back in five minutes, just wait longer.”

Movie Trivia: Jim Carrey had his own personal chef on the set of the film, who was also required to prepare meals for Carrey’s pet iguana.
