No matter what kind of movies you like to watch, no one can resist a good comedy movie. A movie which makes you laugh until you can't breath. A movie which makes you laugh until you cry. A movie which you quote with your friends for the next few weeks.

I am also a humongous movie buff and would like to interest you in some comedy movies you may have not seen.

Caddyshack

Bill Murray: So I jump ship in Hong Kong and I make my way over to Tibet, and I get on as a looper at a course over in the Himalayas.
Caddy: A looper?
Bill Murray: A looper, you know, a caddy, a looper, a jock. So, I tell them I'm a pro jock, and who do you think they give me? The Dalai Lama, himself. Twelfth son of the Lama. The flowing robes, the grace, bald... striking. So, I'm on the first tee with him. I give him the driver. He hauls off and whacks one - big hitter, the Lama - long, into a ten-thousand foot crevasse, right at the base of this glacier. Do you know what the Lama says? Gunga galunga... gunga, gunga-lagunga

Caddyshack, released in 1980 and directed by Harold Ramis, is consistently ranked among the funniest movies of all time. This movie is unique in many ways.

First, there is no main character. Next, a large portion of this movie is based off of improv, and not off the script. There countless scenes in this movie, which are absolutely outrageous, because of the lack of organization.

Although, there is no specific main character in this movie, what most people remember about Caddyshack is Bill Murray.

Bill Murray plays a crazy groundskeeper, of the golf course presented in this movie. Murray is remembered for his wars with the gophers on the golf course, and his mumbling of words to nearly every other character in the movie. Also remembered is Chevy Chase; in this movie Chase plays a young, affluent, single man who comes to the course everyday. Chase is known as one of the best golfers at the course, yet everyday he does not keep score, and just plays for fun. Chase is perceived as a wise and all knowing character doing everything with grace, while being comical at the same time.

This movie will forever be my favorite movie, and I suggest that everyone have it in their household. There are a numerous amount of memories from this movie from all of the characters, and is one of the most quotable movies ever made.
