Awesome Movies

I couldn't fit all my favorite movies into the little space they give you, so here's a list. Not that anyone cares, but if you really like one of the categories in general, and haven't seen a movie I put in that category, I recommend that you see it.

Comedy

Office Space

Elf

Drop Dead Gorgeous - this is one of the funniest movies you've never seen

Houseguest - it's too bad that Sinbad hasn't made any more movies

Amelie

Daddy Day Care - very funny and Steve Zahn is hilarious

Grosse Pointe Blank
