That’s funny … I haven’t seen Tyson in a while. Maybe he’s such a good character now I’m not recognizing him.

“Three O’Clock High” is an original through and through – like the flip side to the great “My Bodyguard.”

Glad to see “Three O’Clock High” get a mention. I once tried microwaving a my blue jeans after watching it. Got in big trouble for that. Richard Tyson is one of the best working-man actors out there – he’s in damn near everything.

Rodney didn’t take full advantage of his movie star fame. He followed “Caddyshack” with “Easy Money” – funny, but hardly classic. “Back to School” was all his … he owned it. But “Ladybugs?” Feh. He never reclaimed his movie mojo after that.

oops – that should say, I DIDN”T like Dangerfield when I was a kid.

I like this list! However, I haven’t even heard of “Three O’Clock High.” Of course, I was 11 in 1987. I like Rattle & Hum so I’ll put it in the Netflix queue. Just recently saw “Back to School” for the first time and laughed my butt off. I liked Dangerfield when I was a kid, but he has grown on me.

And “DPS” is my all-time favorite movie. “Seize the day boys…. seize the day. Make your lives extraordinary.” Still sends shivers down my spine. Some of the most quotable and inspirational lines ever written. Love it.
