Do I detect a Gene Wilder fan?
And who would have thought that John Candy would feature for so many of us!? I loved him in Uncle Buck too but was too scared to say before! haha - thought it wasn't high-brow enough for you lot.

Maybe not old enough to be a classic but if you haven't seen "Skin Deep"
You should definitely put it on your must see list. Watch it with a group of friends is my recommendation.

The other good line was, Wilder telling Feldman " I can fix that hump for you" in which Feldman replies, "what hump".!!

The other was, when Feldman goes to get a brain from the Mortuary, and he drops the brain of a genies, so he just takes another that was labeled "Abnormal". Well, after the brain was put in the body, and was acting weird, Wilder asked Feldman, "Just exactly who's brain did you bring me", in which Feldman replies," it was some one called Abby Normal"
