I had another pick all ready to go, but I scrapped it entirely and am gonna go off the board and pick one of my personal favourites.

Team Pineapple is proud to select in the category of comedy, Tommyboy.

Released in 1995, this film stars the late Chris Farley and David Spade. Farley is Tommyboy, a slacker who after seven years of university has finally graduated. He returns home to his fathers autoparts factory and tries to settle into a job there. When his father passes away, Farley and Spade must hit the road to sell autoparts in an attempt to keep the factory from being shut down and/or sold, leaving many without jobs.

It doesn't seem to have a very high rating from the critics, but I love it. It's one film that makes me laugh everytime I see it. I love David Spade and his snotty attitude, love Chris Farley and his physical comedy. Great combination in this film. Admittedly, it's a pretty stupid movie, but I think it's goshdarn hilarious. To steal from the comedy network, it's time well wasted.

So, trivia...

-The auto shop garages in one of the Zalinsky TV ads are actually Canadian Tire Corporation auto service centre garages
-Chris Farley's brother can be seen in Big Toms wedding scene, sitting next to Farley, when Tom asks Tommy to join him in the song on stage.
-Farley's character graduates from Marquette University, which is Farley's real alma-mater.

And some Youtube clips:

The Trailer:

It features my favourite line, the part about his clip-on tie
"Haha, it's a clip on"
"Haha, are ya sure?"
Love it.

A short highlight video:
Some language


A much longer highlight video:
(10mins)
Some language, so maybe NSFW


"Housekeeping"
Perhaps a lil NSFW


Love it all!!

And I believe that Liamenator is up now...
