Everyone will probably hate on it, but I went with What About Bob

 

 

 

Actually, What About Bob was a really popular comedy when it was released.  Well reviewed.  Not my favorite though.

Definitely NOT one of his recent too cool hipster douchebag films.  Bill Murray is so cool.  So cool that he waited for Harold Ramis to die before allowing a new Ghostbusters movie.

 

Rushmore and The Life Aquatic were not his very best work, but they were great movies in their own right. 

 

I will not see the new Ghostbusters film.  It looks like ****, and no Ghostbusters movie should have been made without original characters in it.

Stripes followed by The Man Who Knew Too Little.  But I'll watch any of his movies.

 

 

While I enjoyed "The Man Who knew Too Little," I think it is the weakest from among the list.

Zombieland 

 

That was really funny, but it was only a cameo.  There is no way it beats out most of the other options.

Had to go with Caddyshack, but Scrooged is probably his most overlooked 

 

Scrooged was an extremely popular movie.  That was not overlooked.  I would say Quick Change was his most overlooked film.  Quick Change was a flop at the box office, but it was a very funny and clever movie.

True, but it never gets the same love as Chaddyshack, Stripes, etc. etc. etc.

Scrooged, Bad Santa, Die Hard, and Lethal Weapon are my favorite Christmas movies.

It seems to me most of his comedy performances were him doing his schtick... Meatballs, Stripes, Groundhog Day, Ghostbusters, Scrooged...

 

All the same, funny but not great acting and nothing novel.

 

That's why I picked Lost in Translation, although I can see something like his performance as Kingpin as more unique than his other comedy performances.
