I just rewatched Ruthless People after 10-15 years and couldn't stop laughing. Bette Midler is an underrated actress/comedian and Danny DeVito is always a riot. If you pay enough attention, you will see "Frankie Carbone" of the movie Goodfellas in a scene.
Highly recommend.
Down and Out in Beverly Hills is also great. (Just rewatched as well)
What About Bob?
There are others I'm going through from the 80's early 90s.

Damn this is so true!
One of the funniest scenes of ANY movie that I ALWAYS remember is when Michael Keaten gets off the subway in New York and runs up to the window and shouts at Henry Winkler through the window:
Two movies before this era that were pretty damn good were Kentucky Fried Movie and Everything You Wanted to Know About Sex but Were Afraid to Ask.
The scene where Woody Allen is trying to break open the chastity belt of Lynn Redgrave is hysterical.
Also the scene were Burt Reynolds and Tony Randall are in the brain of a man as he is trying to get an erection for sex might be one of the greatest ever! [Reply]
