I personally find "Major League" to be a somewhat underrated comedy film of the 1980's.

I really liked "Seems Like Old Times", used to watch it on Encore all the time back in the mid 1990's, definitely a forgotten gem.

Seems like old times is great but check out Foul Play same actors. Really funny.

Foul Play is hilarious. Dudley Moore has a small role but some hysterical scenes

i've been meaning to give time bandits a re-watch. i saw it was a kid & remember being a little confused & underwhelmed by it, & i've never revisited it as an adult. it's streaming on criterion, so i might give it a go this afternoon.
