    <p>Delirious is absolutely hilarious. But his career would be dead if he said a lot of those things now.</p>

    <blockquote class="ipsBlockquote" data-author="Rocky Rock Rockbottom" data-cid="610755" data-time="1472531377">
    <div>
    <p>alltime:</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>1 Borat</p>
    <p>2 Raw</p>
    <p>3 Delirious</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>*bonus points for watching Borat on a plane and the little kid across the aisle from me, and one row in front, who was also watching it, and who unwittingly decided to pause it for his 30-minute lunchtime right at Borat's epic bedroom wrestling scene with hairy ox-man manager. So hungry right now</p>
    </div>
    </blockquote>
    <p> </p>
    <p>You won't find one iota of an argument about 2 and 3 ( I didn't bother with them as they're not "movies" as such ? ) but I personally found Borat ( like all SBC's work ) has just as many cringey WTF moments as genuine comedy.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Eddie is ( or rather was ) a deadset stand up comedy genius, I don't know a single bloke my age who doesn't love those two concerts  but I for one would be interested how he'd go today over 30 years since his heyday.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Richard Pryors stand up is probably just as good to be honest, Youtube has some awesome stuff on it ( and Eddie freely admits to stealing so much of his material ), as good as he is though I agree, I can't see him doing Sheriff Bart as well as Cleavon Little did.</p>

    <p>I'll give you Rambo, or to be accurate, First Blood, but all those that followed were very poor IMO.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Rocky and Rocky II are very good and the last one, Creed, which was quite surprisingly good. TBO, I didn't mind the second to last either, Rocky Balboa but III, IV and V are really shit.</p>

    <p>Didn't really enjoy either of Stallones "R" movies. Sly isn't without his charms but Arnie shits all over him from a great height overall in my opinion.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Demolition Man is fucken great but a lot of that is cos of Wesley Snipes.</p>

    <p>Tango and Cash! That alone put Sly up there!</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>I liked him in Assassins too</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>To be fair, I like him!</p>

    <p>The last Rambo was one of the best action films of its era. Probably had the best fatalities for a long time.</p>

    <p>Best Zombie movie ?</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Mine would be 28 days and weeks later ( still holding out for another sequel ) and Dawn of the Dead ( 2004 version ). Always much scarier when the Zombies can run. I am Legend and World War Z real disappointments.</p>

    <p>Zombieland had great ingredients, I mean how fucken hilarious were Woody Harelson and Bill Murray in Kingpin ? ( far and away THE best Amish/ten pin bowling movie of all time ) but I was disappointed for whatever reason overall.</p>

    <p>Probably because you want every movie to be a roid-raging homosaurus festival like this</p>

    <p>I agree... until I rewatched it recently. Now <em>that </em>is a movie that doesn't hold up :(</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Luckily it still has one of the best high five scenes:</p>
