Gotta go Shrek and Trading Places myself...but also liked him in Mulan

[Earth 2 Chris]

I know its baudy and pretty stupid, but for for a leave-your-brain-at-the-door-flick, The Nutty Professor does the job.

Gotta go with The Golden Child and Coming to America for me. So many qoutable lines! My favorite scenes are when he talks to the Nepal soldiers in the airport and When he performs Sexual Chocolates!!!

[Surfsup]

Trading Places for sure, closely followed by Coming To America. Both very funny movies.
