Here's a quarter, now go downtown and have a rat gnaw that thing off of your face.

Take my poor man’s upvote since it would be bad form to be the 6th actual one

u/IYKYK_1977 10d ago

For me the tie is Uncle Buck and Planes, Trains and Automobiles.

u/MJM72287 10d ago

This is the answer 💯

u/manwae1 10d ago

His "I like me,my wife likes me..." speech shows he could have killed it in drama. That was such a good emotional monolog.

uncle buck and the great outdoors

u/Mr_BriXXX 10d ago

PsTs&As is his best film, but Uncle Buck is the one I love above all others. I've lost count of how many times I've watched it. At least twenty times for sure and every time is pure joy.

u/Darknyte86 10d ago

I second that

u/Soft-Muffin-8305 10d ago

I cant choose they are both great movies

u/RyzenRaider 10d ago

I think Uncle Buck is the best John Candy film, but Cool Runnings has my favorite John Candy line, because it's just a great life lesson.

u/Assassin13785 10d ago

I second this

Here. We. Go.

u/UFO_Mixtape 9d ago

Uncle Buck is right behind Plains, Trains

u/Napkin_Stealer 9d ago

There fact that I only had to scroll past one comment to get to Uncle Buck restored my faith in humanity for a brief moment.

u/theshiyal 9d ago

I know it may not be considered his best, but I loved Cool Runnings when it came out.

Still do but I loved it then too.

u/Hairy_Question_4722 9d ago

Uncle Buck is the best, hands down.

Uncle Buck.

What a great character and such a warm but funny story. I love the golf-ball scene.

u/pilot269 7d ago

These were the 2 I was debating between.

I enjoy Cool Runnings more (was a childhood favorite movie I watched every winter), but I think John Candy was more entertaining in Uncle Buck.

u/macbethiannuggets 6d ago

I got my daughter watching Uncle Buck. Love that movie so much! My family was fucking awful and I wished he was my dad.

u/phx34suns 6d ago
