17. Yes Spinal Tap is amazing and hilarious because they ad-libbed so much of the story

I'm guessing those guys smoked a lot of weed while they made that movie. But it's only a guess, what do I know?
It is hilarious in any case. Probably Spinal Tap 2 was made the same way. I'm shocked that they all look so much older now. But I look older too, so there's that.

Rob Reiner shows his comic genius in just about all of these movies. What I want to do is download the original episodes of "All In the Family" that I haven't seen for probably 45 or 50 years, and enjoy them all again. He's in every one of them, and they were all GREAT! It will be hard to watch them without crying, but that's what happens when we lose someone we love.

RIP Rob Reiner
