#63 (AFI):
Beverly Hills Cop
Year: 1984
Directed by: Martin Brest
Written by: Danilo Bach, Daniel Petrie Jr.
Starring: Eddie Murphy, Judge Reinhold, John Ashton
Most of the AFI's choices came from a time where women weren't allowed to vote or when German people were boiled down for fuel in concentration camps. This choice, Beverly Hills Cop, came from a time when all of Eddie Murphy's jokes ended with him saying, "Faggot ass faggot!" Maybe that's why the AFI's list is known to mothers as, "The Timeline of Tragedy."

#63 (IFLS):
Dumb and Dumber
Year: 1994
Directed by: Peter Farrelly
Written by: Peter and Bobby Farrelly
Starring: Jim Carrey, Jeff Daniels, Lauren Holly
When the Farrelly brothers made this movie, they set out to make the most poo-filled idiotic movie possible without using the crutch of Pauley Shore. And it was still more sophisticated than half of the bonkstick slapfests the AFI pee their pantaloons over.
Fun Fact: The main characters in Dumb and Dumber are named "Harold" and "Lloyd" after unfunny silent movie star "Harold Lloyd," the poo-filled idiotic Pauley Shore of the 1920's.
