1. This is Spinal Tap
2. Waiting for Guffman
3. Best in Show
4. A Mighty Wind

I love them all, but Spinal Tap is by far the best. Very hard for me to rank 2-4, I like them all about the same.

Its very tough for me to, Lenny...but I guess I'll go with Best in Show because that was the first C. Guest movie I saw...I will agree that it is a tough choice, though.

Probably Waiting for Guffman, cause I've done a lot of theater shit and it just really made me laugh my ass off.

I don't think Mighty Wind got enough attention to even be considered overrated. It's not their best effort, that's for sure, but I did find parts of it amusing.

I'd have to give the nod to This Is Spinal Tap for #1.

Best part of A Mighty Wind. It's a shame the rest wasn't that good.

If we're talking about movies he's starred in or written, then This Is Spinal Tap wins easily, but of the films he's directed, I think Waiting for Guffman is the best.

i'd say a mighty wind is my favorite. spinal tap and best in show are awesome but they kinda got boring about the third or fourth time i saw them.
