    Actually, American Pie re-started that genre in 1999.

    "There's Something About Mary" (1998)

    That's what I was thinking.

    Good call, but I don't think "Mary" featured any nudity (non-prosthetic nudity, that is).

    I probably wouldn't see it anyway, but the CGI in the trailers for "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" looks particularly shoddy ...

    What about that doesn't make it a hit R-rated comedy?

    You have to remember that mainstream comedies featuring nudity were virtually non-existent from about 1987-1999, for whatever reason. American Pie made it safe again, for which I am eternally grateful.

    Manhattan.
    Saw it years ago when it came out, and I DETEST Woody Allen.
    But there's something about seeing this ... black and white, Gershwin score and New York 35-sh years ago that appeals to me.
    Mariel Hemingway at 18 is also a selling point.

    First scene... they're in a club called Elaine's listening to soft jazz... and it's basically the theme from Everybody Loves Raymond...

    Yeah, caught about half of this on HBO. What a turd. I did like Carey Mulligan, though. That Louis Stevens guy really needs a smack in the puss, if you ask me.

    There's really no intrigue or mystery to this story. It's all given away in the trailers.
