"Save Argos"

I haven't seen this since cinema and it still hasn't aged well. Also every time a character says 'Argos', I keep thinking of the English catalogue retailer by the same name. It was hilarious. At this point I stopped taking the movie seriously and made a Monty Python version of this in my head.
I never laughed so hard at my own imagination in awhile.
Here's some funny trivia: "Emma Thompson almost made an accidental uncredited cameo in this movie while visiting friend Liam Neeson on the set. Thompson, who'd been filming Nanny McPhee Returns (2010) in an adjacent studio, went to visit Neeson during a break, just as Neeson was about to shoot a scene with Ralph Fiennes and Danny Huston. Unable to exit the set fast enough as the cameras began to roll, Thompson, in her clumsy Nanny McPhee costume, had to hide behind Huston's throne during the take so she would not be picked up by the cameras."
Amazing.
