    Yes, the man behind Yoda is also a director.

    It's been years since I last saw Muppets Take Manhattan, Little Shop of Horrors and What About Bob?, but I remember them quite fondly. I'm not sure of which to vote for, though.

    Of the films of his that I haven't seen, I want to see The Dark Crystal the most. The clips I've seen of it make it look very interesting.

    I highly recommend The Dark Crystal. That's a wonderful film, especially the story, so that's what I voted for. But I also feel Oz did a good job at directing the film Dirty Rotten Scoundrels.

    Except for Little Shop of Horrors, I haven't seen any of Oz's movies before the mid 90s, so I did not vote. I love certain segments of Bowfinger and In & Out, but I actually do find The Score to be my favorite overall.

    Even though The Dark Crystal was a long time ago, it definitely gets my vote. I can't stand Bowfinger, but I will give credit to anyone who's smart enough to put eye-candy Heather Graham in one of their films.

    There's some great films in that list. In the end, I chose Dirty Rotten Scoundrels. While The Dark Crystal is a beautiful film, it can be slow-moving at times. DRS, on the otherhand, is one of my favourite comedies ever. Steve Martin and Michael Cain are perfect in their roles.

    The Muppets Take Manhattan, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, and What About Bob? are some of my favorite movies. They all three are really great films! It's hard to pick my fav of those 3.

    Wow, I'm glad so many of you like Muppets Take Manhattan. Great film.

    I voted for Dirty Rotten Scoundrel though. Even greater film.

    I like What About Bob? the most, but The Muppets Take Manhattan comes in a close second.

    What About Bob and HouseSitter are both good movies...with house sitter, it's not as much funny lines as it is uncomfortable/awkward situations.

    I like a lot of his films, but I voted for Dirty Rotten Scoundrels - very funny movie. :D

    However, Bowfinger is one of the most unfunniest movies I have ever seen, IMO. :)
