For me, it'll always be Fletch.

Still laugh when I think of his delivery for lines like, "C'mon guys, it's all ball bearings nowadays!"

X2. Choice made easy for me because Fletch showcased the beauty of Dana Wheeler-Nicholson.

I didn't realize Chevy got the top billing in Caddyshack. I love that movie, but I'm going to say Vacation (1983). Caddyshack isn't really a "Chevy Chase" movie.

I THINK OF CADDYSHACK AS A DANGERFIELD MOVIE.

I think of it as Ted Knight movie. Just kidding!

LOL...I ACTUALLY REALLY LIKE TED KNIGHT FROM TOO CLOSE FOR COMFORT...A GREW UP WATCHING THAT SHOW.

BILL MURRAY COULD MAKE A CASE FOR IT BEING HIS MOVIE REALISTICALLY.

Out of such an ensemble cast, I think Mr. Knight provided a generous portion of great laughs. To this day I can't not talk to my friend Billy without several repetitions of his name.
