Galaxy Quest (1999)
Adventure | Comedy | Sci-Fi
They're not astronauts… they only played them on TV. For four seasons, from 1979 to 1982, the crew of the N.S.E.A. Protector donned their uniforms and set out on thrilling and often dangerous missions in space–then their series was canceled. Nearly twenty years later, the five stars of the classic sci-fi series "Galaxy Quest" are still in costume, making appearances at science fiction conventions for legions of faithful fans…but some of those fans have a little too much faith. The Thermians, a race of aliens from Klatu Nebula, have mistaken intercepted television transmissions of the show for historical "documents." Arriving on earth, they wisk "Commander Peter Quincy Taggart" and his crew into space to help them defeat an all-too-real and very deadly adversary. With no script, no director and no clue about real space travel, the actors have to turn in the performances of their lives to become the heroes the Thermians believe them to be.

Religulous (2008)
Comedy | Documentary
Better known as the host of satirical political talk show Real Time with Bill Maher, Maher is a highly opinionated evangelical agnostic. Most would consider him an outright atheist, but he certainly claims to be open to the possibility of some sort of higher power contrary to what most people would take from his opinions. One thing is certain, which is that Maher hates organised religion and sees it as an enormous drain on society.

King of Comedy / Hei kek ji wong (1999)
Comedy | Drama | Romance
King of Comedy is a 1999 Hong Kong comedy film directed by Lee Lik-Chi and Stephen Chow. Unlike Stephen Chow's typical mo lei tau films, King of Comedy verges on comedy drama, describing the trials and tribulation that an aspiring actor experiences on his way to stardom. Some commentators[who?] say the story is based on Stephen Chow's early career, as he started off as a temporary actor, before becoming a successful and popular comedy actor over the course of a decade. The film does retain some of bizarre visual gags Chow is known for, such as Chow's character bleeding from the nose and eyes during a singing number.
