Dr. Strangelove was my favorite. I was about 11 years old when it came out. My older brother was a huge Peter Sellers fan. Initially my mother would not let us go to the movie because of the movie’s title. We talked her into going to the movie with us and we gave her the option of taking us home if the movie was about sex. She laughed as hard as we laughed and stayed until the end when Slim Pickens rode the H-bomb with his cowboy hat on.

“There is no fighting in the War Room!”
Classic!
Well, it is all about sex - Colonel Jack D Ripper, General Buck Turgidson - but to an eleven year old? I think I saw it about that age and I didn't realize it was a comedy till the second or third viewing....
Funny thing is they make such bloody good cameras.....
Favorite scenes/lines - of course "Hey, what about Major Kong?"
Slim Pickens inventorying the contents of their survival kits.
Gen. Turgidson on the phone in his shorts.
Of course the "precious bodily fluids" scene...
Gen. Turgidson explaining how if a crew is good, I mean really good...
