Best DVD to Watch Hung-Over

With holiday times approaching and liquor flowing virtually every night at some party, I was wondering what everyone thinks is the best DVD to watch when hung-over.

I find the LOTR Extended Appendices to be pretty good to watch as your heads pouding. In addition, I enjoy listening to the commentaryon The Limey.

Thoughts?

I always find something by Terry Gilliam to be a good choice, or anything by Quentin Tarantino.

It has to be something you don't need to concentrate on too much, to allow for occasional dozing in and out.

For me, I'd go with any action/adventure type flick that I've seen a million times, something that is familiar enough not to require my full attention. The Die Hard series, Jurassic Park, T2, etc, would all fill that bill...

Something with loud explosions and constant yelling, obviously.

Yep. Or a dumb comedy like Airplane, Naked Gun, or Not Another Teen Movie.

Especially the "We've come for your liver" and Mr Creosote sketchs.
