Help me with a movie suggestion for a 75 minute bus trip

Next Sunday 45 guys are getting together to go see a football game. The ride is about 75 minutes long, and I need a movie (preferably a comedy) that's short and sweet. It can definitely go over 75 minutes, but not more than 100 minutes. Thanks.

Excellent suggestions. Thanks.
I think I'll bring all of them, and take a quick vote.
Thanks again.

The perfect modern film noir, Following by Christopher Nolan. Before he ever became the mastermind behind Batman and Memento, see his first truly great film. It runs 70 minutes.

When I was a kid, it was fairly well-to-do people who had TVs in the cars, I thought it was space-age. Nowadays it's easy, or you just use the tablet. Amazing times. I'll echo the Chaplin/Keaton comment, though if they're looking for something more modern, that might not be for them. If you're in the mood for SE totally escapist junk, some of Besson's Europacorp is stuff just the right length.

I always enjoy Star Wars, Episode One.

Go with that.

Kung Pow: Enter the Fist - it runs 80 min and is a great crowd flick (especially when alcohol is involved)

Amazingly so... any other director would have made it 2 hours. Damn near bold that Cuaron let it be that long.

The Groove Tube- 75 minutes, and I've seen it likely more than 75 times!
