My Favorite Bill Murray Performances

He tried to get her fired from her own movie?

I like a lot, Brad Pitt one of them)

Completely agree with your #1 pick!

Fun list Gideon!

Thank you Funny Face, there really was no other choice for #1, I knew that when I began the list.

His performance in What About Bob? would be my #2 followed by Groundhog Day at #3 and Ghostbusters at #4. One that would have made my top ten which wasn't included here was his performance in The Man Who Knew Too Little, that movie is really stupid but Bill is great in it.

Never seen The Man Who Knew Too Little. You didn't say what your # 1 would have been, Camo.

I said Lost in Translation earlier in the thread, remember? You actually responded to it.

I like this list, although Lost in Translation is way too low and being under Space Jam is a little absurd. A couple films I would have on my list are St. Vincent, Man Who Knew Too Little, and Royal Tenenbaums more so than the other Anderson films on your list. The man has had a great career and I feel like his turn to drama in the past years was a great way to reinvigorate his career.

Yes, you did, I forgot.

I expected flack about Lost in Translation being too low, but like I said, I hated the movie, which affected my rating. I actually thought about watchingSt. Vincent before completing this list, but I had already put it off a few days to watch Zombieland, The Razor's Edge, and The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou.

He was pretty good in St Vincent. It wouldn't have made it high on my list but it probably deserved a mention.

I never realized how many Bill Murray movies I haven't seen. Of the movies that I've seen, Ghostbusters would definitely be #1, followed by Groundhog Day at #2.

Some great Bill Murray films here. I just seen Bill Murray in a really neat film, last night. Have you seen this one?
Hyde Park on Hudson (2012)

No, but someone else here mentioned it too, I'll have to check it out.

I'm doing a review latter tonight of it.

I'll make sure to read it.

Thanks for saying this Tongo, I loved the performance but I didn't think it was his best either, but I knew when I started this list, I was going to get mad complaints about Lost in Translation not being #1.

Don't think anybody actually complained. I know i didn't, all i said was that it would've been my #1.

Bill Murray has done so many great films and roles - but one that sticks in my mind is the first scene of Ghostbusters when he's testing some bimbo's psychic abilities - it's just hilarious.

Groundhog Day is a masterpiece and Murray rules!!!

I love that opening scene in Ghostbusters too...that blonde was played by Jennifer Runyon, who played Cindy Brady in A Very Brady Christmas.
