the only 2 I can think of at the moment are NATIONAL LAMPOONS ANIMAL HOUSE and NATIONAL LAMPOONS CHRISTMAS VACATION

Animal house is a great one, plus:

The Blues Brothers
Caddyshack
Ghostbusters
At least one Austin Powers movie
So I Married An Axe Murderer
Anchorman
Taladega Nights
Stripes (that one had a few SCTV alumni to boot)
Seems Like Old Times - yes, Chevy Chase did good movies!

before John Belushi died; he and Dan Ackroyd (who were good friends off-camera) were going to make a sequel to ANIMAL HOUSE which would have had Bluto and some of the others at Haight-Ashberry. Unfortunetaly; his death put an end to that. I wish they had made it though. That would have been HILARIOUS!!!!

Anything with Farley, Spade, and Ferrell.
Don't hate.

I DID enjoy Tommy Boy, Wayne's World, The Wedding Singer, and Christmas Vacation, to name a few. All of them starred at least one SNL alum.

I forgot to add Elf (Will Ferrell)! I love Elf! It's become one of our family's must-see Christmas movies every year.
