I've only seen Spinal Tap and Best In Show. Really should get around to watching the other two.

(I hope they're still good - i haven't seen them since the days of VHS, so maybe they haven't aged well... i don't see why they wouldn't have though.)
there was also a sequel to Spinal Tap, but i've never seen it. that said, i know they filmed about 24 hours of footage for the first film, so it's possible the "Sequel" was really made from these offcuts.
(I'm also not really a commentary person for DVDs, but the Spinal Tap one was pretty awesome - it's done in character, so just adds another layer of funny to the film.)

Also sad is the lack of mentions for Raising Arizona, The Big Lebowski, O Brother Where Art Thou?, and Burn After Reading.
But while I'm at it, if you ever want to see where the Mr Bean template was ripped off from, check out The Party. It is basically a mix-up of Buster Keaton and The Marx Bros. with Peter Sellers doing a blackface and sequences that could have been filmed with Rowan Atkinson instead.
Although, while we're on the subject of Buster Keaton, The General is an utterly fantastic movie. And as for The Marx Bros., Duck Soup has a rather famous finishing sequence. You really can't go wrong with any of the Marx Bros. movies though.
