Submitted by Tom S

Better known as the “Man of 10,000 Sound Effects,” Michael Winslow was the best part of the Police Academy films (all four hundred of them). His talents had nothing to do with post-production sound editing, but real-life vocal wizardry. Behold!

Submitted by Laurens B

Jim Varney was an epic part of any childhood that spanned the ’80s or ’90s. Anyone that grew up in that era has probably seen Ernest Goes to Camp about a billion times.

Epic Win: Tex Avery

Submitted by Sara H

Without Tex Avery we’d have none of our favorite cartoon characters like Bugs Bunny, Droopy, Daffy Duck, Porky Pig and a host of others.

The crazy antics, cartoon physics, and quantum anomalies that are abound in cartoons may have never been realized if it weren’t for Tex Avery.

Epic Win: Deep Thoughts by Jack Handey

Submitted by Jason L

“f you’re in a war, instead of throwing a hand grenade at the enemy, throw one of those small pumpkins. Maybe it’ll make everyone think how stupid war is, and while they are thinking, you can throw a real grenade at them.”

We can’t read a Deep Thoughts quote without hearing Phil Hartman’s introduction in our heads. Deep Thoughts is an Epic Win for its absolute absurdity and hilarity.
