Funniest movie ever.

[Sannum]

"Airplane"

"I haven't felt this sick since I saw that Ronald Reagan film"

[Midlodemocrat]

1. You know what else is pretty funny

...seriously, Johnny English. Laugh out loud. Who knew?

[Sannum]

10. Really?

I was a fan of the "Mr. Bean" show, but since the "Mr. Bean" movie was the first and only movie I have ever walked out on, I decided to skip this one because it was an Atkinson film...I did love him in Blackadder though..

[Midlodemocrat]

40. I have to tell you

...laugh out loud funny.

[DrZeeLit]

2. Young Frankenstein (too many lines to even list) n/t

[Parche]

3. funny

What planet are you from....with Gary Shandling

[graywarrior]

4. I watched Bad Santa the day after the election

It made me laugh

[henslee]

23. Me too. And the part that tore my heart was when the kid goes.... "I

know you're not Santa, I just thought you'd buy me a present because you were my friend." What a moment. Lots of folks didnt like that film. I did. It was not perfect but plenty of laffs. I'm not a Bernie Mac fan. He always seems over the top -- like he's acting.

[flyingfysh]

5. Tall Blonde Man with One Black Shoe

In French, but incredibly funny. There is also a sequel which is just as funny.

[disgruntled_goat]

6. Shaolin Soccer

just slays me.
(subtitles version only)

[NewJeffCT]

52. I have to see that one

Unfortunately, I couldn't it when I was in China recently!

[redsoxliberal]

7. airplane may very well be the greatest movie of all time

[LSparkle]

8. SouthPark

Yes, I am in actuality a 14-year-old boy. It's one movie that is still guaranteed to make me laugh out loud.

[Sannum]

11. that one is brilliant

I was listening to the soundtrack while waiting for the bus a few weeks ago and I was just laughing my ass off. Uncle Fucker just might be one of the best songs ever written:D

[fizzgig]

16. i would have to agree

it freaks people out that i can sing that song...

[realisticphish]

33. you are apparently not in college

:) just sing the first line near any college guys, and i assure you they will sing the rest of the song with you

[musette_sf]

9. A few come to mind

This Is Spinal Tap
Waiting for Guffman
Best in Show

and I wasn't as thrilled by A Mighty Wind as I hoped I would be... but Fred Willard totally made it worthwhile! (I loved the punchline to the mayor joke... "Yer on her!")

[Don Claybrook]

41. Waiting for Guffman was wonderful

You people are just bastard people. That's what you are.

I also loved Spinal Tap, especially the reminiscing about the dead drummer (choked on someone else's vomit, police said it was better left uninvestigated) and the 18" Stonehenge and the breaking-free from the embryo scene.

[Jessica]

62. Great movie - "I hate you - and your stupid ass face."

I crack up everytime.

[DelawareValleyDem]

48. Willard deserved the Best Supporting Actor

Oscar for that role.

"Hey, wha happened?"

[grannylib]

12. Python's "Life of Brian" and "Holy Grail" and I also love some of the old

Hepburn/Tracy classics. Even the somewhat dramatic ones had some GREAT humor.
"Desk Set" was hilarious, and "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner" had some fo my favorites.

Hepburn/O'Toole in "Lion in Winter" had some great lines as well. Not a funny movie at all, but some real biting humor in the dialog.

Yeah OK, I'm weird.

And "South Park: Bigger Longer Uncut" had me in stitches! So no, not a movie snob here!

[Zero Gravitas]

15. Ni!

[NightTrain]

13. I highly recommend "The Tall Guy" with Jeff Goldblum & Emma Thompson.

Hilarious slapstick, plus a vicious parody of Andrew Lloyd Webber musicals. Just rent it; you won't be disappointed!

[Commie Pinko Dirtbag]

14. The Naked Gun (nt)

[alittlelark]

17. The first time I saw it my stomache hurt for DAYS

from laughing...... OMG, that is possibly the funniest movie ever.

[yellowdogintexas]

18. Blazing Saddles

or Young Frankenstein
or The Producers

oh, yeah. Undercover Blues...it will make you hurt it is so funny

animal House

[gmoney]

19. Raising Arizona and The Jerk

Or maybe the mythologies have just grown in my mind, but to me, EVERY line in Raising Arizona is good for a laugh.

"Sir, you might want to wash your hands at this point..."

The Jerk, too... just pure stupid brilliance from start to finish.

"Things are going to start happening for me now!"
(phone book flips open)
"Johnson, Navin R. -- typical random bastard."

[Tweed]

39. A person of my taste

Nice pickin's

[elperromagico]

20. CADDYSHACK!!!

"I almost got head from Amelia Earhart!!!"

[Adenoid_Hynkel]

21. the jerk

"He hates these cans!!"

[Kat45]

22. "Blazing Saddles"

It still cracks me up after all these years.

[Robeson]

28. It was/is a classic

[derbstyron]

24. Harold and Maude

If you have a twisted sense of humor.
I do. :)

[faithnotgreed]

[WarNoMore]

25. "birdcage"

I could watch that movie a hundred times and always laugh.

[Gardeaux08]

30. "If it weren't

for the Pirin tablets, I couldn't go on."

[Phillycat]

51. LOL

God, I love that movie. Laugh out loud funny all the way through.

Agadore Spartacus!

[Phillycat]

57. Another:

Armand: Al, you old son of a bitch! How ya doin'? How do you feel about that call today? I mean the Dolphins! Fourth-and-three play on their 30 yard line with only 34 seconds to go!

Albert: How do you think I feel? Betrayed, bewildered... wrong response?

[OldLeftieLawyer]

26. Nuns On The Run

[bliss_eternal]

27. Showgirls

So bad it was funny...

[Skittles]

29. Spinal Tap

I just love that movie. :thumbsup:

[bif]

45. Funniest. Movie. Ever.

I've seen it a dozen times and it still cracks me up.

[Skittles]

60. two words for you bif

"shit sandwich" BWAAAAAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[Gardeaux08]

31. The Money Pit

Don't ask why...I can't tell you. It just cracks me up.

[corporatemedia]

32. DR STRANGELOVE ... we must protect our precious bodily fluids

[realisticphish]

34. MEIN FUHRER!

...excuse me, Mr. President


:hippie: The Incorrigible Democrat

[corporatemedia]

37. another peter sellers movie - BEING THERE with....

Chance the Gardener aka Chauncey Gardner

all other peter sellers movies (including pink panthers) sucked

[Love Bug]

64. BLASPHEMER!

Peter Seller's other movies did not suck! Did you see "Lolita"? He stole that movie from James Mason! The Pink Panther movies are FUNNY (at least most of them are). Dr. Strangelove did not suck!

Repent, blasphemer!!!!

[corporatemedia]

65. I can pent, but at my age I have to wait a while before I repent....

i'll give you lolita as being a great performance in a good movie but hardly funniest movie ever...

as far as the Dr. ... see my post (two back in the thread)

"DR STRANGELOVE...we must protect our precious bodily fluids"

but i draw the line at the pink panther movies...mainly because i'm not a big fan of slapstick...can't stand the three stooges.

different jokes for different folks

[Malebolgia]

35. "South Park" and "Happy Gilmore".

They always make me laugh.

[tigerbeat]

36. three way tie....

Airplane
Young Frankenstein
Monty Python and the Holy Grail

[CO Liberal]

43. "It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World"

My all-time favorite. The "Airplane!" movies come in second.

[Richardo]

49. You are correct, sir. IAMMMMW rules. 2nd Place: A Funny Thing Happened...

...on the Way to the Forum. :D

'Airplane!' is not even in my top 10.

[11 Bravo]

68. An absolute classic!

From the moment that Jimmy Durante "kicks the bucket", right up until Ethel Merman busts her ass on a banana peel, I never stopped laughing.

[barb162]

44. "where's Poppa"

[SlavesandBulldozers]

46. looks like i picked the wrong day

to quit sniffing glue.

I have to agree, Airplane.
For some reason The Big Lebowski also comes to mind, though i think its more sublime.

[VOX]

47. W.C. Field's "It's A Gift," Laurel & Hardy's "Sons of the Desert,"

Billy Wilder's "Some Like It Hot," the Marx Brothers' "A Day at the Races," "Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein" and "The Thin Man" series.

All in a classical mode. :thumbsup:

[Richardo]

53. We are sympatico, KrazyKat.

I'd add "The General" and other Buster Keaton movies as well.

[Phillycat]

50. Office Space.

[arwalden]

54. Life Of Brian, The Women, Arsenic & Old Lace, Young Frankenstein

[Merrick]

55. Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas

"Know your dope fiend! Your life may depend on it! You will not be able to see his eyes because of Tea-Shades, but his knuckles will be white from inner tension... and his pants will be crusted with semen from constantly jacking off when he can't find a rape victim."

"How much they pay you to screw that bear?"

[skygazer]

59. Good pick

That movie kills me.

[rockymountaindem]

56. Death to Smoochie

Monty Python and the Holy Grail
Blazing Saddles

[Kid_A]

58. Spinal Tap: "I think the problem may have been that our Stonehenge

monument was in danger of being crush by a dwarf. That tended to undermine the hugeness of the object."

Ghostbusters: "Ray, whenever somebody asks you if you're a god, you say YES!"

Anchorman: "I'm in a glass case of emotion!"

Dr. Strangelove: "You can't fight in here, this is the war room!"

[NewJeffCT]

61. Monty Python & the Holy Grail

Too many funny movies out there for me to pick one, but I guess I’ll go with my old favorite: “Monty Python & the Holy Grail”

“Help Help! I’m being repressed! Come see the violence inherent in the system.”

“Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony. If I went around claiming I was an emperor because some moistened bink lobbed a scimitar at me, they’d put me away…”

“But I don’t like her…” – “how can you not like her, she’s rich, she’s beautiful, she’s got huge… tracts of land”

“How do you know she’s a witch?” – “she looks like one”
“she turned me into a newt” – “a newt?” – “I got better.”

And, who can forget Castle Anthrax with scores of young women between 16 and 19 ½?

[pcboss49]

63. Blazing Saddles

"Mongo likes candy...."

[maveric]

67. "Mongo straight!"

The funniest IMO.

[cruadin]

66. "The Big Lebowski"-- one of the funniest movies ever made.

Jeff Bridges as "Dude" is absolutely great. Also John Goodman and Steve Buscemi are outstanding.

[OhioChick]

69. Happy Gilmore and Office Space....

Both give me a good laugh!
