Re: All Time Best Comedy Movies

Lol, we all like the same type of comedies.

Kung Fu Hustle
Blazing Saddles
Lebowski
Caddyshack
Up in smoke (first 20 mins)
Holy Grail
Man Bites Dog (underground euro type movie, black comedy)
Dr Strangelove

maybe we should have done top 5 classic comedies and then top 5 recent (last 15 years) comedies.

If you havent seen Kung Fu Hustle, it is awesome.

Kung Fu Hustle is so awesome. Have to watch it with subtitles though. Dubbed doesn't do it justice.

Most of the movies I would picked have already been mentioned...so here's a few that haven't been mentioned

PCU
Revenge of the Nerds
Hot Fuzz
Half Baked
Napoleon Dynamite
iThree Amigos!
Trading Places

Dynamite did cross my mind when I was thinking of my favorite. Just so well done. It also touch a lot of different types of comedy...deadpan, absurd, physical comedy...multi memorable characters. I didn't expect that movie to be that good.

Wes Anderson probably deserves a movie on my list...I think The Royal Tanenbaums would make it. That was the type of movie where you see it once and think its ok...but you see it replay over on comedy central or hbo a couple times and it gets better.

Never ,ever like ND,the kids loved it and so do my grandkids it just never got to me.Now I feel the same way about Monty Python and the HG as you do the Royal Tenenbaums.I saw it a theater with friends and didn't get it,now I can sit alone and watch it and I am crying laughing out loud ,the "bring out your dead bit "is classic.I can do the same with most of the Marx Brothers movies,
