Quote: Curt @ February 19, 2008, 5:57 PMBorat was funny but I would not put it on the funniest list. In fact I have to say I laughed perhaps twice but that could be because I heard all the jokes in the previews.
1) Just about anything from the Marx Brothers: A Day at the Races and Down were there funniest in my opinion with Duck Soup being my favorite)
2) Something By Mel Brooks would HAVE to go up on that list: Young Frankenstein, Blazing Saddles, History of the World, Spaceballs his movies alone could make up a whole list of the funniest movies ever made.
3) Monty Python: All of there movies are funnier then any on that list by the Telegraph, and in my opinion some of the funniest movies ever made.
4) Airplane! Zucker has done a lot of funny movies but this movie just does not loose its hilarity. I showed it to a bunch of friends just last year who had never seen it and they couldn't stop laughing.
5) Bud Abbott Lou Costello Meet Frankenstein: Abbott and Costello made a lot of funny movies but I think this was their funniest.
6) Early Adam Sandler: I will understand if people disagree with me since it is a specific taste of comedy but you have to admit that his style of comedy changed funny movies for a long time and I personally think Billy Madison, Happy Gilmore and the Waterboy are still funny.
7) Office Space: This is on of the funniest movies of our generation.
8) Something good from Will Farrell (because he also makes a lot of shit) should go on that list be it Old School, Anchorman or Talladega Nights.
9) A Kevin Smith movie: From Clerks to Strike Back there is something for everyone in there.
10) Groundhog Day: I love this movie.Here are a couple of major underrated movies but none the less I think are some of the funniest movies ever made.
-Galaxy Quest: Highly underrated in my opinion and laugh out loud funny.
-3 Amigos: I laugh just thinking about this movie. I still don't understand the hate for this film it was just so darn funny.
-Brain Candy (Kids in the Hall)
-The Great Outdoors: Silly at times but funny none the less.
-Christmas Vacation: The reason some of us 80's kids think Chevy Chase is a actually a funny person.
- Trey Parker and Mat Stone Combo: Baseketball, Orgazmo, South Park the Movie and World Police are all gold.
- Ghostbusters (I didn’t know if I would get blasted for calling it a movie so I put it here, but this movie is still one of my favourite movies of all time).
- Austin Powers films: They also changed the way people view comedy
- Fish Called Wanda: So smart I just love the writing in this movieI'm looking forward to seeing other people's lists.
I agree with everything you say, you are my new hero.
I would like to add any film by peter sellers (esp strangelove and pinkpanther movies) and caddyshack.
Oh and dumb and dumber, brilliant.
Some Like it Hot
Odd Couple
Blazing Saddles
Life of Brian
Duck Soup
The Bank Dick [W C Fields]
Bruce Almighty
M.A.S.H [much better than series]
Catch 22
The Producers
Not in any particular order. My kids wanted 'The Grinch' in but I beat them and locked them in the coal shed.

I thought that Maggie had closed down all the mines, so we didn't have any coal any more?

Catch 22
-The Producers
-I have never seen "Some Like it Hot" but I think I will since so many people like it (plus Jack Lemmon is almost always hilarious).
-I JUST saw M.A.S.H for the first time a few days ago and you are right it was a VERY funny movie.
-This is the first time I hear of The Bank Dick.
-I really like your list but I would have to disagree with Bruce Almighty I thought it was funny but not the best comedy. Perhaps if I was making a top 50 list. But that's just me.
I haven't read everyone's post here but it isa bit pretentious. Only 2 Brits there I think and no Naked Gun etc.
Utter bollox - you'd think it was the Grauniad.
bollox, bollox, bollox, bollox, bollox,what a fun word to say to bad I would sound weird saying it over here 
So I'll get as much use out of it here BOLLOX! Weeeeeeeee 
The normal spelling is bollocks. Unless you're Charley of course. 
[quote name="Badge" post="103843" date="February 19, 2008, 6:59 PM"]And Delicatessen.
Yep, Delicatessen is goddamn funny. Blazing Saddles good, National Lampoon's Animal House excellent and My Cousin Vinny funny as well.
Thanks Aaron!
BOLLOCKS!!!!! Weeeee!
p.s. Delicatessen, like the Jean-Pierre Jeunet movie? I liked that movie and all but I would not consider it a comedy.

Well not directly.
Here's some films that actualy make me laugh. That's 'LOL' films.
Top Secret - I'm in it and it's my favourite Zucher et co film.
Office Space - Mike Judge at his finest. opening sequence of the guy rapping is comedy gold. And Milton - best comic character ever.
Medieval Dead - Army of Darkness - a fine way to end a fine trilogy.
Zoolander - Blue Steel. Enough said.
South Park The Movie - saving the best until last.
