Comedy movies

[RayB]

Since we're delving into TV land... I'm really digging "Community".

I can't get into it, but love Parks and Recreation.

Dr Strangelove was a good dark comedy that I didnt see in the list. It's not Ha-ha funny, but it gets me everytime, esp the scene where the british officer is ordering the american guard to shoot the lock off of the coca-cola machine "If you are wrong, you will have to answer to the cocacola corperation"

Dr Strangelove and The Producers are prolly my favorite "dark" comedies, even tho the only thing dark about the producers is how it makes fun of Nazis.

[Ginsu Victim]

Dr Strangelove is great. One of my favorite Kubrick films.

[hypernova]

Happy Gilmore and Billy Madison.

RayB, it was comedies that always make you laugh no matter how many times you watch it.

How about Spaceballs?

[polaris]

The finest film and comedy ever made, though i doubt many have seen it, if any of you.

TWIN TOWN 

NSFW lots of swearing

[Malenko]

Ace Ventura and the sequel Ace Ventura : When Nature calls

the only Jim Carey movies I can watch.


ALLLLLLLLRIGHTY THEN!

[shmokes]

I remember liking the first Ace Ventura but hating the second.  I was in junior high or high school when I saw the first, though, so I'm not really sure whether it was actually good.  But he has unquestionably been in far better movies.  Truman Show is amazing.  Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind is a ---smurfing--- masterpiece.  Man on the Moon was pretty good too.


Edit: Except the scene where he's conducting surveillance from a fake rhino and the fan breaks and he can't get out and then the rhino gives birth to him.  If that was in the 2nd movie, it at least had one good scene.

LOL, for me its the only ones I can't watch (and cable guy of course). D&D, LL, TMS: that's my picnic.

I saw Twin Town and really couldn't understand what was so funny, maybe it's a cultural thing

That scene is the second one, and I agree with you, the first was much better, but the second has its moments

Truman show: didnt like or hate it
The Majestic: terrible
The Mask: very meh
Dumb and Dumber: I liked,but not because of him
Batman Forever was just terrible (not his fault)
Me Myself and Irene: was great but not one of my all time fave comedies but its close, add this to the list of JC movies I can watch
Bruce almighty was just plain bad
Man on the Moon: best movie he ever did and I love, not on the list cause not a comedy (more like a biography)
Yes Man: I didn't like it, but I don't have kids to watch it with and I'm sure that's why
The Number 23: Lame
Fun with Dick and Jane: mediocre but again it was the script or lack there of.

Back to Ace Ventura, the whole movie is pretty funny from beginning to end. The open HDS package scene is hilarious, and even some of the more zany parts like the shark tank and lookin at all the dolphin player's rings keep you entertained. Cannibal Corpse cameo? hello?! yes please!

The ONLY scene in "Cable Guy" that made me laugh is the scene when he visits matthew broderick in jail and thats only because I saw midnight express (on VHS!)

What, no "Once Bitten" love?

Nevermind. I just rewatched it for the first time in a very long time. Bad movie with only a few decent scenes.

[HanoiBoi]

Unless I missed it, I don't recall anyone mentioning Something About Mary.  Franks and beans....

That movie really raised the bar on crossing the line.   

[Ginsu Victim]

I used to find it funny, but the last time I watched it, it wasn't that great anymore.

No love for the 80's comedy whoopee boys?

I wanted to thank you for only giving me the clap. These days it's refreshing to meet a girl with curable diseases.

+1 for Canonball Run

[danny_galaga]

I can't believe i didn't think of this



I first saw this in science class in highschool. Teacher didn't have a lesson. It was on 16mm film (we still had those in school, evn though video players had been around a while already).

If you haven't seen it before, it's only about 17 minutes long. Parts 1 and 2 on youtube are the whole thing (",)

The Hangover

Wedding Crashers

Role Models

I can't believe I forgot those in my list.

[Loafmeister]

Trying to mention movies that have not been mentioned yet.

Kingpin, Army of Darkness (did I miss it? I can't believe it hasn't been mentioned!!!), Evil Dead 2 (to some extent), ANYTHING with Peter Sellers (Pink Panther series were great!), Naked gun movies (might have been mentioned), Top Secret...

[HaRuMaN]

I can't believe no one mentioned:

History of the World Part I  -- "It's good to be the king!"

[NiN^_^NiN]

Gotta love Young Frankenstein

Most of Mel Brooks movies are fantastic in my book

[jamesjones626]

"you know you could build you muscle by picking strawberry's, bend and scoop, like the mexicans"

The Burbs! legendary Tom Hanks movie.

[LLUncoolJ]

Found myself in a "dude" moment yesterday. I was sitting in traffic when Lookin' Out My Back Door by Creedence came on, so of course I'm slapping the roof of my car.
