Best Comedy Movie Ever Made....

[YukonJack]

The utter nonsense of anything by Michael Moore's autobiographical jewels like "Sicko" and "'Stupid White Men" (hey, maybe that was a FUNNY book).

Wow, Jack. You managed to crap up a best comedy movie thread with your partisan bs. Congrats.

Wow , you are going to have to cut out those sour grapes from your diet Yucon.

Without any doubt, without any peers, past or present:

Jack Lemmon, Tony Curtis and Marilyn Monroe.

OMG!

Hands down....

The Grail!

The Search for the Holy Grail.....Monty Python.

Without a doubt, my top favorite of all time.

Still can't believe it was made before I was born lol

Monty Python and the Holy Grail (1975)

It's been a while since we exchanged ideas on this thread. One comedy that will always be among my faves is The Gold Rush (1925):

There are so many great scenes in this movie! Chaplin felt it was his masterpiece.

For me, it's a tossup between a few of the Pink Panther movies (with Sellers, not Martin), "The Gods Must Be Crazy", or "Weekend at Bernie's".
Those religious movies are a hoot, too. Especially the ones with Charlten Histin (or whatever his name is) in them.

Oh, and "The Party" with Peter Sellers, too. And there are a couple of Buster Keaton movies that crack me up.

I'd like to add Airplane and a couple other Leslie Nielsen movies to those.

Abbott & Costello Meet Frankenstein!

Absolutely hysterical comedy!

Hot Fuzz

Something new to add to the list:

Hot Fuzz - I know it's three years old, but I watched it for the first time last month. It is the funniest 'new' movie I have seen in years and easily surpasses 'Shaun of the Dead'. [includes 'Spoilers!']

YouTube - The Very Best of Hot Fuzz

If you've seen the movie and you ever wondered what was on the other side of Nick Frost's flipbook:

In the past few years nothing has made me laugh harder than Napoleon Dynamite.

 

[weaselwords]

Heres a two for one Duck Soup - Marx Brothers & Duck Soup (Another Fine Mess) - Laurel & Hardy. Late 20's early 30's comedy was great it had to be to take peoples minds off the economic situtation.

I like the all part of American pie

Paint your wagon with Lee Marvin

I know they are really old but I don't watch movies anymore except for

Grumpy Old Men that was good too.
