Oh, I love the first Addams Family movie! Raul Julia was great as Gomez.

Have to second the motion on Christmas Vacation and There's Something About Mary.

How 'bout Blazing Saddles?

 

[uwjester]

The Adventures of Ford Fairlane

These two and beerfest would make any collection complete. OK and Shaun of the Dead. And The Jerk...and this thermos.

Oh, that's right! I forgot Happy Gilmore- the funniest dumbest movie of them all. I love when Adam Sandler and Bob Barker duke it out.

Most of my favorites have already been listed except:

Moving (Richard Pryor)

 

[blacklab]

Richard Pryor got me thinking:

The Toy

Then I was thinking about 80's movies and remembered:

Back to School(The Rodney Dangerfield classic)

The Triple Lindy!

 

[FlyingHorse]

Can't believe it took us 31 posts to get to Animal House...the grandaddy of them all.

And we have Stripes...Caddyshack...but no Ghostbusters?

Riots in the streets, dogs and cats living together, mass hysteria!

 

[Chris_Dog]

I put Animal House and Blue Brothers in another category. Best Comedy rather then best stupid comedy... maybe it is just me

even Caddyshack

 

[Rhoobarb]

"Plan 9 From Outer Space"
"Santa Claus Conquers The Martians"
Okay, they weren't meant to be funny, but they are!

I have to add "The Blues Brothers" and two old-school films - "Pillow Talk" and "Will Success Spoil Rock Hunter?". If they are on, I have to stop and watch.

 

[the_bird]

There's definately a difference between "comedies" and "stupid comedies." Stupid comedies, I would never dare rent; the shame would be too painful. Stupid comedies, I don't like to admit how much I enjoy.

Some Kevin Smith movies, I would consider to be stupid comedies (Mallrats, Jay + Bob Strike Back). Some, like Chasing Amy, just a comedy. The first Clerks? Non-stupid comedy. I never saw Clerks II, but that looked like stupid comedy. Jersey Girl? Just stupid.

So, there's some movies on this list that, I think, do not belong.

 

[RICLARK]

THE BURBS'
Superbad
Waiting
Happy Gilmour
Billy Madison
The Waterboy
Dumb and Dumber
Nat Lampoon's Senior Trip,European Vacation,Christmas Vacation,Summer Vacation, Vegas Vacation, Van Wilder, Animal House

 

[c.n.budz]

Along the Trey Parker/Matt Stone line, how about Orgazmo? Ron Jeremy's non-porn theatrical debut.

And then there's Lake Placid. A "horror" movie that makes me laugh more than many comedies. My favorite line in that movie is from Betty White when she says, "If I had a d!ck, this is where I'd tell you to suck it!"
