Funniest movie of all time

[Dagmar]

"Other" is there as I am sure I've missed something!

I think I have never laughed more at a movie than Dumb and Dumber. Or South Park. Hmmmm.

[BlaK-Argentina]

Definitely Dumb and Dumber and even though I don't think 40 year old virgin is that great a movie, the acting is superb and makes it really funny.

I find it hard to believe a comedy movie film list gets that long without "Supertroopers"

I have to agree. I didn't expect to laugh so hard at Dumb and Dumber but my wife and I and the couple we were with were just nearly crying. There must be more clever comedies but that one made my stomach hurt from laughing so hard.

Got a little nippy coming over the pass.

[RhymesayersDU]

I voted Clerks. Love Kevin Smith's movies, Clerks is one of my all-time favorites.

[Shoemaker]

No "Some Like It Hot" on the list?

For shame, Dagmar.

[bowtown]

Best comedy, best movie.

[GoBroncos84]

The Big Lebowski is just brilliant. Great writing, both funny and intelligent, that is brought to life by outstanding performances. It wins on all levels, in my opinion.


Holy grail, Office Space, Dumb & Dumber, and Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas all garner consideration. I Heart Huckabees is my all time favorite movie, and is a comedy, but it isn't my favorite due to the humor alone. I laugh more at other movies. It's my favorite for how smart and philosophical it is

[Boobs McGee]

Spaceballs, The Great outdoors, and dumb and dumber.

In that order

[bowtown]

The Cable Guy is also an extremely underrated comedy. Carrey's best performance IMHO.

I thought "Pet Detective" was his best comedy by far.

[loborugger]

Unlike so much comedy now, you can watch this with your kids - or your parents.

Wow Dags, have to admit, that is an outstanding list. Of course, I had to go with my location movie Spinal Tap. Because it goes to 11.

[Williams]

Office Space, Meet the Parents, The Hangover, Austin Powers, Harold & Khumar, and Shawn of the Dead are just a few of my favorites. Office Space is #1 though, imo... by a large margin. Truly a comedy masterpiece.

[Que]

The Hangover

The greatest early film comedy ever made, period.

[Tombstone RJ]

I hate to admit it but I'm kind of fond of Ice Age: Down of the Dinosaurs Queen Latifa, me likey.

[Los Broncos]

History of the world should of been on the list.

About 2 weeks ago I bought a Jay and Silent Bob strike back blu-ray signed by Kevin Smith...still have it in the bubble wrap up on the mantle with the proof of authenticity and its never coming out of the packaging.
