Coming to America.
Boom.
Boom.
But seriously, these would be my top 5. I have a weird sense of humor compared to most, I've found
Some Like it Hot
Fargo
Hot Fuzz
Dr. Strangelove
Planes, Trains, and Automobiles
I forgot about that or I would have had that on my list, too.Yeah, me too.............one of my favorite comedies if not my fav is A Fish Called Wanda.........
Plausible vs ImplausibleI have to divide this up into 2 categories.
1) Real Movies that are funny.
- Office Space
- Planes, Trains, and Automobiles
- Animal House
2) What I call 'Stupid Movies'
- Step Brothers
- Tommy Boy
- Walk Hard, the Dewey Cox Story
- Dumb and Dumber
- Zoolander
For me it is between Dumb and Dumber and Blazing Saddles. Another I would add to the list is Slapshot but maybe that's just me?
Comedies, especially, are VERY open to taste, so that is why I want going to call out any in my original post.
But IMHO...
Dumb and Dumber and Ace Ventura were pure crap.
Superbad and PT&A, while funny, don't belong in this discussion.
Seeing as D&D and AV have received votes, my opinion differs from others...
off the top of my head, the top 10 are (and I stress this is not a complete or accurate list..)
Holy Grail
Caddyshack
Stripes
Animal House
Austin Powers
Blazing Sadles
Spaceballs
Naked Gun
Airplane
Hangover (???)
If I want to stretch, I could go with Its a Mad Mad Mad Mad World or some of WC Fields stuff. I am not familiar enough with fields to argue the point, though.
Funny that may Dad was also in Slapshot at the end where they had the parade. They actually took footage from a Bicentennial parade in Johnstown that my Dad was in playing drums.I was actually in slapshot.
Was a kid when they filmed it, and was in an audiece shot.
That's an oldie for sure.
