Ok..Funniest Movie that you ever saw? or Funniest Movies. (either ok) as many as you wish

[Stuart G]

(Yes, maybe we've done it before, but worth doing again....) Yes, we all need laugh!

1. The Producers.
2. Blazing Saddles
3. A couple of Marx Bros. movies (forgot their names, but remember laughing hard)

[Paladin]

1. Toss-up between "Young Frankenstein" and "Putney Swope." (nt)

[leftieNanner]

52. Putney Swope!!!!

I had to sneak in to see that because I was under 18! Loved that movie!!

[Paladin]

66. "Putney Swope" was written and directed by Robert Downey Sr.

Lots of talent in that family.

[DFW]

141. Ethereal Cereal!

Truth and Soul advertising agency.

That film was brilliant.

[Paladin]

142. "And do something about your breath!"

Brilliant film, indeed. I turned a whole bunch of my college friends on to it, back in the day.

[DFW]

144. As, indeed, my two roomies turned ME onto it. n/t

[SterlingPound]

53. i just watch Putney swope on youtube

and it had some funny stuff and ideals that didnt really pan

but it was about as funny as the movie of the magic Christian with Ringo Starr and peter sellers

[Paladin]

67. I love "Magic Christian" as well. (nt)

[3Hotdogs]

69. The shotgun, artillary scene.

[Paladin]

71. Yup. (nt)

[SterlingPound]

95. I liked the book much better

[eppur_se_muova]

2. It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World

Just when you think it's all over, it gets going again.

[lapfog_1]

27. yeah, top of my list

but all mel brooks entries are a close second

[SeattleVet]

30. Yep, one of the funniest ever.

For the most unintentionally funny, I'd have to go with either "Dark Star" or "The Room".

[Throckmorton]

132. Thank you for observing all safety precautions.

And don't forget to teach the bomb phenomenology.

[JonLP24]

3. The Man Who Knew Too Little

Bowfinger
Tucker and Dale vs Evil

[ThoughtCriminal]

97. Yes, - probably underrated.

[Coventina]

4. The first "Pink Panther" movie

"Ruthless People" is pretty funny as well.

[Submariner]

38. Clouseau & Kato

A very favorite scene from what I believe was the first pink panther. Thanks for the reminder.

[CaptYossarian]

133. The Return of the Pink Panther (1975)

When he's in the lady's hotel room with the vacuum. The bulb in the lamp kept popping out, he sucked the parrot through the bars of the cage, ended up in the sauna with the bellhop, and finished with the vacuum hose stuck to the masseuse's breast.

Only Blake Edwards could make something that manic and funny.

[smirkymonkey]

87. I love both of those movies!

Ruthless People was a definite sleeper. It was hilarious!

[Farmer-Rick]

5. Monty Python and the Holy Grail....enough said

Ok, had to edit to add Dracula: Dead and Loving It.

[OilemFirchen]

[Itchinjim]

12. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[at140]

[7wo7rees]

59. Hrundi V. Bakshi

Gets me chuckling already...

Howdy Pardener!

[StarryNite]

115. Yes!

I need to take it off the shelf and watch it again!

[subterranean]

7. This Is Spinal Tap

It's one of the few comedies that made me laugh out loud the first time I watched it.

The short-lived TV series Police Squad! (in color!) starring Leslie Nielsen was also exceptionally funny, although you had to pay close attention to catch all the jokes, which may be why it was short-lived.

The humor in that series was similar to Airplane!, another very funny film.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

8. Ditto. Spinal Tap still cracks me up every time.

[50 Shades Of Blue]

51. Ditto! Spinal Tap makes me laugh every time. Loved Police Squad and Airplane too.

[leftieNanner]

54. All of the film's from the Spinal Tap gang

Waiting for Guffman, Best in Show, A Mighty Wind!

[Hoyt]

57. As folk music fan, loved Mighty Wind. Need to watch it again.

[wryter2000]

9. Any of Leslie Nielsen's comedies

Airplane series. Naked Gun series.

[smirkymonkey]

88. Totally agree!

I love all those films. Leslie Nielsen is a comic genius!

[wryter2000]

91. The only weird part

Is when O J Simpson suddenly shows up in one of the Naked Gun movies

[NightWatcher]

10. The gods must be crazy

[Beartracks]

19. The only movie where I saw someone literally roll in the aisle laughing!

A friend of mine. Me and my brother and this friend went and saw it in the theater, and it was the funniest thing I think any of us had ever seen. Never laughed so hard or as much in a movie as I did for Gods Must Be Crazy. I've never watched it again, though, and now I'm afraid if I do I'll realize it wasn't that funny or something. Does it hold up?

==========

[NightWatcher]

21. Haven't seen it in a long time, but when the Jeep climbed the tree...

[Beartracks]

24. That made me laugh just reading it! LOL

[Ferrets are Cool]

37. IMO, no it does not. nt

[Zorro]

45. Yes IMHO both I and II hold up well

They are both hilarious.

[FuzzyRabbit]

93. Omg

[Coventina]

14. Adding "The Court Jester"

The Chalice with the Palace!!

[Dem2theMax]

17. The challice from the palace has the brew that is true!

It's sort of a secret code, isn't it? A code for all of us 'The Court Jester' lovers!

[Coventina]

18. Absolutely!

[KPN]

77. Oh darned ... you beat me to it, but I didn't notice before I posted so all's good.

3. Cocoanuts
4. Duck Soup.

[pansypoo53219]

105. even funnier than monty python's meaning of life was having it described by my grandpa's cousin a

big golden retriever type ex-cop. he was NOT a monty python type at all. but he enjoyed it.

[Karadeniz]

16. Young Frankenstein!

[Squinch]

20. What We Do In the Shadows.

[chowder66]

124. Ditto. Love the series as well. Hilarious! nt

[LakeArenal]

154. That is a great one.

[2naSalit]

22. Two that I can think of

because they made me laugh so hard I couldn't stop:

A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Forum... Zero Mostel was so funny.

Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas, (Johnny Depp/ Benicio del Toro) I didn't care much for the last hour of the movie but for the first forty minutes, at least, I was rolling around laughing hysterically.

And all the Marx Brothers movies.

[Stuart G]

23. I forgot one..."Some Like it Hot." 1959..

[Beringia]

25. A few scenes from Clifford with Martin Short

From when I was young

It's a Mad, Mad, Mad Mad World

The Marx Brothers

[at140]

31. The movie "mad mad world" had more cameo appearances

by other well known comedians than any movie I can think of.
I have the DVD and watch it often.

[lapfog_1]

28. Being There

In the spring their will be growth

[sagesnow]

72. Yes, Being There is a classic!

[Sancho]

29. Animal House...

...but some of my other favorites have already been named.

Cannonball Run

Summer Rental

[muntrv]

32. The Naked Gun.

[The empressof all]

33. It's dated now...

But Lost in America still makes me ROFL....Although certainly not my story but reminds me now of my youth

[Totally Tunsie]

62. Funny movie, for sure, with great casting.

"You lost the nest egg? You LOST the nest egg?"

Gary Marshall as the casino boss was gold!

[nocoincidences]

34. I love "The Ritz"

Rita Moreno as Googie Gomez is priceless.

[sagesnow]

35. I prefer Mel Brook's High Anxiety to Blazing Saddles

1. High Anxiety

2. "Bean" - the Mr. Bean's Movie when he is mistaken for an famous English Art Critic at a Los Angeles Museum.

3. Airplane- I love some good ol' slapstick.

[emmaverybo]

61. Fabulous clip!

[Ferrets are Cool]

36. Blazing Saddles and my dark horse is The Gods are Crazy

The former is STILL a classic, the latter does not hold up after all these years.

[yankeepants]

39. Kingpin

[consider_this]

149. ya!

so raunchy, but funny as hell.
Love the Blues Traveler jam at the end.

[airplaneman]

40. Top Secret, Blazing Saddle's, Young Frankenstein n/t.

[Ahpook]

41. Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas is hysterical

The "Attorney" aspect of the story is high-larious :

Plus, the scene in the elevator is particularly resonating. I had a friend in Florida that was short in stature, but certainly not in language.

I had ALL kinds of "Oh Fuck" moments hanging around him

Hunter Thompson is missed! We need more of him

[Binkie The Clown]

42. What's Up Doc --- Owl and the Pussycat

Both (coincidentally) Barbara Streisand films.

[lastlib]

43. Attack of The Killer Tomatoes!

Absolutely hysterically funny!

"TunnelVision: The 'No-Bullshit' Network" a close second!

"Blazing Saddles", "Spaceballs", "Young Frankenstein"

"Airplane", "Police Squad"

"Monty Python And the Holy Grail", "Life of Brian"

"The Gods Must Be Crazy!"

[Zorro]

44. Don't Be a Menace to South Central While Drinking Your Juice in the Hood

It is a hilarious Wayans Brothers movie.

And I am loathe to admit it, but The Mask and Dumb and Dumber are pretty funny, too.

[kairos12]

A Night at the Opera

Life of Brian

Borat

[IADEMO2004]

49. Destination Wedding

[Miguelito Loveless]

50. Jeebus! Are you me?

Those are exactly the first 3 that popped into my head when I read the question.

Then I was try to decide between “Victor, Victoria” and “S.O.B.”

[yellowdogintexas]

150. +1 for "Victor, Victoria" it may be my favorite movie of all

Blake Edwards' masterpiece.

[Miguelito Loveless]

160. "Jazz Hot"

is the best vocal work of Julie Andrews career.

And I would give a kidney for Robert Preston's voice.

[Pantagruel]

55. A Shot in the Dark (1964 film)

Can't believe no one mentioned this one!!

[yellowdogintexas]

151. that was my first Peter Sellers movie. I laughed so hard it hurt.

I have been a Sellers fan ever since.

[SterlingPound]

56. the party still cracks me up

[ChazInAz]

74. Worked in a theater where that was shown.

The movie lasted less than a week.
I loved it.

[Bradshaw3]

58. Planes, Trains and Automobiles

"Those aren't pillows!"

Those motel scenes had me laughing so hard I was crying and hiccuping.

[RestoreAmerica2020]

60. Great thread..all really funny movies! How to be a Latin lover on Netflex now-hilarious!

..the forever gorgeous Rachel Welch, stunning talented and beautiful Selma Hayek, Rob Lowe and famous Mexican always funny comedian and actor Eugenio Derbez [actor, comedian and filmmaker. His feature film Instructions Not Included, also funny;] How to be a Latin Lover is in English so don't fret..if you want a break from well you know who-- watch this movie it' ll make you laugh.

[Totally Tunsie]

63. "Dirty Rotten Scoundrels", but then, I'm a sucker for

anything Michael Caine!

[TlalocW]

64. The Three Amigos

I used to watch that once a week in college.

For those who have never seen it - three serial movie actors (Steve Martin, Chevy Chase, Martin Short) are fired from the studio they work for (this happens in early Hollywood in the 1910s). A village in Mexico thinks their movies are real life and send for them to come save them from a gang of banditos terrorizing them, but the actors think it's an acting job.

The line that kills me is when the Amigos are in the house of the family whose daughter sent for them. They're having dinner, and the family is talking about how proud they are to have them there, all the while Chevy Chase's character is having trouble with the tortillas and other food.

TlalocW

[Cicada]

65. Airplane, Animal House, Blazing Saddles, Bringing up Baby

[MaryMagdaline]

68. Annie Hall

[3Hotdogs]

70. Porky's. Too sophiscitated for this audience but,

who can forget Ms. Balbreaker trying to explain why a short arm inspection will divulge the culprit.

[Duppers]

98. That was the one I was trying to remember! 😂

Waayyy back in the early 80s, naive me couldn't believe the outrageously hilarious things said on screen. Loved it tho, even paid to see it twice.

[Stuart G]

73. "Fast and Furry-ous"....a seven minute movie..One of the greatest comedians : Wile E. Coyote

First time Wile E. Coyote tries to catch Mr. Road Runner...not the last

I think I saw this one in a movie theater when I was 8 or 9..part of a 25 cartoon show, for 25 cents.

Poor Wile...he never gets it right..even though he tries in many ways..and yes, this his first film. At least he doesn't give up in this film. He never does...Yes, he is funny, and no, language and talking is not important in Wile's films. Sound effects are the key. Also, that look on Wile's face as he falls off the cliff chasing Mr. Road Runner is fantastic. Poor Wile....well.........Wile's loss is our gain....

Sorry, if people do not include this, I laughed so hard at poor Wile, so many times, that I wanted to include him..

I also second many, many already mentioned.

[JBoy]

109. Napoleon Dynamite and Office Space

[lpbk2713]

110. That's some catch that Catch-22.

Alan Arkin played his role perfectly.

For that matter, he was also good in The Russians are Coming² and the In-Laws.

[Gore1FL]

111. Better off Dead

That movie was funny from the first second through to the ending credits.

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0088794/

112. CaddyShack

[rhiannon55]

113. The Jerk, Life of Brian, Vacation

[Dem2theMax]

Blazing Saddles, The Court Jester and Galaxy Quest are three of my very favorites.

[sts069]

118. Mystery Men, too

Let’s not forget Mystery Men, with Greg Kinnear as superhero Captain Amazing and Geoffrey Rush as supervillain Casanova von Frankenstein, and the wannabe superhero lineup of William H. Macy as the Shoveler, Ben Stiller as Mr. Furious, Hank Azaria as the Blue Rajah, Jeanne Garofalo as the Bowler,... great stuff. Came out around the same time (ish) as Galaxy Quest, another underrated, terrifically funny movie with a superb cast (Tim Russell, Sigourney Weaver, Alan Rickman, Tony Shalhoub,...)

[Stonepounder]

Blazing saddles
Young Frankenstien
Ferris Bueller's day off
The Stepford wives ( with Mathew Broderick)

Wyld Stallions! LOL
So Crates, Historical Babes, etc.
I just love watching Beethoven and pals in the mall. AND it has George Carlin!

[bullwinkle428]

139. Nobody has mentioned "Midnight Run". DeNiro was fantastic in one of his first comedic roles,

but Charles Grodin absolutely steals the movie as the totally dead-pan mob accountant on the run from the law.

[lark]

140. Little Shop of Horrors!

I think this is my all time fave movie, so funny, Steve Martin is a total gem in his supporting role and of course Rick Moranis slays it.

Blazing Saddles is 1a
Young Frankenstein

[consider_this]

145. Agree!

This one is totally hilarious and one of my all time faves. Very fun songs too.

[lark]

146. Exactly - the songs just make it so unique.

Glad you enjoy it too. Like Blues Brothers and Rocky Horror Show, I always come back to these faves.

National Lampoon's European Vacation
Young Frankenstein

Everything already mentioned.

[Stuart G]

159. A scene in "There's Something About Mary" .."The Zipper Scene" had me rolling in the asiles...

I was laughing so hard, and I was the only one,,it was an afternoon crowd, people in 60s & 70s...& they didn't think it was funny, but I sure as hell did....Maybe the hardest laugh in a movie I ever had..
