[Faygo Kid]

5. The Russians Are Coming The Russians Are Coming

Was just thinking of this the other day. Fantastic cast, including Carl Reiner as Whitaker Walt.

[Laffy Kat]

57. This was on the other night and I'd forgotten how funny it was.

It's kind of sweet, too.

[Faygo Kid]

63. It immediately jumped to mind, for some reason. Like this.

Love that film. Many others, too, but that one is special with special people.

[underpants]

6. Logan Lucky

Star studded. Very funny.

I never really got The Producers. 🤔

[Stuart G]

Another classic - Some Like it Hot!

[Stuart G]

[Laffy Kat]

58. "The Gods Must Be Crazy"

Funny for all ages.

[MLAA]

9. Galaxy Quest

[Siwsan]

10. A Mighty Wind. Actually, pretty much any Christopher Guest 'ensemble' film.

Starting with 'Spinal Tap'.

[Mr.Bill]

29. Best In Show was also great. n/t

[Stuart G]

11. Animal House...Jim Belushi

[Earthshine2]

48. That's John Belushi, who is long deceased.

[Stuart G]

12. Ghostbusters..

[electric_blue68]

24. Yes, soooo funny, and..

I actually saw them filming at the firehouse! 😁

Oh, I didn't know what it was - but I noticed there
was what I called "a Casper The Ghost with an International No Symbol over it" Sign hanging over
the door!

I was totally intrigued. Unfortunately it was
like late Nov in the evening by the quite westside of Tribecca near The Hudson River cold, and windy (like today was). I'd just came out of a new health food & grocery store after finishing my 9 to 5 with loads of groceries. Tired, cold, etc I decided not to get closer. Ah, well.

Then when I saw the movie - "omg, I saw that!!!
😂😂😂

[rurallib]

13. For an oldie you gotta go with "Arsenic an Old Lace" with Cary Grant

Or another Grant vehicle "Front Page"

[Stuart G]

20. Arsenic and Old Lace...................."..Charge....Charge the Blockhouse..!!!!!"

[csziggy]

31. Arsenic and Old Lace is one of my all time favorite movies

So is Front Page, but the Cary Grant version was His Girl Friday made in 1940 with Rosalind Russell and Ralph Bellamy. The original 1931 version had Adolphe Menjou, Pat O'Brien, and Peggy Grant.

I actually even liked the 1974 version with Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau, and especially Carol Burnett's Molly Malloy.

[Upthevibe]

38. rurallib....

I have Arsenic and Old Lace on my DVR. I normally go to sleep to it every night. IMHO, It's a PERFECT movie. Carey Grant was at his very best. And the entire cast is perfect as well.

[rurallib]

49. It is a classic

[Wounded Bear]

14. Pure Luck...obscure but worth the search...

Martin Short and Danny Glover in a flick about happenstance and the unluckiest guy alive, hired to find the unluckiest woman alive.

[Pantagruel]

15. 1964

"A Shot in the Dark"

[Stuart G]

16. The Bank Dick....W.C.Fields.

[leftieNanner]

18. Waiting for Guffman

Another Christopher Guest one.

[Upthevibe]

39. leftieNanner....

Absolutely! When someone else posted Best in Show, I mentioned Waiting for Guffman as well - hysterical!

"I'm gonna go home and bite my pillow" and "You're bastard people" - two of my favorite lines!

[Stuart G]

19. A scene from...There's Something About Mary... that had me laughing so hard that

when the movie was playing in the theater, I became a nuisance. A couple of us thought the scene was absolutely funny....but some didn't get it....

You will know what scene if you watch it...and Yes, you will laugh at most of this film. (at least I did)

[Upthevibe]

40. Stuart G....

I LOVED There's Something About Mary. There were many, many scenes that made me laugh 'till I cried but I think I know which scene you're speaking of...

[ironflange]

21. Oh Brother, Where Art Thou?

I'm watching it on AMC at this very moment.

[Glorfindel]

22. Rat Race

You...Should...Have...Bought...a Squirrel

[electric_blue68]

23. 😂 Mrs Doubtfire!. Yes, The Producers, too.

[mpcamb]

25. Office Space

[Upthevibe]

41. mpcamb....

Office Space NEVER gets old for me! It's perfection - too many lines to quote....

[Zorro]

26. Tropic Thunder

A modern comedy classic. Tom Cruise is awesome.

[Karadeniz]

27. MY COUSIN VINNY...I can rewatch it forever!

[Upthevibe]

42. Karadeniz....

Absolutely! I LOVE My Cousin Vinny!

[Karadeniz]

44. When that one lawyer struts so confidently right up to the jury box and his client is smirking at

How the whole mess is going to disappear... And then the lawyer starts stuttering... I can barely breathe from laughing so hard and my eyes are tearing up... Oh! The scene in the jail cell when the nephew's friend thinks Vinny is propositioning him for sex! That has to be one of the best scripts ever written!

[AmyStrange]

That and Groundhog Day.

My favorite part is when Marisa Tomei testifies.
=========

[Karadeniz]

54. That script should've won an Oscar!

[Mr.Bill]

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

A who's who of the comedy stars of that era. (1960) As a bonus, there is no profanity at all in this movie. You can watch it with small children.

[TexasBushwhacker]

30. Groundhog Day

Showing at your local AMC for $5, if you're interested.

[Upthevibe]

43. TexasBushwhacker....

Groundhog Day (IMHO) exceeds a "typical" funny movie. Even though it IS very funny- there turns out to be quite a bit of depth that kind of takes it to another level.

[TexasBushwhacker]

61. I agree. No here's something weird

There was a short film called 12:01pm that was made 3 years before Groundhog Day where a man repeats the same hour over and over. It was a drama and was nominated to for an Oscar. You can check it out here:

"Don't drive angry."

Other than My Cousin Vinny, it's my second favorite movie to watch over and over.

32. How about The Trouble with Harry

With a young John Forsythe, Jerry Mathers before he played Beaver, and Shirley MacLaine in her first movie role. Directed by Alfred Hitchcock, it is a very subtle comedy. I love the feel of rural Vermont and the characters.

It can be seen on Classic Reels streaming or Prime Video.

[Rhiannon12866]

33. A Thousand Clowns (1965) with Jason Robards

[UTUSN]

36. A Fish Called Wanda. High Anxiety. Funny Thing/Forum.

[flotsam]

45. Cat Ballou

Lee Marvin as the drunken gunfighter singing "Happy Birthday" and blowing out the candles around the coffin of the man he was hired to protect...

[sarge43]

46. Oldies but goldies

It Happened One Night and The Lady Eve.

Two Loonie Tunes classics: What's Opera, Doc and One Froggy Evening.

[Stuart G]

55. You won't believe this, but I met the director of "What's Opera Doc" and "One Froggy Evening"

One of the greatest directors of animation....Chuck Jones...

There was a an art show where he was selling some animated cells. I met him for a few moments and shook
his hand if I recall. Last 30 years or so, learning and knowing about cartoons (esp Warner Bros. cartoons) has
been a hobby of mine. I grew up in the 50s where the local movie theater always showed the latest Warner
Brothers cartoons. That is how my love of cartoons started. On special holidays when school was called off
(like Washington's Birthday) that theater had toon shows, 25 cartoons, one after another for 25 cents...
...................(what a deal).................................

[sarge43]

60. I envy you. Jones was one of the giants.

Saturday afternoon at the movies: News of the Day, two cartoons (always hoped for Loonie Tunes), a serial and a feature length. *Those were the days ...

[malaise]

47. Add Office Space

Blazing Saddles and Best in Show were also hilarious

[zanana1]

50. "Don't call me Shirley"...

I think Airplane is the funniest.

[Mad_Dem_X]

53. Tootsie

Dustin Hoffman, Jessica Lange, Teri Garr, Bill Murray...the whole cast is fantastic.

[tblue37]

56. "Knight and Day" is also good fun. Yeah, Tom Cruise, but it's a good, amusing movie.

[captain queeg]

62. Naked Gun. Even OJ was funny.

[myccrider]

64. Harvey

Jimmy Stewart and his pooka. One of my all time faves.

I second (or 3rd or whatever) Arsenic and Old Lace. Another favorite of mine. Have both on VHS, dvd and bought to stream!
