Good comedy movies?

[Cracked Bat Collector]

Ok, so normally I do not hardly any movies, but I saw Wedding Crashers last night and think it is the funniest movie ever created. I need some suggestions for other hysterical comedy movies to watch from you guys. Like I said I don't watch movies too often so I don't have any specific favorite actors or anything so fire away....

Recent:

 

Superbad

Borat

 

All Time Greats:

 

Tommy Boy

Monty Python and the Holy Grail

The Jerk

 

All Time Worst:

 

Escanaba in da Moonlight

 

*edit* 40 year old virgin was very good too, Juno was great, but not a full fledged comedy

[burniebrewer]

My faves:

 

Dumb and Dumber

Old School

Animal House

[And That]

Borat for sure. Meet The Parents and The Kentucky Fried Movie are two of the funniest films of all time, IMO.

 

Edit: Animal House is a classic, too.

[Raw Biz]

Idiocracy would have to be added as a new classic. It's too bad it wasn't released in the theaters because it is hilarious. It's probably watched best drinking with a group of friends. The first time I saw it I laughed non-stop.

[Brian the Automator]

UHF

Caddyshack

Better Off Dead

Half-Baked

Office Space

Real Genius

Waiting

[saget]

Big Lebowski

Anchorman

[thebruce44]

UHF might be the funniest movie ever.

 

I wish I thought Wedding Crashers was funny (minus the 3 min of Will Ferrel) but I just don't. Cheers to you for finding humor there.

[Oldcity]

I agree with most here but I'll add a few new ones:

 

Ghostbusters

Super Troopers

The old Pink Panther Movies

Airplane!

The Naked Gun Movies

[BrewCrewForever]

40-Year-Old Virgin

Knocked Up

This Is Spinal Tap

The Big Lebowski

Beerfest

High Fidelity

Old School

 

I could go on forever, comedies are my favorite kind of films.

[Fatter than Joey]

My favorites are Better off Dead and Office Space

 

Edit: Dodgeball is hilarious.

[twobrewers]

Wayne's World.

[RyDogg66]

I just watched "I now pronounce you Chuck and Larry" and it was pretty disappointing. It starts off really stupid, and I mean, really really bad for the first 15-20 minutes. Then it gets slowly better, sort of the classic Sandler movie, but then when it seems it might redeem itself for overall value, it goes on for another 15-20 and just peeters out. Overall I wouldnt recommend it.

[BuckyTuba]

I like darker comedies:

Grosse Pointe Blank

High Fidelity

 

Super Troopers

Knocked Up

Anchorman

40 Year Old Virgin

Ghostbusters

Juno

[PlayerHader]

I liked "I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry."

 

I'll second Dumb and Dumber. This is possibly the funniest movie of all time, pending you appreciate slapstick, "stupid" humor.

 

Don't know if I saw this one yet, but Billy Madison is awesomely funny.

[Hammer]

Tommy Boy, Happy Gilmore, Super Troopers, Old School and Beer Fest in that order for me...

 

Great memory: My nephew saw Tommy Boy once when he was 3 years old...just once. From that day until he was about 5 he said "Ah, sunnova, that'll leave a mark" every time he bumped in to something. Good stuff...

[Crazyk1294]

All mentioned are great...

 

Me, Myself & Irene

Waiting (Especially if you have ever worked in food service)

[jordanmuehl]

I watched the Ace Ventura movies for the first time in almost a decade about a week ago, and I loved them, as I did when I was younger.

[bigpeteanderson]

I just watch 40 year old virgin last night good movie.

[dadofandrew]

Some of Wedding Crashers was good, but the second half really dragged. Borat was just stupid, not funny.

 

Airplane, the Naked Gun films, Blazing Saddles, There's Something About Mary are all hilarious. Idiocracy was much better than I thought it would be, it could have been a huge success had they made it more commercial. Dirty Work is very underrated as well. Office Space has some dead spots, but is a very funny premise and idea. I really enjoyed both American Pie 1 & 2.

 

The Brady Bunch films were wonderful if you were a fan of the show.

 

Groundhog Day & Dumb and Dumber holds up to repeated viewings, as does Erin Brockovich.

[brettac1]

Along with quite a few already listed:

 

Revenge of the Nerds

Anything Woody Allen in the '70's - Sleeper, Everything You Wanted to Know, Annie Hall, Love and Death, Manhattan

[logan82]

Office Space - even if you don't work in an office it is funny. "Why should I change my name? He's the one who sucks."

Grosse Point Blank

Monty Python and the Holy Grail

Mallrats

Groundhog Day

This is Spinal Tap - "but this one goes to 11."
