Funniest movies ever

[mikeli4194]

Maybe I've been getting cynical lately, but I've noticed that it's increasingly rare that a so-called "comedy" movie genuinely and frequently makes me laugh. However, there are exceptions to this, so I would like you guys to share the movies that you believe are the funniest ever. (P.S. Remember, "funniest" is the key word. It doesn't have to be "good" by any normal definition to still be funny. It can be funny in a MST3K way)

Some examples:

Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs
The Jackass movies
21 Jump Street
Twilight (unintentional, but still funny, especially if you watch it in a movie theater)
Pulp Fiction

 

[Aris Khandr]

You can't go wrong with the classics.

Monty Python and the Quest for the Holy Grail
The Princess Bride
Pretty much any movie starring The Marx Brothers

 

[FalloutJack]

Trying not to mention anything mentioned already...

The Three Stooges
Brain Donors (Marx Brothers-esque movie)
Mars Attacks!
Dr. Strangelove
Pink Panther movies (with Peter Sellers)
Murder By Death
Tropic Thunder
Fight Club
Formula 51

 

[Sean Hollyman]

21 Jump Street made me laugh my fricking ass off.

No movie has ever done that before

 

[King of Asgaard]

Intentionally funny would be something like Monty Python (any of them; they're all gold) or Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb.
EDIT: Ooh ooh, Tenacious D and The Pick Of Destiny is pretty funny too.

Visioneers, apart from just being one of the best movies you've probably never heard of, has some downright hilarious moments. Now don't misunderstand, it is a dark comedy, and it takes the "dark" part of its dark comedy really seriously. So it's not a feel good romp for the whole family. That said, Zach Galafinakis playing strait man to a vision of corporate America so dark it's practically bathing in parody just worked really well for it. So not only is it one of the most thoughtful movies I've ever seen, it's one of the funniest as well. When it wants to be that is.

To be honest the only film I was recently very pleasantly surprised with was Pineapple express. I laughed my ass off . I won't bother mentioning the classics because everyone knows them

 

[Vanitas likes Bubbles]

Very few movies make me laugh but I remember laughing my head off at Borat.

 

[keideki]

Super Troopers.

Every time I watch that movie I am left in stitches. I could probably quote the whole movie from start to finish due to the fact that I have seen it more times than I care to count.

Blazing Saddles
Robin Hood: Men in Tights
Space Balls
History of the World: Part 1

Pretty much any movie by Mel Brooks will have you laughing the whole time.

 

[Dragoon]

I love funny kung-fu movies: Shaolin Soccer, Kung-Pow Enter the Fist and Kung-Fu Hustle are my favourites.

 

[surg3n]

Monty Python Holy Grail
Talladega Nights
Friday
Baseketball
Team America
Joe Dirt
Lock Stock and 2 Smoking Barrels
Snatch

 

[RedDeadFred]

I'm gonna have to go with Borat. I have never laughed that much throughout a movie. I was laughing so hard that I was crying through a lot of it. My stomach muscles actually hurt after watching that movie because of how much I had been laughing.

 

[OmniscientOstrich]

Shaun of the Dead. Easily my favourite comedy.

 

[Nantucket_v1legacy]

The Hangover, Dead Heat, Transylvania 6-5000, Airplane, Shrek, The South Park Movie, The Comic Strip Presents..., Shark Attack 3

I will think of more later when this board is forgotten and buried no doubt.

 

[Arfonious]

Dead men don't wear plaid

That or perhaps airplane

 

[Kielgasten]

Anything starring Leslie Nielsen
Rest in Piece you magnificent bastard!



Oh, and Hot Shots I & II

 

[Elementary - Dear Watson]

Lock, Stock and two smoking barrels,
Snatch,
Shawn of the Dead,
Hot Fuzz,
Black Ball,
The Inbetweeners,
Step Brothers,
Anchorman,
Napoleon Dynamite,
Every last muppet film! But mostly Muppet's Treasure Island...

Well, they are my favourite comedies, and ones I could watch on repeat!

Tucker & Dale Vs Evil. It's quite simply the funniest movie i've seen in the last decade or so.
