Your top 7 comedies ever
Posted on 3/2/09 at 3:53 pm
Posted on 3/2/09 at 3:53 pm
As in your favorite...not necessarily "the funniest" ever (though it would make sense if you thought they were).
5 seems like it's not enough (twss). 10 seems like too many. So how about 7. Here are mine, in no order:
Dumb and Dumber
40 Year Old Virgin
The Jerk
Blazing Saddles
Spaceballs
Monty Python/Holy Grail
Billy Madison
There are many more I could rotate in and out of the last three spots if I were to make a top ten (like Christmas Vacation, SuperBad, Old School, Something About Mary, etc.), but those are pretty much my 7 favorite comedies of all time. If I had to choose one of them that would be my absolute favorite...meaning I laughed the most, it would prolly be Dumb and Dumber. I laughed throughout the entire movie, start to finish. And I laugh just as much now as I did in 1994 when it came out. I think that says a lot about the movie.
Note: There are some "classics" that I've yet to see, such as Young Frankenstein, History of the World P1, Airplane (well, not all of it at least), so I expect my list to be criticised somewhat.

I definitely should have Billy Madison in my top 7. But at the last minute, I deleted it and put Christmas Vacation.
F it, I'm putting it back.

You gotta have Cheech and Chong: Up in Smoke somewhere.
Pedro: Hey how am I driving, man?
Man Stoner: [looks around] : I think we're parked

If it were a top ten, Friday, Christmas Vacation, and Office Space would likely be my last three.
But alas, it's a top 7.

Not necessarily the funniest or the best, but my favorite 7
Billy Madison - the first movie (maybe second behind Sandlot) that I could quote verbatim. I suck at impersonations but for some reason I could always do Sandler and this movie was sort of associated with my friends and I in jr high/high school
There's Something About Mary - has one of my favorite scenes of all time (the hitchhiker)
Dumb and Dumber - the hardest I've ever laughed at a movie
This Is Spinal Tap! - the funniest movie EVER. Period.
Being There (more of a Dromedy) - just a lighthearted, really pleasant tongue-in-cheek film with a little intelligence
Dr. Strangelove - Kubrick's best, IMHO, and a sickeningly funny satire of post-Industrial America's obsession with war
Monty Python and the Holy Grail - the only movie that can challenge This Is Spinal Tap! in my mind

I've heard good things about Best In Show, but have never seen it.
I'm thinking I need to watch this pretty soon.
