13. That was one of those that I think I went into it with too high expectations.
It was funny but not so much as I thought it would be.

26. I think it might be more of a guy thing, although I thought the humor was a bit more "universal" the
first time I saw it.

My wife enjoyed it but doesn't love it nearly as much as I do, I think for me it's easily the funniest comedy ever.

What I liked best though is that I thought it captured the nature of friendship between young men pretty well.

I also loved the twisted sex fiend boss.

Waiting for Guffman
This is Spinal Tap
Best in Show
A Mighty Wind

I also think the original "The Producers" (the Mel Brooks/Zero Mostel/Gene Wilder version) has to be the funniest movie I've ever seen. The opening "Springtime for Hitler" number had me helpless with laughter. Second place has to be "Monty Python and the Holy Grail". "Airplane" is also up there.

Edited on Fri Sep-28-07 08:03 AM by abq e streeter
Blues Brothers, although I'm guessing at least part of what I found so funny were the musician "inside jokes". Also Reefer Madness...The Naked Gun movies, Spy Hard, any 3 Stooges with Curly...

65. A bunch of them
Monty Python & the Holy Grail ("help help, I'm being repressed!")
Monty Python's Life of Brian ("always look on the bright side of life")
Young Frankenstein ("That's Franken-steen.")
Ruthless People ("and then, she stabilized.")

When I saw it in the theater, Bachelor Party made me laugh as an 18 year old. It doesn't really hold up that well to time and to somebody more mature, though. Kind of funny to see Tom Hanks as The Serious Actor of the modern era, however, after being in Bosom Buddies on TV and Bachelor Party in the movies, though.
