weemcd

de5p0i1er

Here are some of mine in no particular order.

Ace Ventura Pet Detective.
Happy Gilmore.
Blazing Saddles.
Dumb and Dumber.
All the Monty Pythons.
BASEket Ball.
South Park Bigger Longer & Uncut.
Blues Brothers.

Karl Hungus

Withnail & I
Young Frankenstein
Return Of The Living Dead
The Big Lebowski
Monty Python (All)

Dissident Aeon

Well, I personnally liked American Pie, all of the Monty Pythons...

But not one movie was able to make me laugh as much as the owl in the Walt Disney Cartoon called, I think, Merlin..or so. I know it's stupid, but I can't help it. I hate Walt Disney usually, but that tiny scene made me laugh anormously

Frank Grimes

The Holy Grail, Meaning of Life (I'm not a big Life of Brian fan), Dogma, Evil Dead 2 & 3 (I know, technically not comedy but they're hilarious).

mystik

Scary movie
scary movie 2 was probably the most disapointing films i'v ever seen apart from Road trip, the martix reloaded and Harry pothead and the chamber of secrets. (I knew it was going to crap but not THAT crap)

South park movie is hillarious and i found spy kids, for some strange reason, really funny and most of the jokes were strangely grown up for a kids movie.

Also found being john malcovich funny in a weird sort of way.

LFCFan

What about Bob? (Bill Murray is pure genius in this. Rose's are red, violets are blue, I'm a schitzophrenic and so am I)
Happy Gilmore (Best Adam Sandler film)
Ali G in da House (wasn't expecting much but some of the scenes had me in tears)
Life of Brian (He's not the Messiah, he's a very naughty boy)
Holy Grail (The knights that say Ich)
Dumb and Dumber ('nough said)
Me, Myself and Irene (His kids are so funny)
Ace Ventura (Jim Carrey is a comic genius)
Liar Liar (see above)
See no evil, Hear no evil/Stir Crazy (wilder and Prior at their best)
Blazing Saddles (mel brooks's best movie)
The Producers (mel brooks's second best movie)

Steve_o

I like the Ace Ventura films but my fav is probably Rush Hour because of Chris Tucker!

Tusky

Withnail and I
All the monty pythons
Happy Gilmore

cant think of anything else

mavedic

I would also highly recommend Blazing Saddles for a barrel of laugh. Monty Python films always get me laughing as well, although they're not everybody's cup of tea.

Mills

Hmmmm, of "comedy" films I'd say The Big Lebowski or Withnail & I, but comedy films don't tickle my funny bone as much as films that aren't comedy but have some humour in them, like Donnie Darko and Adaptation recently, to pick two off the top of my head.

Tha Gopher

The Naked Gun films,particularly the last one.So many great lines from these(got some from quote websites)

" Like a midget at a urinal...I was going to have to stay on my toes."

"Like a blind man at an orgy, I was going to have to feel my way through"

Frank-"Thats a red light district, what would he be doing there?"
Ed - Sex, Frank?
Frank - No, not right now Ed. We got work to do."

Frank: Sergeant Frank Drebin, Detective Lieutenant, Police Squad.
Guard: Yeah, and I'm Robert De Niro.
Frank: Mr. De Niro, we have got to get inside!


Lt. Frank Drebin: Now, Jane, what can you tell us about the man you saw last night?
Jane Spencer: He's Caucasian.
Ed Hocken: Caucasian?
Jane Spencer: Yeah, you know, a white guy. A mustache. About five-foot-ten.
Lt. Frank Drebin: That's an awfully big mustache.


When Nordberg is nearly killed on a stake out
Wife-Who could do this to him?
Frank-It could be anybody.A roaming gang of thugs,a blackmailer,an angry husband,a secret gay lover.......

Then Nordberg becomes semi concious and tries to tell Frank about the ship full of drugs at the harbour.He can barely speak
Nordberg-Uh,Frank.....a.....a....a yacht.
Frank-Yes Nordberg.When you are better we will go sailing in a yacht.
Nordberg-No.......d...d...drugs Frank.
Frank-Nurse get this man some meication immeadiately!
Nordberg-No.....Frank......heroin!
Frank-Heroin?Thats a tall order Nordberg.Your going to have to give me a few hours to get you it.

And this is one of my favourites
Lt. Frank Drebin: Hector Savage. From Detroit. Ex-boxer. His real name was Joey Chicago.
Ed Hocken: Oh, yeah. He fought under the name of Kid Minneapolis.
Nordberg: I saw Kid Minneapolis fight once. In Cincinnati.
Lt. Frank Drebin: No you're thinking of Kid New York. He fought out of Philly.
Ed Hocken: He was killed in the ring in Houston. By Tex Colorado. You know, the Arizona Assassin.
Nordberg: Yeah, from Dakota. I don't remember it was North or South.
Lt. Frank Drebin: North. South Dakota was his brother. From West Virginia.

quest for the holy grail





It's a shot gun Sol.

It's a ****ing anti-aircraft gun Vincent!!

ScArY_Cheese

lol, quest for the holy grail thats a classic:

[clop clop clop]
King Arthur: Whoa there!
[clop clop clop]
Soldier #1: Halt! Who goes there?
Arthur: It is I, Arthur, son of Uther Pendragon, from the castle of Camelot. King of the Britons, defeater of the Saxons, Sovereign of all England!
Soldier #1: Pull the other one!
Arthur: I am, ...and this is my trusty servant Patsy. We have ridden the length and breadth of the land in search of knights who will join me in my court at Camelot. I must speak with your lord and master.
Soldier #1: What? Ridden on a horse?
Arthur: Yes!
Soldier #1: You're using coconuts!
Arthur: What?
Soldier #1: You've got two empty halves of coconut and you're bangin' 'em together.
Arthur: So? We have ridden since the snows of winter covered this land, through the kingdom of Mercia, through--
Soldier #1: Where'd you get the coconuts?
Arthur: We found them.
Soldier #1: Found them? In Mercia? The coconut's tropical!
Arthur: What do you mean?
Soldier #1: Well, this is a temperate zone.
Arthur: The swallow may fly south with the sun or the house martin or the plover may seek warmer climes in winter, yet these are not strangers to our land?
Soldier #1: Are you suggesting coconuts migrate?
Arthur: Not at all. They could be carried.
Soldier #1: What? A swallow carrying a coconut?
Arthur: It could grip it by the husk!
Soldier #1: It's not a question of where he grips it! It's a simple question of weight ratios! A five ounce bird could not carry a one pound coconut.
Arthur: Well, it doesn't matter. Will you go and tell your master that Arthur from the Court of Camelot is here?
Soldier #1: Listen. In order to maintain air-speed velocity, a swallow needs to beat its wings forty-three times every second, right?
Arthur: Please!
Soldier #1: Am I right?
Arthur: I'm not interested!
Soldier #2: It could be carried by an African swallow!
Soldier #1: Oh, yeah, an African swallow maybe, but not a European swallow. That's my point.
Soldier #2: Oh, yeah, I agree with that.
Arthur: Will you ask your master if he wants to join my court at Camelot?!
Soldier #1: But then of course a-- African swallows are non-migratory.
Soldier #2: Oh, yeah...
Soldier #1: So, they couldn't bring a coconut back anyway...
[clop clop clop]
Soldier #2: Wait a minute! Supposing two swallows carried it together?
Soldier #1: No, they'd have to have it on a line.
Soldier #2: Well, simple! They'd just use a strand of creeper!
Soldier #1: What, held under the dorsal guiding feathers?
Soldier #2: Well, why not?

damn good film i say!

Caesar_Bojangle

Like Mike
The Royal Tenenbaums
Snatch - is it really a comedy?
Dumb and Dumber
Kingpin – Its nothing spectacular, but it had its moments
The Big Lebowski
Happy Gilmore - I’ve seen it at least ten times but the manikin hand still cracks me up.

Strangely enough I love south park, but i appear to be the only guy who thinks the film was utter donkey balls?

Well to be precise I’ll laugh at anything with Adam Sandler or Ben Stiller in it.

BRING OUT THE HOLY HANDGRENADE!

-Right. How does it...erm .... how does it work

>I know not my liege.

CONSULT THE BOOK OF ARMAMENTS!!

~Book of Armaments, chapter3 verse 1 throuhg 4.
....First remove thy holy pin and count to 3
3 shalt thou count and the number of the counting shall be 3
4 shalt thou not count, nor shalt thou count 2 accepting that thou thenst proceed to three
5 is right out....!
whenst thou has counted to 3 lobest thee thy holy handgrenade at thy foe and thy foe may be blown into tiny bits.

-Right, pull out the holy pin

-1.............2.............5!

~3 sir!

-3!





ok worst, most inaccurate quoting ever but you get the jist!

hilarious!
