Just want to mention "The Jerk" as it hasn't gotten a nod, but probably should imo.

 

Also....im no doctor, but if you didn't like anchorman....you might not have a soul. might want to get that checked out.

Did you see a pre-screening??? I have heard it is possibly the funniest movie ever, and, out of the few previews i have seen, it looks hilarious.

 

I don't get all this love for Dumb and Dumber.

 

Annoying?

 

Yes.

 

Funny?

 

No.

 

:thumbsup:

 

Part of the reason why it was so funny was because they were annoying...

 

Who needs a radio??

saw it on a preview a couple of weeks ago , and yes it IS the funniest movie you will ever see, ( as long as your not jewish or female or gay, or if you are and dont have a sense of humor)

Just to comment on a few mentioned:

- Fletch lasted too long to make a list, that movie is hysterical.

- Raising Arizona -- Living in AZ I thought it was hillarious, didn't realize it transcended the area so much though. :thumbsup:

- Dumb and Dumber doesn't even make a best-of list for Jim Carrey. Liar Liar, Ace Ventura, and Cable Guy were all way funnier IMO.

Top 5

 

1: Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls (first one not so funny. This one still gets me laughing).

2: Caddy Shack (absolute classic).

3: Office Space (anyone who has worked in a cubicle will love this flick)

4: Tommy Boy (Farley at his pre-death best).

5: Revenge of the Nerds

 

Top 5 Over Rated (in my opinion)

 

1: Anchor Man (seriously, what was funny about this movie?)

2: Old School (a few good moments but overall not so good)

3: Airplane (just too goofy for me)

4: Vacation (see Old School)

5: Animal House (not my generation).

(Farley at his pre-death best)

Yeah, his post-death movies are a little lacking in things like moving around, talking, and breathing.

 

Unfortunately, these are elements which seem to be critical to his comedic style.

I have to give some love to Spinal Tap -- I've had times where I've randomly laughed when someone says "11".

 

"The Jerk" is an underrated classic, IMO. Any movie that starts with Steve Martin saying "I was born a poor black child" has got to get some love (I know it's already gotten some on this thread, but it's one of my favs)

 

Another good Steve Martin movie: "Dirty Rotten Scoundrels".

Dirty Rotten Scoundrels

 

Maybe this movie was funny in its time but I recently watched it for the first time and if it came out in theaters today, it would get 1 star if it was lucky.

I dont get the love for Big lebowski. It was ok and everything. It gets so much love here that I TIVOed it and watched it again, just to make sure I wasnt missing anything. It was still just OK. Nothing more. I laughed a few times, it was somewhat entertaining but no where near the top 5 of funny movies.

 

Also....im no doctor, but if you didn't like anchorman....you might not have a soul. might want to get that checked out.

Guess I dont have a soul. The movie had a lot of funny quotable parts, that is about it. Most of the movie sucked.

i dont think anyone forgot either of those movies.

 

Austin Powers was slightly funny.

 

Strange Brew was funny if you were from up north somewhere. Not funny even slightly in my opinion.

Best in Show and Anchorman are the only movies that I can remember laughing the entire way through. A lot of comedies that people consider classics have stretches that get kind of dull (Caddyshack, Office Space). I agree with whoever said that Zoolander is underrated.
