Funny movies are reduced to:
- Monty Python and the Holy Grail - Monty Python's Life of Brian
;D

Ha! I did see Monty Python and the Holy Grail and I do admit that was pretty hilarious.

My favourite comedy is the movie "Orange County". Its an MTV movie, which basically means that the reason it's funny is because it's stupid. But the plot depends on it being stupid so that's okay.

I like Zoolander. It's so funny, even though a lot of people will say it's really stupid. I agree that it's pretty stupid sometimes, too, but it's still funny. ;D

Yep, that's the one! Have you seen it? Derek and his roommates are so stupid it's funny. I guess you could describe them as "sad." ;D

I saw it when it first came out a couple of years ago. What I really remember is him being a mermaid on that tv comercial. Haha, that was so funny.

Not mermaid. Merman! ;D Yeah, that was sorta weird. I like the part when Zoolander's model roommates all say, "Orange mocha frappaccino!" and then he makes that smug grin face. Ha! That part always makes me laugh. And that goes straight into the "Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go" part, and I just have to sing along. ;D

I'm not sure if it was exactly my favourite comedy, but hey! Good for a few laughs.

How about those old Abbott & Costello flicks? Granted, their sense of humour isn't for everyone, but I used to love their "Who's on First?" routine (you know - 'Who's on first?' 'That's right.') - so I really dug classics like Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein's Monster and stuff like that

Yeah, I enjoyed The Little Rascals, that was a cute movie.
As for Abbot and Costello En, I wish I could say that I had seen some of their stuff, but I think I remember hearing about it when I took Film Studies. What was their humor like?
One of my favourite comedy movies has Weird Al in it, and it's called UHF. It's another one of those movies where the plot is really weak and sort of stupid, but...well, the humor is just right up my alley.
"Not many people know this, but the turtle is mother nature's suction cup."
*licks the turtle, throws it up on the ceiling. It sticks.*
"See! Ah!" *claps hands* "Okay, now today we're going to teach poodles how to fly...."

I have to bring this up because I mentioned it in the "quotes" thread...
Ghostbusters!
In my opinion, one of the best ever produced by SNL alumni. I've never been big on SNL alumni movies (or SNL for that matter), especially the newer ones, but "Ghostbusters" and "Animal House" are definite exceptions.
Oh, and I love old Abbott and Costello movies!

wow, En, I grew up on Abbott and Costello movies--and the one with the 3 monsters is my favourite.
Movies that crack me up everytime I watch them: Animal House (and when it first came out, it was scandalous!) The Full Monty Waking Ned Devine All of Me (with Lily tomlin and Steve Martin)
