for me it was resident evil (meant to be a horror/thriller :[img]http://www.abandonia.com/forum/html/emoticons/laugh.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='laugh.gif' />)
half-baked but funny

Sebatianos 25-01-2005 05:44 AM

Well if you mean the funniest screw up, then I'd have to say: Pearl Harbour - I loughed so hard during that movie (just watching the expressions on other people's faces).
Otherwise the best comedies: I go for the really old school! http://www.abandonia.com/~sebatianos/groucho.gif

The Marx Brothers - most of all - The Night at the Opery
non-Marxist movies ( :D ): The Man who came to Dinner, Some like it Hot, George Washington slept here,...
Newer stuff (not really new, just in colour already): Buddy Buddy, High Anxsiety (Mel Brooks rocks!), Also Young Frankenstein (although made in BW), And I laughed really hard at Mr. Been - The Movie, but the ones that really stand out are the Pythons - LIFE OF BRIAN!!! (and the other two of their movies).

Ferris Buelers Day Off. Great classic of teenage movies. I recently got this one on DVD (had it already on VHS). Still entertains.

Not completely on topic but I would love to see the rip off series that was made from this movie, Parker Lewis can't lose again. Also great.

The funniest movie I have ever seen, is a danish movie called: "I Kina spiser de hunde", which means "In China they eat dogs". :D

Funny stuff.

Dumb & Dumber

I've seen it at least a dozen times by now, and I still never get tired of it. Truly brilliant comedy.

"Look at the funbags on that hosehound."

Iron_Scarecrow 25-01-2005 09:50 AM

mr. bean the movie

Fawfulhasfury 25-01-2005 03:22 PM

Wow. there are too many. all of them I'd say off hand. :D Ace ventura is a definite one. Monty python, too. the naked gun series.

TheVoid 25-01-2005 03:29 PM

Robin Hood - Men in Tights was lot of fun :D

Reup 25-01-2005 03:31 PM

I'd have to agree with Bohor. "Monty Python and the Quest for the Holy Grail" is indeed the funniest movie ever made imho. I've watched it over thirty times and it still amazes me. I recently got it on DVD since my VHS had some quality-problems after being watched that many times :D
Although "Bad Taste" (the first movie Peter Jackson ever made) is also quite funny...

rainwife 25-01-2005 11:00 PM

Well, I "have to" watch movies with Seb usually - so I do agree about The Marx Brothers, Robin Hood men in tights and off course the Monty Pythons.

I also liked Cool Runingsand Rat Race (remember the cow hanging from the ballon getting hit by the bus full of Lucy - fans)??

But as it was already mentioned - there are too many movies - some were so stupid, I just had to laugh :ok:

feminista 26-01-2005 12:05 AM

Hmmm... Pulp Fiction is certainly up there. The Philadelphia Story is great, and All About Eve has some awesome dialogue, as bitter and cynical as it is. Lock, Stock, and Tow Smoking Barrels deserves a mention too.

wendymaree 26-01-2005 12:14 AM

I liked There's A Girl In My Soup with Peter Sellers and Goldie Hawn. For me, the trouble with comedies is that they can get too silly. I don't understand 'silly'
humour. Totally unmoved by them. An example of that is the Police Academy series. I prefer humour if it's clever, and it can be satisfying to see strong, confident characters placed in embarrassing situations, especially Julia Roberts. :whistle:

Fawfulhasfury 26-01-2005 12:23 AM

The pink panther series.

wendymaree 26-01-2005 12:35 AM

Oh, yes, I forgot them. They're great - even the theme is funny and sensational. We must both we fans of Peter. :)

Fawfulhasfury 26-01-2005 12:50 AM

Yes we are. I like Airplane too.

mahahelel 26-01-2005 12:53 AM

I haven't seen Clerks, I agrre with the first 4 but Zoolander :eeeeeh: :sick: (IMHO).

I just remembered the first time I saw Austin Powers (the international man of mistery), it was at midnight, we were all a bit :drunk: and the movie started. I was laugingh so hard I started crying (most off all the scene with the cart getting stuck in the hall).

Imo - In my opinion
w00t - 'What!?' term used for expressing surprise/happiness.

Wael 26-01-2005 06:33 PM

Ah,

In my honest opinion?

I was at the time of watching the movie...
Never actually watched it again (although I have it on tape). Guess I never dared - I just knew it would spoil the fun memories I have of it...

Some other great movies:
- What about Bob
- Dirty Rotten Scaundrells
- The Tree Amigos
- Ghostbusters (off course - how could I have missed that)
- and a movie I wouldn't even place in the comedy section, but it's funny also (but mostly brilliant: Dr. Strangelove or How I stopped fearing and learned to love the bomb (actually also a film with Peter Sellers).
