Dirty Rotten Scoundrels and Blazing Saddles - funny movies. Coming to America? I think I may actually have left in the middle of that one.

I vote for:

Dumb and Dumber
the first Ace Ventura

let's see, what else...funny how you can draw a complete blank trying to think of things like this...

Dumb & Dumber is so routinely overlooked as a comedy classic that it simply astounds me. That movie is brilliant. Flat out brilliant. IMO, one of the most criminally underrated modern movies in any genre.

My first thought when reading the title of this thread was Dumb and Dumber. Seems people either love or hate it though. There seem to be a lot of people who question the intelligence of anyone who could possibly find Dumb and Dumber entertaining. I still think its great.

Another good one: Not Another Teen Movie.

[Sooga]

You know what infuriates me? People that say Dumb & Dumber was a bad movie because it's so stupid. Well, yea, that's the whole point! What do you expect out of a movie called 'Dumb & Dumber'? It's not a movie that's going to force you to think about social issues or some sort of philosophical idea. It was made purely as a comedy; to make you laugh. And it does a FANTASTIC job doing that, which is why it should be considered a great movie.

Man, I totally agree. Sure it's got a few jokes in there that, for me anyway, weren't particularly funny (I distinctly remember seeing this in the theater, and thinking during the first few minutes that it was going to be horrible), but the rest of it had me in tears. I think this movie may have helped start a trend of increasingly tacky humor in movies (a trend I personally am not a fan of), and I think it's possible that that may have something to do with the fact that a lot of people don't seem to agree that this movie is a classic. Or maybe not. I don't know. For me, it's one of the greatest movies of all time.

Your list made me sad.

Jackass was so disappointing, I can't even say.

Please, let's look at some of the following:

Annie Hall
This is...Spinal Tap
Pee Wee's Big Adventure
Shakes The Clown
Monty Python and the Holy Grail
Dr. Strangelove
Clerks

That's just off the top of my head.

Certainly it is true that Blazing Saddles, Animal House, and Young Frankenstein all belong on the list.

Maybe The Blues Brothers.

Wow, your list made me sad... Here's mine:

Dumb and Dumber
Super Troopers
Clerks
Beavis and Butthead
Anything with Tom Cruise cause he sucks so bad its funny.

"Anything with Tom Cruise cause he sucks so bad its funny. "

I liked Collateral and A Few Good Men was good...

[Rushmore]

And now, I am even more sad than before.

BTW, I forgot, Happy Gilmore deserves a nod ("You eat pieces of sh*t for breakfast?").

And how can you tell me my list sucks, then use one of my picks (Clerks) as evidence my list sucks??!

Were you trying to be ironical?

Maybe we're both just generally sad.

Sigh.
