The Whole Ten Yards is a very funny movie that isn't very old.

Made
American Splendor
Sideways
Rushmore

If Annie Hall doesn't make this list there shouldn't be a list.

[CollinEstes]

Are you guys talking about the sequel to the whole nine yards, because that movie wasn't near as good as the first one. The whole nine yards was really funny.

[Kirg]

Ferris Bueller's Day Off
The Blues Brothers
Shrek 2
The Princess Bride
Monty Python and the Holy Grail
Rocky Horror Picture Show (not exactly a pure comedy)
Liar Liar
Amelie
Annie Hall

The upcoming Family Guy movie Stewie Griffin: The Untold Story! [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

And damnit the post-1975 thing sucks. Few movies mentioned so far come close to rivaling things like Modern Times, random abbot and costello, random jerry lewis, random tony curtis, random buster keaton movies.

Nutty Professor was funny when it came out. Anyways I can add The Three Amigos.

No, you can't. This poll is restricted to comedies.

Not necessarily comedies, but movies which made me laugh the most when I first saw them:

A Fish Called Wanda: especially Kevin Kline

Alladin: Robin Williams unhinged

Analyze This: "Him I don't know."

Arthur: John Gielgud, of all people, was the comedy star

Dirty Rotten Scoundrels: "Rupret!"

Fargo: "You should see the other guy"

Goodfellas: Pesci

Good Morning Vietnam: Robin William unleashed

Planes, Trains & Automobiles: I wasn't a John Candy fan, but he was wonderful here

Rainman: "We're counting cards"

[/ QUOTE ]

Since OP said we could claim some nominations as not being pure comedies: sorry, but I'm suggesting an unnominating of Goodfellas and Fargo.

While there are funny parts in all of these, none of them are pure (or even 90%) comedies, and IMHO we've got enough to work with already anyway.

[LoaferGee12]

Shark Attack 3: Megallodon.

[CollinEstes]

What genre would The Three Amigos fall under then, action? You're telling me it isn't a comedy?

Being John Malkovich should be in this thing for sure. What is it if not a comedy?
