Funniest films you've ever seen?

What are your favorite film comedies?

My list (In no particular order):

- KIDS IN THE HALL: BRAIN CANDY - Great great great great great comedy. Some of the best stuff KITH has ever done.

- L'AGE D'OR - Bunuel is a genius and this movie is absolutely hilarious. Don't let the fact that this is a surrealist silent short film scare you, you could possibly be rendered unable to breathe due to its level of funny.

- DR. STRANGELOVE - Best film satire ever? I would think so.

- FREDDY GOT FINGERED - Sorry guys but I gotta admit that I am one of the biggest supporters of this film. I see it as the most perfect parody of high-concept comedies starring former SNL cast-members you could possibly want. Everything about this film is hilarious. Random humor done right.

- ZAZIE DANS LE METRO - Extremely underlooked French classic. Is able to joke about extremely sensitive subject matter (Like pedophilia) in hilarious and cartoonish ways.

- RAISING ARIZONA - Everything about this movie is awesome and purely hilarious. Some of the best dialogue I've ever heard in a movie, comedy or not. I can't believe this was a second film.

Cheyenne Jackson tickled me. AFTER ordering SoMMS a drink but NOT tickling him, and hanging out with Girly in his dressing room (where he DIDN'T tickle her) but BEFORE we got married. To others. And then he tweeted Boobs. He also tweeted he's good friends with some chick on "The Voice" who just happens to be good friends with Tink's ex. And I'm still married. Oh, and this just in: "Pettiness, spite, malice ....Such ugly emotions... So sad." - After Eight, talking about MEEEEEEEE!!! I'm so honored! :-)

March of the Wooden Soldiers (My seven-year-old self found it impossibly funny.)

And, not a TV show, but I remember watching the Nickelodeon show "Cousin Skeeter" and just thinking it was the funniest thing ever.

Men In Tights

"You have two kinds of shows on Broadway – revivals and the same kind of musicals over and over again, all spectacles. You get your tickets for The Lion King a year in advance, and essentially a family... pass on to their children the idea that that's what the theater is – a spectacular musical you see once a year, a stage version of a movie. It has nothing to do with theater at all. It has to do with seeing what is familiar.... I don't think the theatre will die per se, but it's never going to be what it was.... It's a tourist attraction." Stephen Sondheim

Anyone else really, really enjoy My Man Godfrey?
I got the DVD for my birthday- I hadn't seen it in years. It still cracked me up like crazy.
