Terrible list, for the reasons stated in Yoshue's post.

We need to do a KJ Comedy list like we did with the quotes list.

Actually, it's a GREAT idea Groucho. I'm not sure whether you're actually volunteering for this or just throwing it out there, but if you would want any help coordinating it, I would love to assist.

Wow I thought the list was ok at first (though some good movies are criminally low) but then when I reached the end I was amazed by its complete suckage. The only thing I like about it is the Naked Gun series being ranked so high.

The list didn't look too bad, with a few Bill Murray films.

Then I see Napolean Dynamite and Shrek in the top 12, and I vomitted.

I'm all for having a fair amount of recent movies on a list like this, but this one is retarded.

The Incredibles isn't a comedy.

They include the first Austin Powers movie(I think?), but not the much funnier Spy Who Shagged Me or Goldmember?

Best in Show? The hell?

The Wedding Singer... :blink: ... Napolean Dynamite... :blink: Meet the FOCKERS?... :blink: :blink: :blink:

And I agree the list didn't look too bad at the very beginning. Anchorman, Zoolander, Happy Gilmore, Team America all would've been fine top half choices if the bottom half lived up to it's promise. Of course it didn't though.

However bad the rest of the list is, seeing Pee Wee's Big Adventure at number 11 gets me all warm and fuzzy inside.

I'd go so far as to say neither film belongs on the list.

While I of course don't agree with half of the selections, they have some great ones on there...Stripes is one of the funniest films I have ever seen. I'm also glad that they included some of the modern funny films.

I guess I'm wondering why Meet the Fockers is supposedly funnier than Dr. Strangelove, Young Frankenstein and A Fish Called Wanda. I mean, not even the original movie is #25...the sequel is.

I liked it just fine, but...no.


The whole list is just, but...no

This list itself isn't to bad, but the rankings look like they done by someone who was high at the time.

yeah that list is very bad, mostly because of the ranking. The Birdcage is seriously funnier than most of these movies.

Napoleon Dynamite at #14?!!?!? Pee-Wee's Big Adventure?! i dont remember it being all that funny. Shrek #3?!..... i love Shrek but one of the funniest? No

This list is terrible.

And it doesn't even have Duck Soup or A Night At The Opera on it. For shame.
