I have to many so I'll just list my favorite comedy of all time:

ROMY AND MICHELE'S HIGH SCHOOL REUNION

I love that movie, I own it and eventually I'll have to buy a new copy because I watch it so much, I've made everyone I know see it and almost everyone loves it. I can watch it over and over and over and I still love it. Definately the best and funnest comedy movie I've seen!!! It's so damn funny!!!
Lisa Kudrow and Mira Sorvino are GREAT as Romy And Michele. Does anyone else love this movie as much as I do?

It's rating:

A+
***** of ***** stars
10/10

Green
03-14-2001, 04:52 PM
I wouldn't give it an A+ but ROMY AND MICHELLES HIGH SCHOOL REUNION has some good parts, all the people I know hate it but Mira Sorvino as the ditz does a good job. Does anyone know who invented post its?

More comedies that are bad but I can't stop laughing at:
ALMOST HEROES
HIGH SCHOOL HIGH
BEVERILY HILLS NINJA

MIKE -
Yeah, ROMY AND MICHELLES... is a funny film. I saw DEUCE BIGALOW:MALE GIGOLO today. Fucking loved it. A definate contender for my list! That bitch who can't stop shouting out expletives - classic!!!! PISSFACE! PISSFACE!

Mike
03-15-2001, 05:28 PM
Yeah,
the girl with teret (I know I spelt that wrong) syndrome is hilarious. She's the one who kept swearing, she was my favorite!!! I still talk about her amongst friends who have seen the movie...

1. Animal House
2. Something About Mary
3. Dogma
4. Caddyshack
5. Blazing Saddles
6. Kingpins
7. Dumb and Dumber
8. Mallratz
9. Blues Brothers
10. Tommy Boy

As far as I'm concearned there will never be a better comedic performance than John Belushi's in Animal House. It's goint to be hard to top. I'd say the only thing that is even close is Ben Stiller in something about mary.

Oh my god, thank you. I CAN'T BELIEVE i forgot the classics that are the POLICE ACADEMY movies, well, the first three. 2 and 3 are probably my favourites cos of ZED. He's great as a bad guy in the 2nd and more funny as a good guy in the 3rd.

ZED: "What's your name?"
MAHONEY: "Jughead."
ZED: "Jughead?! My mothers' name was Jughead!
MAHONEY: "Oh, well i was thinking of changing it!"
ZED: "NO DON'T. It's a good american name!"

Monty Python' Life of Brian( I hae a good friend called....Biggus...Dickus...)
Pulp Fiction (dark humour at its best)
Flirting with Disaster( dark humour at its second best)
Bowfinger(Steve Martin back on form)

!MorganOnyx!

I loved Bowfinger for one reason - that stuff happened to me. My friends and I were shooting sketches for our public access show, and this guy who was in one of the skits got mad at me and refused to act anymore; Even though I needed just one more shot of him doing nothing in particular. What did I do? I showed up at his work (GNC-THE MALL) with a video camera and filmed him while he was working to finish up the story. The night that the episode aired, he called my place and was talking about legal stuff, and was really frustrated sounding. This was actually a few months before Bowfinger even came out. So, when I say it I was "like whoa!"

Bowfinger is not one of my favorites, though. The Big Lebowski! Fear and Loathing! Airplane!! I'm Gonna Get You Sucka! Waiting for Guffman! Bottle Rocket! Austin Powers! White Men Can't Jump! Young Frankenstein! The Meaning of Life!

I LOVED BOWFINGER!

I didn't even want to see it but a friend of mine rented it so I watched it. I laughed my ass off, Heather Graham is awesome... Bowfinger proved me wrong and I now own it...
It was a fun and funny movie with an original idea, I couldn't have been more wrong, it was hilarious...
