I never liked the wedding singer, i think Happy Gilmore and Billy Madison was much much better.

[Apollo]

i don't consider Dr.Strangelove a comedy, i only wacthed half of it and the half i watched didn't come off as a comedy at all, it seemed more as a drama... i don't understand how people thought it was funny to be considered a comedy. all i saw was drama.

Blazing saddles
Spaceballs

[Blackman]

Coming to America
Anchorman
Harold and Kumar
Tropic Thunder
Superbad
Happy Gilmore

all I can think of right now

[RoboAmish]

Im not a fan of comedies in the film medium, while they're basically the only things I watch on tv. I guess I just have a weird sense of humour, I guess...

I don't know if I can think of 15 comedies I enjoyed, let alone rank them. Here's a list of ones I do rate highly

Anchorman
Borat
In Bruges (black comedy is comedy nonetheless and is more my thing)
Burn After Reading
Ghostbusters
Life Of Brian
Team America: World Police

I can't really think of anymore right now. I wish I could put Gran Torino in there 9joking, of course)

Then there's my number one choice for best comedy film and the only comedy that could crack my top ten movies list- South Park: Bigger, Longer and Uncut

[tyler-durden]

I'm still working on my list, up to about Ten, really thinking about it and my list isn't in any kind of order

[Episode29]

In no order:

Duck Soup
Bringing Up Baby
Wayne's World
Naked Gun
Night At The Opera
Ghostbusters
Dumb & Dumber
Clerks
Shot In The Dark
Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery
40-Year-Old Virgin
Army Of Darkness
Office Space
Fish Called Wanda
Big Lebowski

*Bonus: Billy Madison.

[adhokk7]

In Bruges (black comedy is comedy nonetheless and is more my thing)


What a vastly underrated movie. This is the first movie in which I've actually like Colin Farrell as an actor. I don't know that it's one of the 15 greatest comedies ever made, but it's very solid.
