I know this is a fairly new movie, but I love The 40 Year Old Virgin. I haven't laughed that hard at a movie in a long time. Another classic is Dumb and Dumber. I never saw the Monty Python movies.

Oh yeah, Office Space and Dodgeball were great too!

My best friend won't watch it with me anymore cause i've seen it so many times. Rush hour 3 is gonna kill! And they've made chris tucker sign on for a fourth if they decide to make one.

Since everyone keeps saying Monty Python... please tell me why does everyone love it... I've never been able to find it funny.

As for new movies... the funniest is Wedding Crashers.

The movie I laughed the hardest at in the movie theatres... Galaxy Quest!!!

i can't explain why it's so funny to me, but i do know this. i only know people that either love it and think it's hysterical or they absolutely hate it and think it's the stupidest thing they've ever seen. i don't know anyone that thinks it's ok take it or leave it.

Monty Python combines a unique blend of wit - that dry british humor-and the bizzare.Its pretty much like Luthorsmentor said-your either into it or u arent.Take this bit from Holy Grail;

Arthur-"I am Arthur-king of the brits"
Peasent-"The brits,who r they"?
Arthur-"Us..all of us...we are brits..(peasent stares at him confused)...and i am your king"
Peasent-"Well I didnt vote for u"
Arthur-"U dont vote for king"
Peasent-"Howd u get to be king then"
Arthur-"The lady of the lake-her arm outstretched-presented me with the sword-Excalliber-thus making me king"
Peasent-"So because some watery tart gives u a sword,that makes u king"?

Monty Python's Holy Grail is by far one of my favorites...Bring out your dead..But I'm not dead yet..I love that as well as the killer bunny.

Airplane
Wrongfully Accused
Napolean Dynamite

The first time I saw Space balls I thought it was stupid jut like Naked Gun but later I watched them and found them both funny so I do think it has to do with your mood as well when you watch movies like these.

"Your arm has been cut off!"
"It's only a flesh wound!"

i love it. and spamalot is the movie exactly with some stuff thrown in to make it even funnier.

What are you going to do bleed on me?

I have to say I know it isn't a great movie but I like Van Wilder..I think it is just Ryan Reynolds and his facial expressions but when he is in a movie like this I think he is so funny

Happy Gilmore, followed by Super Troopers, followed by Billy Madison.

Super Troopers was funny..I really didn't care for Billy Madison but I did love when he called Steve Buscemi's character and apologized for being a jerk to him and he acted like he forgot about it then crossed him off the Kill list he had...that was hysterical.

I have to say that it is really hard for me to find a "comedy" that I really like. Most of the recent ones just don't do anything for me. Watch "Wedding Crashers" last night and only laughed once. Can't say it did anything for me.

Let's see. I have a few comedy favorites that have not made this list. If you haven't seen them you should check them out.

1. A Fished Called Wanda---ROTF funny
2. Ferris Bueller's Day Off--Matthew Broderick is great
3. Young Frankenstein--Classic
4. All of Me (Steve Martin and Lily Tomlin) Silly but very funny
5. Bull Durham
6. Risky Business
