Naked Gun 1-3
Airplane 1 and 2
Fatal Instinct
Hot Fuzz
The Other Guys
Also came here to say Hot Fuzz! Itβs truly a masterclass in comedy.
Airplane. Young Frankenstein. Emperors New Groove. Paper moon.
The Emperorβs New Groove is, IMHO, the funniest film Disney has ever made. Most of the films from the Disney revival era are basically musicals with comic relief, but TENG is pure Looney Tunes. It has a great cast and itβs laugh-out-loud funny from beginning to end.
It is such a great movie. Lighthearted, but with a good moral message. So many moments that reference pop culture at the time, but in a timeless way. Just all around great writing and great voice actors. I remember laughing so hard as a kid (and from there on) when Yzma turned into a kitten. So unexpectedly delightful. The movie had lots of those moments.
I didnβt really laugh when Yzma turned into a kitten but the best joke for me was bats
My favorite part that I didnβt notice until so many rewatches later was when Yzma pours the poison drink that Kronk messed up into a plant pot and moments later it turns into a llama lmao
Oh hey, I just watched Paper Moon the other day! What a fun movie.
The Gods Must Be Crazy. There are legitimate critiques of its treatment of race since it takes place in apartheid Namibia and South Africa, but everyone in the movie seems to be having a great time and the physical comedy is top notch

Oh weee!
This is Wimp Lo. He is an idiot. We have purposely trained him wrong. As a joke!
THATβS A LOT OF NUTS!
Face to foot style, howβd like it?
Anything by Mel Brooks
The Princess Bride, and National Lampoonβs Christmas Vacation. Both have so many great lines they still crack me up every time!
Hot Rod, Step Brothers, and Tropic Thunder are a few. I love Tucker & Dale vs Evil too
Oh man, Hot Rod! Probably among the times Iβve laughed the hardest.
Pop Star is really good if you havenβt seen it.
Holy Grail. Animal House.
The life of brian
What We Do In The Shadows
Tucker and Dale VS Evil
Are the two that make me laugh no matter what.
Shoot Em Up too, but for different reasons.
+1 for Tucker and daie vs evil. What a great movie
National lampoons vacation and Christmas vacation, & Planes, Trains, and Automobiles.
Hmm, on top of my head I find these very very re-watchable, but there are so many more.
Youβll probably enjoy top secret! in that case.
The naked gun movies are based on a series called βpolice squadβ. There are so many gems going on in the background that youβll notice new things rewatching it. Itβs also with Leslie Nielson.
Definitely check it out if you havenβt :).
Who are you and how did you get in here?
Iβm a locksmith, and Iβm a locksmith.
I never did understand the broad and passionate love people have for The Big Lebowski. I just didnβt get it. Itβs one of those wierd things I seem to be out of sync with for no reason I understand. Like when you show a good friend Firefly, and they donβt like it, and you start to question their moral character.
Airplane! is definitely top of my list. Such a perfect cast. We watched it again earlier this year; I think itβd be a hard movie to make today.
Monty Python Search for the Holy Grail.
