Airplane. Young Frankenstein. Emperors New Groove. Paper moon.

The Emperor's 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 it's 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.

Naked Gun 1-3

Airplane 1 and 2

Fatal Instinct

Hot Fuzz

The Other Guys

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago

Also came here to say Hot Fuzz! It's truly a masterclass in comedy.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 1 year ago

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

Hot Rod, Step Brothers, and Tropic Thunder are a few. I love Tucker & Dale vs Evil too

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Oh man, Hot Rod! Probably among the times I've laughed the hardest.

Hmm, on top of my head I find these very very re-watchable, but there are so many more.

  • Some Like it Hot
  • Airplane!
  • The Naked Gun movies.
  • Blazing Saddles
  • The Blues Brothers
  • National Lampoon's Vacation
  • Young Frankenstein
  • Robin Hood: Men in Tights
  • Planes, Trains and Automobiles
  • Happy Gilmore
  • The Big Lebowski
  • Liar Liar
[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You'll probably enjoy top secret! in that case.

The naked gun movies are based on a series called "police squad". There are so many gems going on in the background that you'll notice new things rewatching it. It's also with Leslie Nielson.

Definitely check it out if you haven't :).

Yes my very unpopular opinion is that white chicks is the funniest movie ever made. So many hilarious scenes. Also, Friday and Superbad always keep me in stitches.

Tenacious D in The Pick of Destiny will have me dying every time, stoned or not. Though most likely baked out of my fucking mind, because that's how it's meant to be watched.

Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back will always hold a special place to me as one of Kevin Smith's funniest, but that's heavily a nostalgic one for me. I remember being one of 8 people in the local theater the day it opened, my dad pulled me out of school to go see it. Even just seeing the DVD menu makes me grin like a loon.

The Return of the Pink Panther

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)
  • The Producers (1967 Version.). Every scene with Zero Mostel and Gene Wilder is unhinged brilliance, and the supportig cast is equally good.
  • Arsenic and Old Lace: I know it's a high school drama club staple, but the original film starring Cary Grant is still hilariou. And the plot was way ahead of its time.
  • Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery
