5. Caddyshack
Starring Bill Murray, Rodney Dangerfield, and Chevy Chase, this is truly a comedy classic. If for no other reason, you have to watch this movie so you can catch the many references made to the movie in pop culture. Of course, the fact that it is extremely funny is a good reason to watch it as well!
4. Tootsie
This movie brook barriers, with its star Dustin Hoffman dressing up as a woman throughout the film. Yet, no one batted an eye at the sexual ambiguity. This is a classic comedy that should be seen by anyone that considers himself to be a comedy movie buff.
3. Park: Bigger, Longer, and Uncut
Otherwise known as The South Park movie, this film managed to take a television cartoon show to new heights. Although the movie is undeniably vulgar, it is quite funny and actually won numerous awards.
2. National Lampoon’s Vacation
The first in a series of “Vacation” movies, this original follows Clark Griswold and his family as they embark upon a cross-country road trip. This is truly a classic that should be in any comedy lover’s movie cabinet.
1. National Lampoon’s Animal House
This cult classic, which is generally referred to as simply Animal House, stars John Belushi in his prime. This movie follows a group of fraternity brothers and shows how men would secretly be if women weren’t around to keep them in check.
Bean’s Holiday and Miss Congeniality are my fave.
I will use this list, definitely
I’m happy to see that you have all my favourite comedies on this list….from the classics (Police Academy,Bad Boys, Roxanne)…to the new age comedies(Ice Age). But I’m VERY disappointed that you don’t have MADAGASCAR….it’s one of the funniest movies ever made!!!
Nice List!
I like that you included a lot of Mel Brooks films, but my favorites from him are not on there. “Young Frankenstein,” and “Robin Hood: Men in Tights,” I’d also add “Mrs. Doubtfire,” and possibly , “Rat Race.” Thanks for giving Monty Python due credit as well.
Happy to see Superbad on this list!! I am McLovin’!!
You have to add some ben stiller movie’s in there like meet the parents, meet the fockers, heartbreak kid & much more.
What about Young Frankenstein, American Graffiti, Mrs. Doubtfire, It’s a Mad Mad Mad Mad World, My Big Fat Greek Wedding?
Oh My Big Fat Greek Wedding was hilarious! :D
2 words.. wedding + crashers.
I agree, Zac. Any comedy with Owen is funny.
Lost some credibility with the Wild Hogs pick.
