Hello!
I recently saw every movie starring Steve Carrell, and most of them are hilarious. So I am now looking for other comedy movies to see.
When I look for movies to see, I usually find a actor or actress I like on Wikipedia. I then find the movies where they have a important role, and watch it. But now I kind of ran out of ideas. I've seen Steve Carrell's movies, Lindsay Lohan's movies, and quite a lot of Jim Carrey's movies.
I think I'll go see "Hangover", and maybe check out some Ashton Kutcher movies too.
But, my question is simple. What is the funniest movie you have ever seen?

I like comedy in general. It is my favorite genre of movies. But my top three favorite comedies are: Robin Hood: Men In Tights (a Mel Brooks film), The Princess Bride, and Office Space.
Those three movies make me laugh every single time. I do like some of Jim Carrey's stuff. I like Monty Python stuff, and as far as stand-up comedy goes, no one beats the late George Carlin for me. He had the driest, most sarcastic sense of humor.
I can't think of any recent movies that were really funny. I don't go to the movies much anymore, so I can't speak for any from the 21st Century, LOL.

Office Space was hilarious! I watched it on a 8 hours long train trip :)

Yeah, I have seen "Night at the Museum". I haven't seen "Over the Hedge" and "Happy Feet" yet, but I might do it later. They seem kind of childish, not sure if I would think it's funny.
I've seen all three "Pirates of the Caribbean" movies :)

I like early Adam Sandler such as The Wedding Singer, but don't really enjoy that much of his recent stuff as it all seems a bit repetitive. I also like the comdeies featuring Seth Rogen especially "Knocked Up" and "The 40 Year Old Virgin".
I've seen a few of Ashton Kutcher's movies and to be honest I wasn't that impressed.

I loved "The 40 Year Old Virgin"! One of the best movies I have ever seen! I usually don't watch movies more than one time, but I've watched T4YOV 3 times.

The funniest one in recent years has got to be 'My big fat Greek Wedding' which was really hilarious and very typical of the Greek lifestyle. I would recommend the film highly. For the funniest ever though it has to be some of the old black and whites with Jack Lemmon. ' Some like it Hot' is fantastic and probably the funniest film ever made. Don't dismiss it because it is old.

I've seen "My Big Fat Greek Wedding". I liked it. I think I'll check out "Some Like it Hot" too.

I'd have to say Dogma, primarily because I have a sickened humor about the amount of war/damage done throughout time in the name of religion, perception, and how easily things can be twisted as they are passed down through the generations.

I love Jay and Silent Bob movies! I had forgotten about them! Silent Bob (I don't recall his real name) is really talented at making creative films. I loved Clerks and Mallrats also, but Dogma was definitely a good one. Good call!

Hi JB,
I love cartoons, Shrek and Ice age is the funniest movie I ever seen

I like some cartoons too, like Shrek and Ice Age. But, if they are only aimed at young children, like Winnie the Pooh, it's not that funny.

I thought You Don't Mess With the Zohan was quite funny. It wasn't racist at all, mainly some small fights between the Israeli and the Pakistani people about who had the best food and so on.

Oh, I don't really like spoof movies. One of the worst movies I have ever seen is Superhero Movie. Practically a bad version of Spiderman. I'll check out Dance Flick.

Im not really a fan for comedy but i watch them too when there nothing else available. Im into love story, adventure and sci-fi.
But the one movie where we kept laughing all through out the movie was Dwayne Johnson's movie titled Race to Witch Mountain. That we are very noisy laughing at the theater that we always get a pssst from the other moviegoer..i mean, what can i do, its really funny. in fact some foreigner who are watching are laughing with us.

I dunno but whenever I see Rowan Atkinson (a.k.a. Mr. Bean) I couldn't help myself but laugh. Even without much of dialogues and just seein his antics would make me laugh out loud.
