Greatest comedy (film) of all time

[BigBallinStalin]

I second Love and Death, but Sleeper was funnier.

[The Bison King]

I'm just going to have to agree with the original assertion of Dr. Stranglove.

My honorable mentions would be:

Raising Arizona and Pee Wee's Big Adventure

Second Lebowski.

YES

[QoH]

Let's nominate Anchorman, shall we?

And I'll second the Blues Brothers.

[Janomike]

I vote for "There’s Something About Mary", awesome film with the legendary hair scene

Would second happy gilmore if someone votes for it

[heavycola]

I second Love and Death, but Sleeper was funnier.

For laffs though, woody's best is Bullets over Broadway. Not his greatest movie by a long stretch but his funniest, in my humble motherfucking opinion

[gannable]

id rather watch a bill murray, rodney dangerfield, or eddie murphy movie than anything on the original poster's list.

Stripes, Meatballs, Caddyshack, Ghostbusters, What about Bob, Groundhog's Day, Easy Money, Back to School, Beverly's Hills Cops I and II, Trading Places, 48 hours,

and I like Dumb and Dumber

any of the above are far funnier than the original list

[warmonger1981]

run ronnie run is great . not very well known though .

[maxfaraday]

If I have to choose in the op's list I nominate Doctor Strangelove.

But I think M*A*S*H is better.

[Army of GOD]

Alright, got 10 nominations; thus, commence the voting.

I voted for Strangelove, Holy Grail and Lebowski, though, if it were up to me, I'd replace Lebowski with either Caddyshack, the Naked Gun or Austin Powers.

related, is there a movie version of Catch 22 ?

nvm i find one, not gonna watch it tho, it surely can't be as good as the book.

yea, I stopped watching it within the first like 20 minutes. It was pretty awful (compared to the book, that is).
