I hope romantic comedies count...because I LOVE

How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days.

Matthew is hot, and Kate is HILARIOUS. She does so many things to him that some of my friends have done/do, and it's all so real that it's funny.
"Love Fern", "Princess Sophia" and "Krull the Warrior King" bring laughter immediately.
(So I Married an Axe Murderer comes in a close second for me.)

Great question!

I have so many favs but the first one that comes to mind is National Lampoons vacation...I remember watching it over and over as a teenager, secretly giggling while my family was on vacation and wishing we were more like the Griswold's!

Cathy M said...

First off I want to say thanks so much for your goodies you do on Saturdays. I look forward to your Saturday Night Shuggy Snacks. Ok the first comedy that comes to mind is.."WHAT ABOUT BOB". Bill Murray is so funny and we had...that's right HAD a friend that was like him. Everytime we turned around there he was. Thanks for a chance at some more of your fun sweet goodies. This time I'm not going to forget my email...cmeyers@hughes.net

The funniest is "What about Bob"

My favorite is Clueless. I can watch it over and over again. I think it's really funny and actually quite witty - I love that it's the retelling of one of my favorite stories Emma.

K Hutchinson said...

I'm going to say Billy Manson, but I'm a huge Jack Black fan and love School of Rock too!

Hard to pick just one, but I would say "Galaxy Quest". For anyone who grew up on the original Star Trek, this movie is hilarious.

My favorite is "Blazing Saddles" - mainly because I watched with my prim and proper mother once and she laughed until she cried at the campfire scene where they were eating their beans!!!

My favorite comedy has got to be "American Pie" I usually laugh till I cry :-) "one time at band camp" !

I'm not much of a movie-goer anymore...I guess back to the future or the Ferris Buhler one....I told you I haven't been to the movies since high school, didn't I?? LOL

My favorite comedy would have to be the original screen version of Hairspray (by John Waters) only my favorite because I was in the movie as a dancing extra. What fun that was for a 16-year-old dancer.

I think that my favourite comedy right now (it changes) would be "Bruce Almighty"

Angel said...

Mmm... favorite comedy. It's hard to pick just one. I like 50 First Dates. I think that is the name of it...w/ Drew Barrymore and Adam Sandler! Funny.

My favorite of all time is Theres Something About Mary. (Those Farrelly brothers are something else.)
I actually saw this in the theatre and didn't think it was too funny. But once I saw it on television, I could not stop laughing. There were parts I had never noticed before each time I watched it. I would be laughing so hard, my husband would be laughing in the next room and he wasn't laughing at the movie he was laughing at me laughing.

I have many favorites, I am a movie freak, I will have to narrow it down to one, and that's a tough one for me:

1. Fun with Dick and Jane

I just love Jim Carrey, but this movie is by far his best! It's super funny throughout! I just love how anxious they get. Love it when they rob that exec and they are all dressed in black. And when he freaks out with that INDICTED JANE!! And who can forget that St...ta...tis...tics line, they made it inot a video. hahaha!!

Since it's so dang hot out I'm going with A Christmas Story. I just love this one. Of course I have a ton more faves, but we'll go with this one for now. :)

ellie said...

Let's see...I have to say, "Seems Like Old Times" with Goldie Hawn and Chevy Chase. It is lighthearted comedy...no violence, no sex, no vulgar language...great family entertainment.

lindsalita said...

This is so very cool! My fave funny movie that I laugh at every time I watch it or someone quotes it etc. {Is Zoolander} I mean 3 models dying in a gasoline fight accident!? That's comedy! Sounds pretty disturbing when I typed it, but hey I am easily amused. Thanks for this list of funny movies to watch again! My email is lindsalita@hotmail.com.

doverdi said...

My favorite comedy of all times would have to be HOW TO LOSE A GUY IN 10 DAYS. I can't believe the things that Kate does to Matthew in order to get him to drop her. I love their Your So Vain duet together. I always laugh when I watch this movie. It was definately one I had to add to my collection.
Thanks again for a chance to win.

Donna Baker said...

Not sure if this qualifies as a comedy and it may sound crude because not everyone is a fan of this type of humor but I LOVED JACKASS II, didn't care for the first but man, oh man...there were some scenes in there that had me ROFL til my throat got sore, my belly ached and I had tears rolling down my face! We even re-wound some parts more than twice because they were so funny!

Nettie said...

My all time favorite is USED CARS... Every single time I watch it I find something funny that I missed the last time. Awesome comedy.

I see I'm not alone in selecting Tootsie as one of my favorites.

I love Dustin Hoffman in anything, but he is hysterical playing Dorothy Michaels. Tootsie has so many great lines:

[Dorothy Michaels' screen test]
Rita: I'd like to make her look a little more attractive, how far can you pull back?
Cameraman: How do you feel about Cleveland?

Suzi said...

Ok, this is the 3rd time I've tried to post. With my luck, all 3 will show up eventually!!

I love Airplane. I can sit & quote from it forever. LOVE that movie!

Angie at Home said...

Oh.... "The Truth about Cats and Dogs". I love Uma Thurman's part, a ditzy blonde model who pretends to be the neighbor next door who happens to be a violin playing animal doctor who is a host on a call-in radio show. Jeanne Garofalo is that radio host. There are some classic comedic bits in this movie

Hey Happy Birthday! My favorite comedy of all time is "The Big Lebowski"....it's just so ridiculous that I never cease to find something to laugh at in the movie.

If I were to choose a recent one I'd go with Little Miss Sunshine as I haven't seen one that has struck me as that funny in many years. Even the comedies on TV are no where near as funny as they used to be. Thanks again for offering shuggy snacks:)

Robyn said...

I would have to say, gosh, there are so many, "Something About Mary".

I'll never forget the experience of watching it, in a packed theater, with so many people laughing simultaneously. My ribs hurt after that.

This is my first comment post. I hope I did this correctly. I set up a new blog for it and everything. Can you tell I love stamps...LOL

Have a great weekend.

Little One said...

Right now my favorite is Night at the Museum. My youngest DS has always said "I want gum gum". So, when we saw this movie we just could not stop laughing about the Easter Island head saying "Hey Dum Dum, me want gum gum"!!! It was totally funny since a 4 year old has been saying this way before the movie was released :D

I love Napoleon Dynomite. The first time I ever saw it I saw it twice in the same day. It just cracks me up. If it's on cable I have to watch it. Oh, and Some Like It Hot is a close second. hgrow@marykay.com

How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days
For me it is something that is true, we use to it all the time in high school. Growing up with one high scool in the town. Not to much to do. Makes me laugh cuz we did lots of crazy things like they did.

Jan Scholl said...

Mine is a really obscure film called Crossing Delancey with Amy Irving and Peter Reigert. He is a pcikle salesman that she feels is not good enough for her but her Jewish gramma-her Bubbie- is playing matchmaker big time. I love the acting, the music the whole idea of gramma's knowing more than we give them credit for. here is more info....

My favorite comedy of all time is Meet the Parents! It's just a classic, and I'm a huge Ben Stiller fan. I highly recommend it to anyone who hasn't yet seen it. Meet the Fockers is a pretty good sequel, as sequels go, but nothing can touch Meet the Parents. My email is: vanillaglitter [at] gmail [dot] com

Thanks for this giveaway!

First off, I am one of those people who never remembers the names of movies. However, the movie that made me laugh the most recently was Borat. Initially, I rented it for my husband, as I thought that it would be too over the top but in the end, I thought that it was as funny as he did.

It changes all the time but my husband I really enjoyed Tallidegi Night with Will Ferrill. 40 year old virgin was very funny also but a little racy. We haven't seen Kncked up yet but I have heard it is laugh out loud too.

I have 2 favs that I would like to share. First, Stripes has got to be one of the funniest movies of past, and second is, Overboard with Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell. They make me laugh every time I see one of them. Always seem to find something new no matter how many times I havw watched them. Great Blog! Dorothy Freber(dorntoto@charter.net)

Bewitched...even the TV show was my favorite show when I was younger (and I'd continue to watch it today!) and I also loved the movie.
