What's your favorite movie to make you laugh?
Right now I must go with 'Three Amigos'. This is after I saw 'Life Of Brian' and 'Holy Grail' way too many times. I still love that scene where Chevy and Steve 'sing' Martin to sleep! One funny movie. What's yours?

2. Here is mine
I would have to say

Dogma
Life of Brian
Holy Grail
Duck Soup
Night at the Opera

off the top of my head
Its tough because I can't decide which one makes me laugh the hardest
I also noticed something they are all satires.

13. Yeah, I got to admit that 'Spinal Tap' is one of the funnest movies ever.
Remember when the the second guitar couldn't get out of his 'pod'? Man, that was funny! And the Stonehenge thing was hilarious.

12. Napoleon Dynamite
Oooh, just love it! The movie is bursting at the seams with hilarity. I love these kinds of muted comedies.

Just watched Dodgeball over the weekend -- terrible, terrible, terrible movie.

15. Office Space
Along with Zoolander. Anything with Owen Wilson will have me cracking up in no time. He just kills me.

More recently, Shaun of the Dead forced me to avert my eyes from the blaring hilariousness.

18. Tommy Boy
Specifically the scene at the gas station, where Tommy breaks the driver's side car door. And then later when they're driving and the hood comes up.
"Richard, do I have a mark on my face?"

It crackes me up everytime I see that movie.
