Serious contenders, IMO:

American Splendor
Baseketball
Throw Momma From the Train
Best in Show
Drop Dead Gorgeous
Clerks/Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back

Prolly a lot I overlooked, but these are what I first thought of.

OK, surely this is a joke.
American Splendor?
There was nothing funny about that movie at all. It made me want to shoot myself in the head.

Can't totally discount your opinion though since you included Best in Show. Hilarious movie.

[UncleWai]

Really funny
Dumb and dumber
Deuce Bigalow
Happy Gilmore

Tediously funny
Big Trouble in Little china town
RoboCop 3
Tremors


I think i have the best list.

 

[jinduy]

waterboy!

 

[Antoneo]

Anyone else find Adam Sandler and Tom Greene not even remotely funny? I can't understand it since most of their humour seems to come from sadism or stupidity.

Here's some movies I liked:

Modern Times
Some Like It Hot
Rush Hour 1 and 2

 

[CyrusT]

A few more older ones.

Pink Panther series
Casino Royale
Dr. Strangelove

(Peter Sellers)

What?! Come on! What about the nerd guy? The way he talked? Then you find out that it's not even a parody cuz the real-life guy talks that way? That was frickin' hilarious!

 

[zmatrix]

You must be pretty young to not know Blazing Saddles. It's a Mel Brook's western starring Gene Wilder (I don't know who plays the black sheriff as Wilder's partner). Of all of Brook's film this is second only to Spaceballs.

OK, I'll admit I laughed a few times and found some parts humorous. But come on. Top 10 comedies of all time????????? It's not a comedy. It's a real life story of a guy who is a big time loser and always depressed about his life.

 

[cronos]
