    The Funniest Film Ever Made

    ...the BBC prefers "Some Like It Hot," a movie I must have seen and appreciated a dozen times... BBC - Culture - Why Some Like It Hot is the greatest comedy ever made

    Way ahead of its time, even today, it's a stand out epic about peoples lives and how they (we) might want to live them.
    An excellent find. Thank you.

    Python films? Life of Brian?
    Red Dwarf?
    Snatch?

    I find it fascinating that humour differs from nation to nation and also that some of the old comedy that I used to like I no longer find remotely humourous.

    The film in question has been dragged up (sic) because of the recent fad for discussing/commenting on transgender stuff.

    Thought the first "Airplane" film was FAF first time I saw it.

    The same team also did "Top Secret" with Val Kilmer that was very good, but slipped under the radar a bit. Some absolute piss-yourself funny moments.

    It's still FAF the hundredth time if you spark up a spliff .

    The Naked Gun movies are also good watching when a laugh is needed, like Airplane there's gags of some description going on from start to end.

    I still watch Big Trouble in Little China, it's such a funny movie but then I watched it when I was HIGH, wish I could do that again. 555

    Young Frankenstein is another great comedy.

    Shouldn't have googled snatch on the train...looks appealing
