apocalypsosOkay, for some ungodly reason I'm watching the 100 Funniest Movies list, and it's still pissing me off.
So name me your favorite funny movies. Not the best comedies, but the movies that make you laugh hysterically every time you see them.
My favorites?
The Princess Bride, which is one of my three favorite movies of all time, if we're counting the Terminator series and the "Irwin Allen's Attempt to Destroy The Planet in the '70s In Three Crappy Disaster Movies" trio of death and destruction as one movie each.
Arthur, because that movie keeps me laughing for two straight hours without fail.
A Fish Called Wanda, because Kevin Kline in that movie is the best thing on the planet after maple walnut ice cream.
Airplane!, because that's my dad's influence at work.
Monty Python and the Holy Grail, because ... well, REALLY.
And an honorable mention to the scene in While You Were Sleeping where the paperboy goes to throw the newspaper from the icy sidewalk and his bike goes flying out from under him, if only because that scene never fails to KILL ME DEAD.

Undercover Blues:
Jane Blue: You brought our baby into a knife fight?
Jeff Blue: It was a fair fight. Two of them, two of us...
Undercover Brother:
Undercover Brother: Are you telling me there really is a Man'?
Conspiracy Brother: What do you think? Things don't just happen by accident! Sometimes people - mostly *white* people - make things happen!
Undercover Brother: So the conspiracies we've believed for all these years are true? The NBA really did institute the three point shot to give white boys a chance?
Conspiracy Brother: Of course!
Undercover Brother: Then the entertainment industry really *is* out to get Spike Lee?
Conspiracy Brother: Come on man! Even Cher's won an Oscar! Cher!
Undercover Brother: Then O.J. really didn't do it?
