You see the problem is I have 8 bosses all telling me the same thing. I basically work really 15 minutes in a week.

“It’s a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World”. Yes, this is one that I vote for. I rewatched it again a couple of months ago. Too funny.

These threads are pretty much useless.

The reason is here are a lot of Freepers who haven’t laughed since the stone age. They are simply so serious, nothing registers.

The next reason is that this includes movies made AFTER 1970. Again, a lot of Freepers haven’t set foot in a theater since the wheel was invented.

The third, and probably most important...people find different things funny. MY version of funny probably different than yours. I respect that. I would never foist my sense of humor on anyone.

If these lists could inspire “conversation” about the silly things in life, that would be fun. But instead they inspire posts that sound like my cranky old uncles sitting at the end of the bar in the local Vets club in 1982.

So, enjoy what you enjoy. If there are movies on this list that you haven’t seen...give them a watch some day instead of sitting through the daily news. I have to imagine that a bad funny movie is better than the news.

Surprised Trading Places (1983) was not on this list.

For me the funniest part of Blazing Saddles is at the end when the fight spills into the other production sets. I die laughing at the craziness of Mel Brooks thinking up that idea.

I agree with 1, but a close #2 is Blazing Saddles, but today’s PC culture has probably cancelled it.

Any of Peter Seller’s ‘Pink Panther’ movies are also hilarious.

Hollywood Shuffle, especially the “Black Acting School” and “Sneaking Into The Movies” bits.

“He hit Bunny! Come on girls!”

Dom DeLuise directing the dance number “The French Mistake.”

You laugh so hard you are crying.
