Annie Hall is the first modern Romantic comedy. All subsequent such films imitate it in some ways.

“Bananas” and “Take the Money and Run” were very funny Woody Allen movies. Bananas, for the Howard Cosell cameos alone.

Agreed. But it’s more RomCom, than Comedy. It’s a good flick, I just think film snobs obsess about it way to much, and because of that, too many RomComs are basicially boring cut and pastes of Annie Hall.

And must add Used Cars, Blues Brothers, Naked Gun, and Mafia! to my list. Forgot those.
