“Best scene ever, ever is when Arnold Stang and Marvin Kaplan get their gas station destroyed by Jonathan Winters in Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World.”
That was truly one of the greatest comedy scenes of all time!

A seriously funny movie is “Uncover Brother” a parody of the Black Culture.
Everyone needs to see this at least two times, both times you will laugh your head off!

SpaceBalls is the only Mel Brroks movie on the list? WTF??
Young Frankenstein, Blazing Saddles and The Producers were each better than that one.
The list is garbage

Planes, Trains & Automobiles
Funniest movie I think I’ve ever seen.
Animal House, even though I’ve seen it close to a hundred times, is still hilarious. Like two other posters on this thread, I, too, was pledging at the time and our house was fairly close to that.

Agree with all you said, except High Anxiety. Might have to give that on another chance.
