Hey you guys. Liar Liar, with Jim Carey, is on ABC tonight. A very funny movie, to help take minds off all the bad news around.

I posted something here and it has totally disappeared! I can't imagine that it got moderated. Maybe I have it confused with another thread. Anyway, a movie that never fails to make me laugh:

MY COUSIN VINNY!

I agree with Fab, Best in Show, is one of the best dark comedies ever...

My all time favs are:

When Harry Met Sally
There's Something About Mary
My Cousin Vinny
Blazing Saddles
and of course
Eric the Viking

I did not read all the way to the beginning of this thread, so if it is mentioned-my apologies.

Planes, Trains and Automobiles was one of the funniest movies that I have ever seen. (Steve Martin) Its an older movie, but I still watch it about once a year, and I still LOL.

Also, the Chevy Chase Vacations (any of them) are great.

In "History of the World-Part One" where Count de Money calls for the "pissboy", relieves himself in the bucket, then tosses the tip in the bucket.

When my nephew first started working as a kid and worked in fast food restaurants and other minimum-wage jobs, he called them "pissboy jobs." This movie is not only funny, a prase was coined that we still use in our family.

Or was it the king who called for the pissboy? Does anyone remember the details?

Some Like it Hot
Roxanne
Groundhog Day
A Night At the Opera (just for the stateroom scene and a few other bits)
Dogma
What's Up, Doc
Singin' in the Rain
The Great Race (for the pie fight)
The Princess Bride

I haven't seen some of these in years...maybe they're not as funny as I remember them to be.

Bringing Up Baby
Topper
Holiday
The Philadelphia Story
Arsenic and Old Lace
Operation Petticoat

Just about all of the old screwball comedies from the 40s, and most Cary Grant movies

I have to add two movies here. One is ~Love Stinks~ with French Stewart (Third Rock from the Sun) I can't remember the name of his leading lady, but she's married to a football player, I think. Its a madcap comedy about their disfuntional relationship. A little racey, but funny.

The other one is: Fools Rush In with Matthew Perry and Selma Hyack. Its a romatic comedy that made me giggle and sigh at the same time. Very cute.

Both movies are playing on HBO and premium channels right now.

I loved Jim Carrey as the Riddler in Batman2. I also liked The Cable Guy and don't understand why it didn't do better.
He is coming out with a new movie this spring called Bruce Almighty, it looks hilarious.
I don't like him when he tries to do serious. I think he is a better entertainer than an actor, if that makes any sense.

Rush Hour 2 with Jackie Chan and that fool, Chris Tucker....all Chris has to do is stand there and I laugh my ass off.

Web, I'm the opposite on Jim Carrey....like Robin Williams, I think he is an amazing SERIOUS actor and should stop with the funny movies, too over the top.

My friends think I'm crazy (maybe I am! LOL) but "Dumb and Dumber" is one of my favorite comedies. My other favorites are:

-Airplane
-The Birdcage
-Naked Gun
-Rush Hour 2

Sweetbabygirl, I agree with you about Chris Tucker. Funny and talented!
