Re: The Movie Forums Top 100 Comedies Countdown

Dr. Strangelove was my #1, and all-time favourite, and one of those early movies that got me interested cinema (and now I'm here on a movie forum). Brilliant, hilarious, and terrifying at the same...

I didn't have Young Frankenstein or Airplane! on my list but they are both very funny. They needed a rewatch and that didn't happen. Oh well. Maybe next Mofo Comedy Countdown.

Re: The Movie Forums Top 100 Comedies Countdown

I didn't have Monty Python and the Holy Grail on my list but it's a great film, comedy, and absolutely get why it's in the top 5. Life of Brian is better but hey it's all good - no tears here. Enjoy...

It's all coming together quite well, yes it is. All of Harry Lime's movies are going to make it! He has become one with Mofo, so much so that he now refers himself in the third person. Groundhog Day...

I didn't have any in the 101-120- range. Surprised some films considered locks didn't even place there. Anyway, my predictions:

1. Dr. Strangelove
2. The Big Lebowski
3. Young Frankenstein

Two great films that have a lot in common but most people aren't aware of these connections and similarities. And I won't say anymore! Neither made my list.

Another from my list. Bringing Up Baby is madness and I had to include it. I like Raising Arizona but it's always been lower Coens for me. I'm not as big a fan as some others are here.

Re: The Movie Forums Top 100 Comedies Countdown

A pair of great comedies. Obvious entries on any comedy list. I didn't have either on mine but The Jerk would have made a top 50 and Caddyshack has Bill Murray doing his thing

I see some of you...
