E! Just did their list of the 20 funniest movies ever made, I had some objections. Here's their list and some of my comments on them... What do you think?

20. Meet the Parents (DeNiro made this movie, but Ben Stiller is just annoying)
19. Young Frankenstein (Top 10, Gene Wilder is subtle yet perfect in his role, and Peter Boyle was great as the monster)
18. Pee Wee's Big Adventure (Not top 20, worth a few chuckles, but that's it)
17. Waiting for Guffman
16. Lost in America
15. Happy Gilmore (Not even Sandler's best, top 100 maybe...)
14. The Jerk (Maven was Steve Martin's greatest part)
13. Dumb & Dumber (Hysterical, but Jim Carrey has made funnier, took a few viewings to really enjoy)
12. Bananas
11. Monty Python & The Holy Grail (Hands down, should be #1... you find new things to laugh at every time you see it)
10. The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad (Pre-murder OJ alone makes this a classic. Should never have made 2 sequels!)
9. This is Spinal Tap
8. National Lampoon's Animal House (#2... so many classic lines... John Belushi at his best)
7. Beverly Hills Cop (Funny, but not top 20 material)
6. Caddyshack (Top 5, the best movie Chevy Chase ever did, but every cast member has their moments)
5. Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery (Top 20, but probably not top 5 unless you're a huge Bond fan)
4. Blazing Saddles (Mel Brook's greatest cinematic achievement!)
3. There's Something About Mary (Hysterical in its sickness, but should be lower)
2. National Lampoon's Vacation (Top 20, but definitely not #2)
1. Airplane (Top 5 material, Leslie Nielson's delivery is classic)

Missing... Spaceballs, The Blues Brothers, Ace Ventura, Stripes, Ghostbusters, Dr. Strangelove


I believe in the Faith... that can save me.
I believe in the hope and I pray...
That someday it may raise me... above these badlands

I've never even heard of these. Caddyshack is my number one. And where's Ford Fairlane?

edit: There's so many more worth mention too like History of the World Part 1, Revenge of the Nerds, Blazing Saddles, Clerks, Private Parts. That's all I can think of for now.

I am immediately challening the placement of Meet the Parents, Beverly HIlls Cop, Powers, Pee Wee, and Mary. Stripes shouldn't be on the list because of the second half.

Gilmore, though Madison was funnier, I have to agree that these are som of the funniest fucking movies I've ever seen.

However, here's one of my favorite comedies that are hardly placed on any lists but should be- A FISH CALLED WANDA. Also missing- The Producers. Holy Grail definitely should be on it but I think the other Python films each were superior to half the films on the list in their own right, watch Life of Brian after reading the New Testament and you'll appreciate it more than you ever thought you would.

20. Meet the Parents - would have been much funnier if the PREVIEWS hadn't shown all the best scenes
19. Young Frankenstein - definitely top 10
18. Pee Wee's Big Adventure - What the fuck?!?!
17. Waiting for Guffman - Super Gay
16. Lost in America - Never heard of it
15. Happy Gilmore - Can't argue this one
14. The Jerk - Only seen parts of it
13. Dumb & Dumber - Much funnier after seeing it a few times
12. Bananas - never seen it
11. Monty Python & The Holy Grail - never seen it
10. The Naked Gun - No arguments
9. This is Spinal Tap - never seen it
8. National Lampoon's Animal House - should be higher(lower number, whatever..)
7. Beverly Hills Cop - More of an action-adventure than comedy
6. Caddyshack - Need to see it again, only time I saw it was when I was like 12
5. Austin Powers - can't complain
4. Blazing Saddles - no complaints
3. There's Something About Mary - should be in the 15-20 range
2. National Lampoon's Vacation - Chevy Chase has never been funny, not even in this
1. Airplane - Yup

Where is:

Billy Madison
Orgazmo (too cult-ish, I guess)
UHF (ditto)
Clerks
Planes, Trains, & Automobiles
Ferris Bueller's Day Off
Kingpin

that has to be the most rediculuous list that I have ever read. Monty Python and the Holy Grail not even top 5!! While Airplane and Something about Mary is?? That's a FuBARed list.

and their should be more Mel Brooks movies in the list as well.



I use geocities and all I got was this lousy red x

If there were no rewards to reap,
No loving embrace to see me through
This tedious path I've chosen here,
I certainly would've walked away by now.
Gonna wait it out..

Norm McDonald- that reminds me, where's Dirty Work on the list? I still say that DW might be funnier than any Sandler starrer. Everyone's mentioned correctly the Smith films. Wayne's World is funnier than Powers. And what about some of the Coen films like The Big Lebowski.

This is the worst assortment of movies I have ever seen EVER. If Office Space and Road Trip weren't in there I would think this list was a worst of. Also Life of Brian was OK, biggus dickus, but it has no place in a top twenty.

What's funny are shows and magazines that are always creating these purely subjective lists. There are so many things wrong with it that I can't even begin.
