Booze and Pirate songs always work for me. Grab some liquor and sing with me!

That gay cowboy movie...that should be a good laugh.

Supertroopers, easily.

That gay cowboy movie...that should be a good laugh.

Which one? There are hundreds.

The Naked Gun
The Naked Gun 2 1/2
The Naked Gun 33 1/3
Armageddon (why do people look at me funny when I call this a comedy?)

what kind of comedy do you usually go for?

stupid-funny could be Dumb & Dumber
sci-fi funny could be spaceballs
general all-round hilarious funny would be family guy

too tired to really think now :(

Which one? There are hundreds.
Rustler's Rhapsody

"wow... you shot him in the head..."
"Yeah... I missed his hand..."

Baseketball!

Liasia']Supertroopers, easily.
Is that like Statetroopers?

Officespace and yep the Naked guns kick arse.

Do not listen to any of these people. Rent Dirty Work with Norm Mcdonald. You will love life again.

I can't really reccomend what is funny to you, what kind of sense of humor do you have?

I reccomend: "Dirty Rotten Scoundrels", Any Monty Python, but "Monty Python and the Holy Grail" is superb, "Spaceballs", "Son of Frankenstein", "Dracula: Dead and Loving it!" (excellent movie "take the cross..."), or a good "Seinfeld" episode never fails to cheer me up. Losers are fun to watch!

As a final note, "Road to Morroco", or "Road to Utopia" are great movies, along with the that mansion scene (with the tea spilling on the lap) in "Fancy Pants".

Discription: "Dirty Rotten Scoundrels" stars Michael Kane, and Steve Martin as rival Con Artists, who are based in Europe. Steve plays a low-class idiot, while Mike is the refined one. They place a bet, teh one who loses has to leave europe. The first man to Con $50,000 dollars from a specific target. It has a twist at the end.

Discription: "Monty Python and the Holy Grail" King Aurtur...his knights...a search for the Holy Grail...unbeleivably funny, the very first scene gives you the idea, I was laughing ever since it, to the end of the movie!

Description: The Mell Brooks movies: all funny, "Spaceballs" is a spoof on "Star Wars", and the others describe themselves.

Description: "Seinfeld", the series about nothing! Elaine breaks-up with her boyfreind over use of the ! Mark in writing. Just..nothing, and funny!

Descritption: All the rest are Bob Hope movies.

Here we are...

Need some more info - what kind of movies do you usually go for?

Oh, and Blues Brothers :)

A good choice - if you like Norm. ;)

I think we all know THE Gay Cowboy movie.

son of Frankenstein or "Young Frankenstein"?

oh and if you can find it, the Pirate Movie. :D

I second Super Troopers. First twernty minutes is awesome, especially if you've actually lived in Vermont.

Is that like Statetroopers?
:confused: i think it has state troopers in it. If not, then halfbaked.
'Blue team go! Red team go!'

I second Super Troopers. First twernty minutes is awesome, especially if you've actually lived in Vermont.
The snosberries taste like snosberries!

See if you can find some of Eddie Izzard's standup stuff?

The British comedy shows "Coupling", "Red Dwarf" or "Blackadder"?

Zoolander was quite amusing... well, it amused me.

"The Princess Bride"?

If you're still reading, you've waited too long.

One more Mel Brooks movie that's pretty good.

Robin Hood -- Men in Tights.

Oh, and Blues Brothers :)
yes!! :D


and btw smunkee, i'm sure if glitzi wasn't asleep she'd be sending you a ton of fluffles right now... so i'll have to do it in her stead :fluffle: :fluffle: :fluffle: :fluffle: :fluffle: :) (hope things get better soon :) )

ME, MYSELF AND IRENE
It's got a midget with nunchuckas in and everything. Jim Carry at his best!
:D

son of Frankenstein or "Young Frankenstein"?

oh and if you can find it, the Pirate Movie. :D

Yay! The Pirate Movie!

An Irish tenor, no less... we could USE an Irish tenor...

'Blue team go! Red team go!'
Perhaps they are the same movie under different names or i got it wrong-most probably the latter.
Halfbaked wasn't funny, i didn't get it at all.

Blues Brothers rules!

"We're on a mission from God"
:p

Cabin Boy. It's a certain kind of funny, though.

Don't know, but I have to say thanks to Smunkee, for reminding me that I had to take the DVDs back tonight. :D

Yay! The Pirate Movie!

An Irish tenor, no less... we could USE an Irish tenor...
"Soprano... even better..."

"The Princess Bride"?
My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die.


Well, it had to be said. *shrug*

A random assortment of movies that make me giggle uncontrollably:

- "This Is Spinal Tap" (or anything else by Christopher Guest)
- The original "The Producers," with Zero Mostel and Gene Wilder
- "A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum," also with Zero Mostel and Gene Wilder (those two together = comedic gold)
- "Wallace and Gromit," either the collected shorts or "Curse of the Were-Rabbit"
- Any episode of Mystery Science Theatre 3000. "Manos, the Hands of Fate" is particularly amazing.

Good luck finding a cheer-up movie! :)

Saving Grace (Made in 2000). It's about an older British woman whose husband leaves her with tons of debt after he dies, so she takes up growing marijuana and.. well, I won't ruin the ending for you.

My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die.


Well, it had to be said. *shrug*

Inconceivable!

Any of the Python Movies!

Halfbaked wasn't funny, i didn't get it at all.
How can you not get wesley pipes and billy bong thornton? Smoke some shit dude.

Smunk!

Well it's not a movie but I find Duke Ellington and Ella Fitzgerald and the Côte d'Azur Concerts changes bad moods for me!

Even right now I am listening to Ella sing "Let's Do It"

Damn that woman could sing!

Blues Brothers rules!

"We're on a mission from God"
:p
Quite. ;)

- It's 106 miles to Chicago, we've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark and we're wearing sunglasses.
- Hit it!

"You keep saying that word. I do not think it means what you think it means."

That's one of my favorite lines of all time.

Brain Donors is the funniest movie i have ever seen, but i also thought that Waking Ned Divine was really funny. Space Balls is always good for a laugh too, and i think that Pirates of the Caribbean is hilarious.

"Soprano... even better..."

Okay - one of the worst 80's movie soundtracks of all time... but a hell of a funny movie, none the less...

Haha! Out of breath?

Save yours. It might be your last.

INCONCEIVABLE!

I always kind of liked:

Westley: Give us the gate key.
Yellin: I have no gate key.
Inigo Montoya: Fezzik, tear his arms off.
Yellin: Oh, you mean *this* gate key.

Miracle Max: Go away or I'll call the Brute Squad
Fezzik: I'm on the Brute Squad.
Miracle Max: You ARE the Brute Squad!

really, I love the soundtrack.

:) I didn't say I didn't like the soundtrack... but it really IS pretty terrible.

Like the soundtrack to "Electric Dreams". Both obviously horrible. Doesn't mean I didn't like them. :)

Shaun of the Dead. Funny.
Monty Python. Holy funny.
Watch a bunch of Star Trek movies and cry when Data dies.

SHAUN OF THE DEAD IS GREAT!

"Dogs can't look up, big Al says so"

I like..

Miracle Max: Go away or I'll call the Brute Squad
Fezzik: I'm on the Brute Squad.
Miracle Max: You ARE the Brute Squad!

I like the whole rhyming scene... and:


Inigo Montoya: [drawing his sword] You seem a decent fellow... I hate to kill you.
Man in Black: You seem a decent fellow... I hate to die.

I like..

Miracle Max: Go away or I'll call the Brute Squad
Fezzik: I'm on the Brute Squad.
Miracle Max: You ARE the Brute Squad!

As long as we're playing Princess Bride Quote War -

"No more rhymes now, I mean it!"
"Anybody want a peanut?"

:D

Quite. ;)
Our Lady of Blessed Acceleration, don't fail us now

I vote Blazing Saddles (or anything else with Gene Wilder), Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy.

Smunkee, we want to know what you picked.

cornetto...

Okay, I am putting the kids to bed soon, I actually already had a lot of those movies and really couldn't remember (hey, it happens when you got a collection of 800 movies)

We start with Princess Bride :D then I am watching some old episodes of The Flying Circus and I rented Three Amigos.....I still can't find my copy of that.

anyway, if this doesn't work, I am sending hubby out for some gluten free alcohol, maybe a cocktail to calm my nerves.........;)

Not a big fan of the Three Amigos, but I can't fault the other two.

Never tried The Princess Bride drunk, though... you might have to keep us posted... ;)

we got about half way through it and figured out we remembered it funnier, so we switched it out for "The Jerk" which is hilarious on it's own, but even more funny when I am tipsy

it was okay, we have been rhyming a lot lately, wonder why??

we are saving the Monty Python for tomorrow when the kids are up...they would be mad if they missed it :D

You found some good, funny movies and, I hope, are feeling better now. If you get in a funk again try The Gods Must Be Crazy. Absolutely hilarious, intelligent slapstick.

Three Amigos was one of those for me... a film you remember as being okay, but when you start watching it over...

Like all those films you saw in the 80's. :)

Can't say too many good things about The Princess Bride. It's just one of the (undersold) classics.

My little girl loves Red Dwarf... most of which is pretty safe for kids to watch, I think. It's funny how 'mature' their comedy tastes can be.

some others for later that no one mentioned that I noticed

Top Secret

Mel Brooks History of the World

Shaolin Soccer..just because
