    Top 5
    Animal House
    Big Lebowski
    Pulp Fiction
    Office Space
    Tommy Boy


    Animal House makes me laugh harder and more often than any other movie. So many other movies have ripped it off it probably seems cliche to a lot of the younger folks, but it's hands down my favorite comedy.
    So you click their picture and then you get their money?

    Planes Trains and Automobiles is hilarious! That definitely gets added to my top five.

    And Borat lol. I think the Ali G show is at least as good if not better though.

    I didn't like Office Space as much as everyone else, apparently. Maybe i need to rewatch it.


    Are Jack and i the lone Leslie Nielsen fans here?

    I have never laughed out loud as much in my life as when I watched 40 year old virgin

    Old School is great too.

    For a classic, I love LA Story. Subtle humor > slapstick....
