My greatest comedies of all time:

  1. Airplane

  2. Naked Gun

  3. Blazing Saddles

  4. The Jerk

Any of those 4, and you will cry laughing.

You would also likely enjoy "Top Secret!"

It's number 5 lol. I miss Val Kilmer. What happened to him is a damn shame. Life can really be a fucker sometimes.

Christian Science is a fucker always.

Although it's made tremendous contributions to the arts by killing musicians' moms.

Other than James Hetfield noone springs to mind in the category "Musicians' moms killed by Christian science". Who else were you referring to?

They got three songs out of Maynard James Keenan alone.

Thanks. I did not know that, but after reading into it 10000 days now feels a lot more personal.

It also lends gravitas to the otherwise ooh-so-edgy "Judith" by A Perfect Circle.

I need to re-read the lyrics to that song, it's one of my favorites by APC.

You like movies about gladiators?

As someone who also loves that one and considered Airplane the best comedy, I concur. I'll also add both Hot Shots movies to that.

we should start a new thread for all time comedies.. what about Real Genius? Brain Candy? Better off Dead? Caddyshack? Something about Mary?

What's a little boy like you doing with big boy smut like this?

Ten years ago I would've added Idiocracy. 7 years ago it became a documentary.
