I am so happy to hear this news as I just took a picture of the original Ghostbusters’ carat a movie and tv car convention. Woo hoo! Get to use that bad boy again.
Top ten funniest movies of all time. Here’s the list:
- Ghostbusters
- National Lampoon’s Vacation
- Beverly Hills Cop
- This Is Spinal Tap
- Office Space
- South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut
- There’s Something About Mary
- The Big Lebowski
- A Fish Called Wanda
- Dazed & Confused
Who is missing? Who shouldn’t be there? What is your absolute favorite funny movie of all time?









1) The original “Bedazzled” with Dudley Moore and Peter Cook.
2) “Half-Baked” with David Chappelle
3) “Up in Smoke”, with Cheech & Chong. “Hard Hat! Hard Hat!”
4) The original “Father of the Bride”, starring Spencer Tracy and Elizabeth Taylor. The dream sequence always brightens up my lousy day.

dazed and confused??? REALLY?
I think Galaxy Quest is missing from this list. I still laugh everytime…
“Is there air?! You don’t know! You don’t know!”
airplane?
Ghostbuster was funny, but not THAT funny. To me, anyway.
I agree Dumb & Dumber is one of the funniest movies ever, but I know so many people who hate it. Zoolander is for sure hilarious. And I actually found the remake of “Bedazzled” (with Brendan Fraser and Elizabeth Hurley) pretty funny as well, but I think I’m the only person on the planet who did.
Caddyshack is the obvious omission as it should be #1.
Omgosh! The MONEY PIT!! Hilarious
yes Uncle Buck, Borat. But Caddyshack definitely belongs on the list, especially over South Park.
American Pie.
American Pie.
Old School, how did that not make the list?
I agree with Dumb and Dumber,Zoolander, Office Space, and Airplane for sure!! The Party with Peter Sellers is also hilarious. As are Beer Fest, Super Troopers, Old School, The Burbs, Orange County ah the list goes on… Oh, you know what is a surprisingly hilarious movie is Some Like it Hot.
Seriously Ghostbusters?!?!? Caddyshack definelty belongs on the list, but how about Animal House? Bravo did the top 50 funniest movies of all time and it was number 1 and i have to agree.
omg how about “My favorite year” “Kingpin” techinally anything with Bill Murray is awesome! And the same goes for Mel Brooks!!!!!
The Man Who Knew too Little…Bill Murray
Dumb & Dumber!!!!!!
The Birdcage
Spies like us…
What about Bob?
The most obvious ommissions are “Raising Arizona” and “Best in Show”
I thought the exact same thing, I would not have ranked half of these movies in the top 25, let alone top 10. What about Weekend at Bernie’s, Cannonball Run? Animal House?
Caddyshack and Animal House are both funnier than anything on this list. And how about showing some love for Groucho and Duck Soup.
What about Airplane! That movie is a classic and funnier than all of those!!
Meet the Parents!!!! I never laughed so hard. I almost peed my pants.
I love all those movies. But, in my humble opinion three are missing: Airplane, In and Out and… The Evil Dead: Army of Darkness. Then there the other outstanding comedies: Caddyshack, Animal House, Fletch movies, Uncle Buck, Planes Trains and Automobiles, Beetlejuice, National Lampoons Christmas Vacation, Nerds, Tommy Boy, Airheads, Beavis and Butthead do America, Life of Brian, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, the old Mel Brooks movies….. (can’t think of anymore right now). I think ten is a bad number when it comes to great comedy.
OMG Where is Blazing Saddles and Young Frankenstein!!!?????
Blues Brothers, Uncle Buck, & Caddieshack all should be represented.
and how about kicking and sceaming with will ferrel i cried soooo much during that movie .. had to pause it like 5 times !!! o so much funnier than ghostbuster … and who is in some like it hot ?
It’s this old movie with Jack Lemmon, Marilyn Monroe, and Tony Curtis. Jack Lemmon is unbelievably funny and cute in it. I have never been interested in old movies but one of my husband’s students used it in a presentation last year. He ended up borrowing it from the kid and we loved it! I was really surprised!
thanks i `ll try to check it out at the video store but i doubt i`ll find it !!!
I love all those movies…..I own them all except number 9!
Dude, where’s my car?
your kidding right? that movie sux. The Princess Bride is my favorite funny movie. “ROUS’? I don’t believe they exist…..”
Ghostbusters was funny, but I’m surprised it got #1. What about Caddyshack????
Speaking of 80s and 90s comedies, what about “Planes, Trains and Automobiles”, “Uncle Buck” and all other John Candy movies? As for movies of today, “The Wedding Crashers” and “Knocked Up” were also some of my favourites.
Zoolander
I love Office Space. Planes, Trains & Automobiles was fun movie but the ending was sad.
Office Space was really funny. It deserves to be there for sure.
Dumb and Dumber? HELLO??????
Fletch? Brady Bunch Movies? Coming to America??
Moving – with Richard Pryor and Dana Carvey, Mr. Wrong with Ellen Degeneres, and I love the Hugh Grant movies like Notting Hill and 4 Weddings and a Funeral. I just watched a great one this weekend called ‘Death at a Funeral”. It was great!!!
And then First Sunday with Katt Williams. If you don’t know Katt Williams, you don’t know funny.
Where is TommyBoy?????
just friends was good too ok it was just anna faris that was hilarious
Wedding CRASHERS!
How about Superbad? I thought that was funny.
Anchorman makes me laugh every time I watch it! And what about Space Balls?
Ferris Bueller’s Day Off
Big
School of Rock
–all modern classics!!!
DUMB AND DUMBER!!!! I can’t believe it was overlooked.
I would add Raising Arizona and 1941 to the list.
Spinal Tap and National Lampoon’s Vacation are the ONLY qualifiers for truly “funny.”
Better classics: Caddyshack, Fletch, National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation, Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure, Cannonball Run, Clerks, 16 Candles, Every Which Way But Loose, Black Sheep, Tommy Boy, Up the Creek…
will ferrell/bill murray. end of story.
My favorite comedy of all time is called “What’s Up Doc?”
It is hilarious!
