In very recent years, movies that seriously cracked me up:
Zoolander
40-Year-Old Virgin
Blades of Glory

Kung Fu Hustle
Clay Pigeons
Rushmore
The Royale Tenenbaums
Best In Show


Movies that had funny moments, but the parts were greater than the whole:
Anchorman
Step Brothers


My personal favorites of Woody Allen:
Love and Death
Sleeper
Take the Money and Run
Annie Hall
Mid Summer Night's Sex Comedy


Older Gems:
Bringing Up Baby
Animal Crackers
A Night at the Opera
Arsenic and Old Lace
Some Like It Hot


Ones you've probably seen (or if you haven't, you SHOULD):
Caddyshack
Young Frankenstein
Monty Python and the Holy Grail
Animal House
The Princess Bride
The Jerk
Roxanne
Airplane!
Raising Arizona
This Is Spinal Tap
Ghostbusters
A Fish Called Wanda

Oh, well, you're very WELCOME, Step, it's my pleasure! Gee, no need to flatter me like that, but it will get you EVERYWHERE.


:p

I recommend Run Ronnie Run from the guys of Mr Show. It's brilliantly funny. Also, Kids in the Hall Brain Candy is worth some great laughs.

I just watched Pineapple Express and thought it was hystarical. Don't know if that's the type of comedy you're looking for though.

Any out of the Scary Movie series, tickle your fancy? And are you more of a comedy movie person or do you prefer standup? Who are your fave comedians? What kind of humor are you into? That should help us, help you. :)

If you like Carlin, Denis Leary standup is always excellent. I'm a big fan of both.

Most of my suggestions have already been named...

Big Lebowski
Pineapple Express
Kung Fu Hustle
Super Troopers
Airplane!
The Naked Gun
Something About Mary
Dogma
Trainspotting

Yep, I think I know the problem, I've seen almost every funny movie ever made... But there are a few that have been sugested I wasn't aware of...
