Friday OT #1 - The Aristocrats

[MeanDean]

I have two lists, one more recent movies, and then a list from the golden age, just cuzz.

I love Mel Brooks stuff at first, but it loses a lot of luster for repeat viewings for me.

The Great Race
Victor Victoria
Galaxy Quest
Best in Show
Ghostbusters


The Philadelphia Story
The Lady Eve
Harvey
It Happened One Night
Ball of Fire

Finally saw this on TCM a year or so ago. I do enjoy catching a pre 1960's classic. Yes, good stuff!

 

[ImJustKCClone]

No particular order, and seven because I simply can't whittle it down any farther:
Dave
King Ralph
The Russians Are Coming, the Russians Are Coming
Galaxy Quest
Animal House
Hiding Out
Necessary Roughness

And some Golden Oldies because @runbikeswim opened the floodgates:
It Happened One Night
I Was a Male War Bride
Bringing Up Baby
Operation Petticoat
Father Goose
Walk, Don't Run

I'm a sucker for Cary Grant. Deal with it!

Not sure I could stray away from Father Goose either.

 

[oldman]

Believe it or not, I've never seen Spinal Tap. Looks like I'm going to have to.

 

[ImJustKCClone]

How could you resist Goody Two Shoes and the Filthy Beast?

 

[VeloClone]

Monty Python's Holy Grail
Blazing Saddles
The Princess Bride
Caddyshack
Ferris Bueller's Day Off

HM: Spinal Tap; Young Frankenstein; Animal House; The Big Lebowski; Office Space

Practically impossible to pare it down to just 5...

 

[runbikeswim]

My "whenever they are on TV" list is way different than my Top 5 favorite comedies of All-Time, so here are the 5 comedies that I would watch anytime they were on TV:

Agree, these are different lists.
