I Need A Comedy!

[Cassiopeia]

Alright so me and my baby are getting drunk on meade tonight and we'd like a great side-splitter to accompany it!    Suggestions anyone?  We are not opposed to "old" films either, just something that will make us tear up with laughter.

[Hunter]

Army of Darkness.   

[Oniya]

Any Jackie Chan movie.

There's also a wuxia film out there called 'Legend of the Eight Samurai' which is so badly translated it's hysterical. 

(Sample line:  I went off to become a ninja, so you would be proud of me.  See the horse?  And the armor?  Look at the sword!)

[MasterMischief]

Have you seen Stripes?

"Are either of you homosexuals?"
"No, but we're willing to learn."

[Oniya]

Oh - and just about anything by Mel Brooks.

[MasterMischief]

Oh - and just about anything by Mel Brooks.

History of the World, Part I

[Cassiopeia]

I've actually been leading towards a Mel Brooks movie ... but all these suggestions are great, keep em coming!

[MasterMischief]

Not a movie, but Eddie Izzard.

I claim this land in the name of England.
You can't claim it.  We live here.
Yes, but do you have a flag?

[Cassiopeia]

Have him saved on my Netflix instant que <.< *refuses to use the superfluous extra "ue"*

[Wolfy]

Anything by Tom Cruise or Mel Gibson..especially now that we know how insane they are.

Just look at them trying to act all serious, when beneath that exterior lies the heart of insanity.

I've heard good things about "The Hangover"...but I've never seen it myself.

[Cassiopeia]

It was quite hilarious actually ... don't think he's seen it so good suggestion 

[Kunoichi]

Ghostbusters and its sequel are both good.

[Serephino]

Secondhand Lions.  It's got both adventure and comedy. 

[Cassiopeia]

Thanks for the suggestions guys!  We wound up watching Roxanne, which is a great movie, and were going to watch some Mel Brooks after ... but I kinda passed out <.<  At least now we have a great list for next time! =D

[HairyHeretic]

If you want a classic, the Marx Brothers 'Duck Soup'.

Monty Python is always good .. I could watch the stoning scene or Biggus Dickus from the Life of Brian a dozen times over, and crack up each time. The Holy Grail is also great.

Jackie Chan is good, but I prefer his older stuff ... for pure laughs though, City Hunter.

Shaolin Soccer and Kung Fu Hustle are a lot of fun, with over the top wuxia silliness.

[Sophyta]

Spaceballs.  How's that.  There are many more..

[Inkidu]

The Blues Brothers.

[RubySlippers]

Just saw it - KICK ASS. Available at most better Blockbuster Expresses and Redboxes, not sure of Netflix.

Its just AWESOME especially Hit Girl the 11 year old death machine.

[HairyHeretic]

True. Hit Girl is exceptionally entertaining.

[Cassiopeia]

Zomg I've been wanting to see that so bad! =D  This may call for more meade and another movie night!
