The Best Comedy Movies of All Time?
“Variety” put together a list of the 100 best comedy movies of all time. And their pick for #1. . . “The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad!” But this had me scratching my head, they put “Airplane!” at #62 (which doesn’t make much sense, since ALL of the Naked Gun movies and series, were influenced by the style of humor from “Airplane” and BOTH starred Leslie Nielsen ???). Here’s their Top 5 . . .
- “The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad!”, 1988
- “Some Like It Hot”, 1959
- “Annie Hall”, 1977
- “The Great Dictator”, 1940
- “Waiting for Guffman”, 1996
A few others making the Top 10, “Monty Python and the Holy Grail”, at #6, and “Young Frankenstein”, at #9. But if you ask me, any list that DOESN’T have “Blazing Saddles” in the top 3 . . . is NOT a very good list! Click HERE to check out their entire list.
