Lacking — 17 weeks ago

Too much Cary Grant and Woody Allen, no Adam Sandler or Jim Carrey… you might not like Sandler but to not give either one of them a single nod on this list??

My Bad,didn't see them there. — 23 weeks ago

Young Frankenstein & Blazing Saddles

What about Mel Brooks movies — 23 weeks ago

Blazing Saddles? Young Frankenstein?


Topper correction — 46 weeks ago

Replaced #60, “Topper/Topper Returns” with “Topper.” Topper Returns was not on the AFI list.


Sherlock, Jr. — 1 year ago

Replaced the combo version of Our Hospitality/Sherlock, Jr. with only Sherlock, Jr. to better reflect the original list.

leslie neilsen — 1 year ago

how come none of the naked gun movies aren’t here? they are the funniest. he is so funny for someone his age.


The Dude Abides — 1 year ago

a) men died in Nam, face down in the dirt just so we can have good commedies on this list.
b) what about what about bob? Is that American?


Need to include Joe Dirt — 2 years ago

Joe Dirt is a classic


Missing a couple.... — 2 years ago

I agree…. Lebowski needs to be in this list. Along with “The Party” (Peter Sellers) and “Dirty Rotten Scoundrels” (Steve Martin/Micheal Cane)


I'm with the dude.... — 2 years ago

Where the hell is Lebowski?
